I don't normally use IDEs. The very few times I do, I use TC++101 instead (which has less bugs and is noticeably faster code). While Embarcadero has annoying restrictions, you can still allegedly download (newer) TC++ but maybe have to (also) download (Windows) trialware/bloatware first. So please try that, it's a better choice. https://edn.embarcadero.com/article/21751 Just for completeness, you can dual boot MS-DOS and FreeDOS with MetaKern. But I don't think it's necessary, and I'd honestly be surprised if this was truly a kernel bug. The only quirk I remember hearing about in recent years was slowdown (in Borland IDEs) due to FDAPM, but that can be worked around by using "ADV:REG" instead. Sorry if that's not quite the perfect solution you want to hear. Honestly, we have so many other compilers that few consider Borland tools that crucial anymore. (I know some people prefer them, but we don't *need* them, thankfully.) If all you want is error checking (jump to compiler errors in editor), I think even a DJGPP compile of JED supported that. Heck, a lot of text editors (TPE?) also supported such error-jumping. http://texteditors.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?TPE Normally, since it is OSI-approved and supports cross-compilation, OpenWatcom is preferred for FreeDOS development. It doesn't come with a (DOS) IDE, only a vi clone. IIRC, although I only tried it maybe once, there was also an old third-party (DOS, Watcom) IDE called PowerView, which you can find (and sources) on Simtel mirror under /pgmutl/ (pvide50.zip, pvidesrc.zip): http://cd.textfiles.com/simtel0101/simtel/pgmutl/ Other than that, I don't know what to tell you.
