I merged in this message feedback I got from people at fd-user list about my comment that Pictview does not work under Freedos.
EA>Hi Jas, Arkady, the described problem (on freedos-user) sounds like EA>the "findfirst/findnext has the wrong treatment for attribute selection EA>versus disk label" problem which got discussed a few months ago. Maybe EA>you can do some experiments in that direction. I do not remember that discussion;do you mean functions 4E/4F of INT 21? Pictview does not seem to use them,unless there are wildcards in filename. It seems to fail on function 3D,file open, but I could not find why.It tries to open the data file read-only and fails.It's all I know hitherto AB> Do you try development version of kernel? For example, from Beta9sr1= ? I tried a kernel from your branch,dated 5 september 2004.It is what I have been usng almost daily. Bruce>The problem I had was not FreeDOS related but something was odd about Bruce>Pictview not finding the file. I tried relative paths, absolute paths Bruce>and etc. But Pictview works for me under DR-DOS with every (legal) filename and path combination I tried,and always fails under FreeDOS.
