Hello all,

Today I have published a new version of SvarCOM, the future COMMAND.COM shell of the SvarDOS distribution. SvarCOM version 2022.0 brings lots of improvements:

 - prompt doesn't breaks when current drive becomes invalid
 - piping support (like DIR/B | SORT)
 - DIR: fixed /P pagination in wide mode
 - DIR: implemented /A
 - added "global executable links" support (new command: LN)
 - implemented IF command (IF EXIST, IF ERRORLEVEL, IF str==str)
 - added a break handler (applications can be aborted with CTRL+C)
 - DOS error messages are output to stderr

I use SvarCOM as my daily DOS shell now, albeit it still misses a couple of important things:
 - advanced batch controls (CALL, FOR, GOTO)
 - an int 24h handler ("abort, retry, ignore...")
 - DIR /O and DIR /S

Hopefully, the above pieces will be part of the next release, which will then become a candidate to become the default SvarDOS shell.

For the time being, SvarCOM can be downloaded on the project's homepage:
