Re: [Freedos-user] [XT] Bug found - zip utility
error? Unzip successfully unzips a file from the ODIN disk; slowly, of course - it's an XT :) One cool thing you could try (although it won't work for zip), is using EMU386 to emulate a 386 on a 286. This will probably not work for most programs becuase the docs say it only works if 1) only real mode is used, and 2) the program does not check the CPU. Here is a link: http://members.tripod.com/~survpc/emu386/ It'd be very interesting if the source ever became available; it could possibly be expanded to support PM and apps that check the CPU type. --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
