Re: [Freedos-user] DOS software
Ah - I still have my MagnaRAM diskette around somewhere - (also had RAMgate) - loved that on my AU$400, second-hand 486DX running Win3.1, circa 1995. With PlannetCrafters enhanced GUI software (last seen on Vetusware, IIRC), I felt that my setup was so smooth I had no need to upgrade to Win98 etc 'til after 2000!

Hi Eric: One of your pictures shows MagnaRAM: How did you like it, in Win3 / Win95 actually? I doubt that I ever installed it. Like I said, a lot of that stuff was acquired because it looked like it might be useful. Most I ever got around to playing with.

Hi Ray, > I have posted pics of some stuff. ... > https://photos.app.goo.gl/aTdSyfEHbbdhKkxV7 One of your pictures shows MagnaRAM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QEMM#MagnaRAM WinWorld says "MagnaRAM, from Quarterdeck Corporation, is a utility that speeds up virtual memory swapping by compressing swap memory, maintaining a swap "buffer", and making use of unused disk cache memory. Unlike some similar products, this one reportedly does something. It competed against similar tools such as SoftRam, Hurricane, and RAM Doubler." How did you like it, in Win3 / Win95 actually?

Hi. Thanks for the feedback. Jim, if the FreeDOS MediaWiki can also be used to create the DOS software catalog, I will help from time to time. I can try to make pages for: - Software - Authors - Companies For the Software pages I will do a similar categorization (subcategories) like the OS2World wiki. ( https://www.os2world.com/wiki/index.php/Category:Software) Also maybe making a wiki template for applications with general information. Let me know if it can be possible.

But there haven't been many of those, unfortunately. I contact companies every few months to ask about releasing the source code to their old DOS products. The answer is too often "No" - mostly because they do not have the full sources to the old DOS product they stopped maintaining in the mid-to-late 1990s. A few times the "No" was because they knew (or suspected) the DOS application used licensed 3rd party stuff and they didn't want to go through the effort to clean it up and remove the 3rd party stuff - too much risk for no reward. When the answer is "No" I instead ask if they will release the program as "free/gratis" software, like TRIUS did with As-Easy-As spreadsheet. Sometimes they are willing to do that. We used to have a central source hub for many FreeDOS projects, long ago, but the coordination between developers kind of dwindled as some folks dropped off and others picked up code, and we don't have a central source code hub anymore.
