Thank you tkchia!

This looks like a tool very good for using from a script/text ui and also it is very small (your exe ~17k).

What about having watcom producing a com file? This would save a few bytes for the exe header. As exe is not necessary (I assume) this would be nice. Is there are reason for having exe?

I upxed it and now it is 11578bytes in size. I've put it on a freedos-bootdisk and will test it on real hardware soon (pentium mmx/32gb cf-ide, 386sx/120MB, 486/8.2GB).

upx commandline was: upx -9 --8086 aefdisk.exe

Did you test this on real hardware or in a emulator?

Hello all,

But I opened a ticket for Nagy Daniel
(https://github.com/nagydjol/aefdisk/issues/1)
Asking his tasm/borland c compiler
Maybe we could integrate it on freedos repository or even deprecate
our fdisk in favor of aefdisk in future
Thank you!  I am also curious to know which version(s) of tasm can be used to build the program. I have meanwhile also made a first-cut attempt (https://github.com/tkchia/aefdisk) to "downgrade" the assembler syntax

I have successfully got aefdisk to cross-build with Open Watcom (on a Linux build machine).  I uploaded a binary at https://github.com/tkchia/aefdisk/releases/tag/1.0-opensource-openwatcom-port .

Thank you!
