[Freedos-devel] Kernel version

I've an idea, as the official MEM of FreeDOS, is it good to include
the FreeCOM and Kernel information also?
I got a bit annoy because when I want to check Kernel version I have
to reboot, and I don't prefer to have another tool just check for
Kernel and FreeCOM.
I wrote some time ago a small program to show FreeDOS kernel version.
It really should be part of Freecom ;-)
it was tested in BC31. I have the .exe if you want it
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <dos.h>
int main(void)
{
  int i;
  char far *p;
  union REGS regs;
  regs.x.ax = 0x3000;
  int86(0x21, &regs, &regs);             /* check oem-id            */
  if (regs.h.bh==0xfd){
    printf("FreeDOS detected: Int21/30 says OEM-ID=0fdh\n");
    printf(" Dos verion = %d.%d\n",regs.h.al,regs.h.ah);
    printf(" Kernel version %d.%d.%d\n",regs.h.ch,regs.h.cl,regs.h.bl);
    regs.x.ax = 0x33ff;
    int86(0x21, &regs, &regs);           /* get version string      */
    p = (char far*)MK_FP(regs.x.dx,regs.x.ax);
    if ( *(int far*)p == 0x7246)         /* fast string checking "Fr" */
      printf(" %Fs\n",p);
  }else{
    printf("NOT FreeDOS: Int21/30 says OEM-ID=0%02xh\n",regs.h.bh&0xff);
    return !(regs.h.bh==0xfd);           /* error level               */
  }
  return 0;
}
