Hi, First, thank you for all of your efforts! Honestly, it's almost overwhelming having so many files to deal with!

I'm also not aware of any sources for this, though it does claim to be GPL. AFAIK, it's only binary data (bitmap fonts, compressed). Henrique would probably know more. > command AFAIK, latest is still 0.84-pre2 XMS_Swap, so I just grabbed it from /distributions/1.0/pkgs/ , i.e. COMMANDS.ZIP. The problem is that it has two (identical?) copies of (needed) SUPPL.TGZ in there, but both of them seem to be corrupted. So I grabbed old SUPPLS.ZIP from the same location. Bart would probably know more. > edlin Latest is still 2.15, which is available at http://freedos-edlin.sf.net . Gregory would probably know more. > fdisk Assuming you mean only "FD" Fdisk and not (also) Xfdisk or SPfdisk, then that's easy to find on iBiblio.

Not consciously aware of this, but maintainer is listed as Imre, so (in theory) he's the guy to contact. (obligatory joke elided) > print Jim Tabor would be the guy to ask, or maybe Eric Auer. It's on iBiblio. But I've never (successfully) used this. > The current version of these packages can be found here: > http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.1/repos/base/ So, as best I could determine, for your convenience, I put all these sources here: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.1/repos/base/tmp-src/ commands.zip 2006-Aug-29 02:09:48 3.5M suppls.zip 2002-Jul-30 02:44:44 1.1M edlin-2.15.zip 2010-Dec-20 17:57:27 199.9K fdisk131.zip 2008-Nov-04 22:57:48 188.5K help107src.zip 2005-Mar-25 07:26:50 184.3K more43.zip 2007-Oct-01 19:33:00 49K print-jimtabor-102.zip 2007-Sep-17 12:00:10 15.1K Though I didn't look too too closely, and I didn't try recompiling any of these (probably harder than it sounds). > If anyone would be willing to check them out, add sources, and make sure > these packages are up to date and features latest translations, I'd be > happy to accept fixed packages. I did not make any "packages" proper, sorry. Nor translations, I have no idea, I didn't look. > Otherwise I will try to repackage/fix them myself, hopefully before 2014. I don't even remember the layout of your packages. Honestly, I've been "busy" doing other things, so making more packages has (for now) not been a priority, esp. lacking any feedback. I'm honestly just not comfortable enough with it all, so my help is questionable. But if you have any specific requests, feel free to ask. (In particular, I haven't updated FDNPKG under VirtualBox in months, and that's the only place I have a working packet driver. Usually I just manually install everything, which I admit is not always ideal, esp. for most end users.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
