Interesting. The blurb about MySysInf is a little confusing. I haven't seen a clearer blurb. Maybe there is one in the ZIP file.
The first confusing thing is that the blurb seems to call it MySysInf one place and Fetch4FD another. And the URL calls it Fetch4FD (apparently the old name). Googling for MSD gets a lot of unrelated hits. Here's a useful description <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Diagnostics> MySysInf is a port of a BASH script called Neofetch <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neofetch> The program lists a bunch of interesting things about your System. There seem to be a lot of variants of this program! I've added an entry for fetch4fd and MySysInf to the Wikipedia page. I would think that the code for discovering low level resources would be very different for Linux and DOS. Porting this code must have been hard. | From: Karen Lewellen via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | To: talk@gtalug.org | Cc: Karen Lewellen <klewel...@shellworld.net> | Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2024 13:37:24 -0400 (EDT) | Subject: [GTALUG] A dos port of the Linux program neofetch. | | Hi folks, | I may only end up using Linux via dos ssh into Linux shells, but boy am I | happy when someone ports a Linux tool for DOS. | | https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/news/2024/03/fetch4fd-system-info-program/ | | My goal was something comparative to MSD, and Poof! | Cheers, | Karen --- Post to this mailing list talk@gtalug.org Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
