There is already a version 1.1.0. But, I think it only has the improved English

I am one step further. I installed dosfstools via zypper and ran the RBE
install script again. It showed the following output:
required lower permissions for creating DOS filessystems.
'/usr/sbin/mkfs.msdos' -> '/home/rbe/bin/make-dosfs'
required lower permissions for labeling DOS filessystems.
Hi Bernd,
So…
I booted the (Windows 10) machine that I use for creating FreeDOS builds. (Host
OS should not be relevant.)
There was an update to VirtualBox. So, I installed that and the related new
extension pack.
( Following the instructions in the RBE’s Wiki. Except for CPU’s, I went with 2

Hi Jerome,
it currently fails at:
tools/common: line 1075: make-dosfs: command not found
I am currently searching for the make-dosfs executable.//It is not under
the builder directory, and I have not found it as an external command in
the open suse package repo. Can you confirm that this is p

Hi Eric,

The speed up of the table lookup is about factor 3. However, there are still
some bottlenecks in the tag / entity substitution code (not the UTF to codepage
translation). The code makes heavy use of memmove and realloc, doi
Hi Bernd,
thanks for all those fixes in HTMLHELP!
How much faster are Unicode and HTML entity translation now?
I would NOT remove the ZIP feature, because a typical help zip
contains more than 100 files, with a median length of just 1 kB
uncompressed. This would waste a lot of disk space with
Hi Andy,

If you ask me, it would be great to keep a working HTML
based help viewer around. The format has the advantage
that people already know HTML and can contribute content
and translations easily. AMB converted versions are nice

Hello,
I started working on getting HTMLHELP building with OpenWatcom because I
don't have access to Borland C++ 3.1 in preparation for fixing some bugs.
This was around the same time that Mateusz released the AMB format and
converted the FreeDOS help HTML files to that format.
Should I continue
Hi Tom,
Of course I meant Fritz Mueller who does have a lot
of experience in using HTMLHELP and working with help
texts for it. So I trust him that those bugs do exist.
He just is not on the mailing list, so I am forwarding.
You wondered whether bugs depend on configuration: One
of the bugs is

or could this be dependend on the Fritz's configuration?
