Jim? [..] Yes, it's linked from the "Links" page under "Technical Information." Note that I want to eliminate the "Links" page when I make the next change to the FreeDOS website, and put these links where people will actually find them. Having a "Links" page is basically a "misc" page where everything goes and no one can find it.

If you start from duckduckgo, you can prefix your query by "!g" to search on google, so it is easy to leave for individual queries without clicking around or entering other search landing page URLs. I have no problems with any of my Google searches. Even if it is for some rather esoteric topics like ancient (by IT standards) compression methods and source codes, Google gets my useful answers better than DuckDuckGo or Bing, by a wide margin. It is the later two that usually result in more questions than answers and I avoid them like the plague. Yes, sometimes you get the question if you really meant what you entered, and the most common options for me are either to ignore those or realize that I might have made a typo. Big f'ing deal.
