FreeCom only compiles in small model (see below). I think at one time
at least the suppl library could use small or large, but I don't know if
that is still true or not.

wait while it compiles
I am getting this error 12 times:
Error: Segment _TEXT exceeds 64k
it happens at a link operation, but I am not sure if it is command.exe
I gess that this would be because of debug but it is off in config.h,
where else could it be?
this is because the executable is too big for small mode. You need to
comment out some of the features in config.h to get it small enough.
(The size of the critical error translations also effect the size, with
english being the smallest. Figuring out why it effects the building of
command.exe/bin is what is delaying the 0.84 release.) This is why I
compile a feature complete 186+ version (the 186 optimizations make the
compiled code just small enough for a few more options) and a less
featureful 8086+ version on fdos.org. I have to go to work at the
moment (running late as it is), but tommorrow I will have a look at the
default config.h (mines modified for the options I like) and give you
some suggestions there (or you can search the archives, the ones
used/disabled for my releases should be mentioned).
if on windows and it fails, run clean and build step again
copy command.com to where you want it
Not windows, Linux=dosemu+FreeDOS :)
:-) this was more for anyone looking through archives or just watching
the list (hi folks :-)
--- repeat these last couple of steps (after a call to clean.bat) if
you make changes or want a different set of options (language, swap
method, or you modified config.h again).
ok
