     See underlined words above. With empty environment FreeCOM (whic is

     You mean "Arkady called MS-DOS-style empty environment broken"? Yes, I
call this. But this is MS-DOS and all its bugs become standard and called
"feature". For example, INT25/26. There is bug, but you _should_ imitate and
workaround this.

     WHERE I MAY DOWNLOAD COMPILED FIXED VERSION OF FreeCOM? Very need. :(

     :( Of course, you have no contract, but hidding fixed version makes
repeatable question "why FreeDOS is wrong" (for example, as reported by
Alain: FreeCOM reports "out of memory"). [Note: not all may access CVS or
recompile version from CVS, thus not prepare to download compiled version
makes it equal to hiding.]

     BTW, is there ANYONE, who may recompile for me FreeCOM from CVS?! Then
I will use it myself and redistribute when other users will ask.
