Hi All,
Fixed a minor issue in Logger, that would cause the interface program to not
find the device driver when it was loaded low.
At present, the interface program just does a brute force memory scan to find
the driver. There are safeguards in place to prevent false positives and some
optim
Hi All,
Logger is done for now and is available for testing. I’ve only done testing
under FreeDOS and a little under MS-DOS. If it works under others, thats fine.
If not, oh well.
While it is not difficult to use, be sure to check out the DOC and DEMOS. There
are some sort-of neat little thin

I don't know how and why vecho displays text different. However it
could "display" the text twice: once in the complicate
Hi All,
Logger is coming along very well and is already semi-functional.
At present, the driver loads, allocates XMS storage and takes control of what
it needs. Also, the rudimentary logging works and it can log most text during
boot process. The interface program can print the log and turn o

Oh oh. I was mistaken. It was Dave Dunfield's MC323EXA.ZIP with the files
./DOSUTIL/REDIRECT.TXT
./DOSUTIL/RERROR.C
./DOSUTIL/ROUTPUT.C
RERROR handles stderr capture via DOS.
ROUTPUT handles ALL text capture via BIOS.

I forget which one and which version, but it had the ability to
redirect the blacked out screen to a file. Been a long while since I
looked at them.

Don’t blackout and bootsplash do something like this?

Hi All,
I decided I needed to take a break from my current project and do something
relatively easy and fun.
So, I’ve begun working on a Boot Message Logger. Hopefully, it will be ready
for T2304.
That just depends on if I can find the time to finish it up by that Build.
If not, it will de
Right, same basic idea. I guess the main difference is using the spare video
memory as a starting buffer, but regular ol' RAM would be fine too. :)

I realize this may be more trouble than it's worth, but it's technically
possible to write up a small "shim" program which simply hooks the character
printing interrupts and copies any characters passed to a small memory buffer*
before forwarding them to the regular printing interrupt. This shim

At present, that is not really practical. Actually for a lot of the boot
processes
So you want a TEE utility? Or just to single step through it all (F8)?
Try pressing the Pause key. (Yes, I know that's timing sensitive,
sorry.)

It would be nice if FreeDOS had something like *nix's DMESG.

So many messages on boot I cannot scroll back.
If only the boot process would also copy everything in a boot.log file!___
