Also, now at given URL available CLIB.7Z archive. This archive contains C RTL (runtime library) sources - this is copy of /bld/clib sub-tree from OW sources (ftp://ftp.openwatcom.org/watcom/source/open_watcom_1.5.0-src.zip), but without makefiles. Purpose of this archive is to ease access to RTL sources - (1) browsing RTL sources sometime may shed light on some obscure questions, related to RTL functions usage and behavior, (2) they are good source for educating different techniques of writing in C, and (3) having RTL sources, you may prepare stripped-down versions of functions from there (unfortunately, bigger functionality of OW RTL in compare with Borland's compilers makes negative impact on programs size). PS: Archive packed by 7-Zip - freeware, GPLed archiver. With it, resulting archive size is 5 times less, than in .ZIP, and 20% less, than in .RAR. PPS: I think, compiler archives from above-mentioned URL may be included into FreeDOS distributions. Of course, there not need to include all 80 archives (57 Mb) - for FreeDOS is sufficient to include archives, which are hosted and target to DOS (41 files, 14 Mb - DOS/16 and DOS/32 programming in C and C++, with helps, sources, debugger and DOS extenders): DESCRIPT.ION LICENSE.TXT README.TXT CM_CORE_ALL.ZIP CM_CORE_DOS.ZIP CM_CORE_DOSWIN.ZIP CORE_ALL.ZIP CORE_DOSWIN.ZIP C_DOSWIN.ZIP CPP_DOSWIN.ZIP EXT_CAUSEWAY.ZIP EXT_DOS32A.ZIP EXT_DOS4GW.ZIP EXT_PMODEW.ZIP CM_DBG_ALL.ZIP CM_DBG_DOS.ZIP CM_DBG_DOSWIN.ZIP CM_DBG_DOSOS2.ZIP CM_DBG_MISC1.ZIP CM_CLIB_HDR.ZIP CM_CLIB_A16.ZIP CLIB_A16.ZIP CM_CLIB_A32.ZIP CM_CLIB_D16.ZIP CLIB_D16.ZIP CM_CLIB_D32.ZIP PLIB_HDR.ZIP CM_PLIB_A16.ZIP PLIB_A16.ZIP CM_PLIB_A32.ZIP PLIB_A32.ZIP CM_HLP_DOS.ZIP HLP_DOS.ZIP CM_IDE_ALL.ZIP CM_IDE_DOS.ZIP IDE_SAMPLES.ZIP CM_SAMPLES.ZIP CLIB_SAMPLES.ZIP PLIB_SAMPLES.ZIP MISC_SRC.ZIP CLIB.7Z ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
