[Freedos-user] please do never send files to a mailing list
Eric, I noticed the remark in the Xen posting, please do never send files to a mailing list. I think that this implies the need for a hosted discussion group arrangement. That will preserve the history of discussions which I think has benefits for this group. Given a history it would be possible given a really good archive search, quicker answers to well know questions and associated replies. Threads can have comments added at any time, either immediately or even years later. If something happens to the maintainers such as an injury or worse other could be found to take their places. It would allow for a structured organization of question groups. It would not require each list member to maintain the archive of the questions and replies. It would also allow relevant files to be stored within the archive. Does sourceforge.net have this facility or would you have to go elsewhere to get these features? -- John S.

Hi John, I noticed the remark in the Xen posting, please do never send files to a mailing list. I think that this implies the need for a hosted discussion group arrangement. That will preserve the history of discussions which I think has benefits for this group. Well there already is an archive for our mailing lists on the web :-) http://www.mail-archive.com/freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=freedos-user Given a history it would be possible given a really good archive search, quicker answers to well know questions and associated replies. See above :-). Threads can have comments added at any time, either immediately or even years later. You can do the same with email, but if I understand your suggestion correctly, then you introduce the problem that comments would live in www space while the original mails live in email space. So I would say I prefer if people just reply to emails at any time ;-). Using interfaces like nabble allows you to reply even to old archived mails even without you ever having received that mail by mail, I believe? If something happens to the maintainers such as an injury or worse other could be found to take their places. It would allow for a structured organization of question groups. It would not require each list member to maintain the archive of the questions and replies. All mentioned benefits are available with a normal mailing list and a web archive for it, as the ones we already have :-). It would also allow relevant files to be stored within the archive. While this is theoretically true, I must say I myself never visit group webpages of for example the yahoo lists which I am reading by email. It is just very convenient to get the mail by mail without having to log in somewhere or check some webpage to see whether a new posting has shown up etc ;-). Does sourceforge.net have this facility or would you have to go elsewhere to get these features? Actually we already do use this facility, which is another good reason to believe that people do not actually gain from forums: http://www.freedos.org/ Look at the news items and the read more links. Each news item starts a thread in a sourceforge forum: This thread http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=789150 for example discusses new fat32 undelete. Jim posted a comment three weeks ago, but I only noticed this week, by accident, as the comment did not automatically get to my mailbox, as opposed to what a reply to an email would have done ;-). We also have a Wiki, even two of them, a Sourceforge feature request tracking system, Bugzilla bug mgmt system and a FAQ which would work better if more people would notice when a new question has arrived and would help by answering it :-). In addition, you can meet on our IRC (there even is a Java client if you have no IRC). There are several NNTP newsgroups and you can visit the general DOS web forum of Robert :-). There are also several reference sections like LSM package list (versions, maintainers, URLs...) and SVN source code repository with www interface for easy browsing. As you can see: Information sources and places to share your FreeDOS experience with others abound, all over the net... Happy FreeDOS easter everybody!

Re: [Freedos-user] Help linking to Borland Turbo C project to external object file ?

ST How do we tell the Borland development environemt that we need to link to ST this OBJ ? If you mean TC IDE, then open Project menu and press F1. Then you will read: In its simplest form, the project file is just a list of the C source file names that make up your program. Also, take a look at examples of TC2 - there is, for example, mcalc.prj.

For example, read HELPME!.DOC, especially next topic: Q. Why does the linker tell me that all the graphics library routines are undefined? A.
