I noticed that Davide released mKEYB 0.50 on his GitHub about a week
or so ago. Tom mentioned this mKEYB back in early April ("Davide
Bresolin taught mKEYB to run on PC's and XT's") so I've been keeping
an eye on it.
Here's the GitHub release:

Since the release of FreeDOS 1.3 RC5, I haven't seen any discussion about
outdated or broken packages in RC5. (To be clear, I've seen some
discussions about packages, but these seem to have been resolved as either

I updated the Wordy word-puzzle game to create a number-based puzzle
called Codebreaker. The concept is similar: You have 5 attempts to
guess a random 5-digit number. Each number is only used once.
It sounds simple but can be difficult since you only have 5 guesses.
(6 guesses made it too easy.)

I wrote a quick sample game that is kind of fun, so wanted to share it.
Wordy is a word puzzle game for DOS. You have six attempts to guess
the mystery five-letter word. After each guess, the game highlights
your letters: black if that letter does not exist in the mystery word,

Over the last few days, I decided to write a little game, and I wanted
to share it. I call it "PvP Gem" ["Player vs Player Gem"] and it's a
two-player match-3 game.
In this game, two players take turns. You select a "gem," that gem is
destroyed, and you get a point. Other gems fill

Hello,
I released FDTUI 0.6 yesterday.
Thanks to everyone who joined today's FreeDOS virtual get-together! Folks
dropped in and out as they had time, and I think we had a dozen folks total
who joined.
Great opportunity for live debugging and testing.
We'll do it again in 2022!
