Still, Rugxulo, I think, has suggested one could ping Bart Oldemann with the question. Now, after you have pointed out very plausibly that FreeCOM does not hold "hidden" pointers to the master ENV, I must admit I do not see the point originally made as crucial any more. > it can be solved as well or better by a small external utility; just have > the first line in autoexec.bat be ENVLOW.EXE. Is that found in the FreeDOS distro ? Don't bother, I'll g00gle it... This list's Macej brewed his own tiny, simple mover and sent a copy for me to play with (thanks Macej).. It's amusing, but needs to be run several times in a row to get a chance to relocate the ENV properly :=) > and moving program code around is probably easier in ASM then in C Undoubtably > even better: you can do it yourself without learning C ;) Great relief, that! C was not around when I educated myself to programming in the 50s - early 60s,.by the way. I intend to do mine indeed - unless the envlow you mentionned is doing the job. Macej's is good as a proof of concept but does not quite do what I want done, which is leave no hole after it. DOS memory ought not to look like Swiss cheese (gruyere).... Hmm, question may be considered closed for the moment being.
