Great news. :-)
I created an “unstable” branch in the FreeDOS GitLab Archive. That way the new
version will be in the next Interim Test Build for every one to try out.
I did make a few minor adjustments to the LSM file. Mostly for compatible with
the current automated maintenance utilities. For example, most of those tools
can properly deal with multiple line entries. However, I can be lazy at times
and a few other less important tools ignore text that is not preceded by a
field identifier.
Also, I noticed that you did not included the help translations from FD-NLS in
the zip. So, I just included them. Although, I forget if TREE displays those
versions of help when using a different language.
I’ll definitely have to give it a try.

Looking forward to that as well. :-)
