MONTHLY REMINDER FOR THE FREEDOS MAILING LIST

Hi! If you are a new reader of freedos-devel (or the other FreeDOS
lists) then, welcome! If you have already been a list member for some
time, then you can skip this as you probably are familiar with its
content anyway.

We have only a few rules for posting to the FreeDOS Mailing list:

1. Please don't swear. We don't want this mailing list to become what
   USENET usually is.

2. Don't post off-topic. Remember, we set up this mailing list to
   discuss FreeDOS issues.

3. No flame wars. If you feel really strongly against what someone has
   said, send a private email.

It would also be nice to send only plain text email messages, rather
than messages formatted in html or MIME encapsulation. This makes it
easier for everyone to read your posts. Above all, html files are real
killers for those who read with speech.

Also provide a bit of context for your reply. Don't be afraid to cite
the text or conversation you are replying to. At the same time, you
should be careful not to cite the whole conversation - just the
relavent bits.

The FreeDOS Project aims to create a free implementation of
MS-DOS. DOS is a popular system, and there is plenty of hardware out
there that supports DOS. The official home of the FreeDOS Project is:

http://www.freedos.org/

Visit the FreeDOS Documentation Project (FD-DOC) at
fd-doc.sourceforge.net to learn how to use FreeDOS.

Would you like to contribute to the FreeDOS Project? Jim Hall has
started a Contribution HOWTO, as a place to start. Look for it at the
FD-DOC web site.

Report problems to bugzilla at http://www.freedos.org/freedos/bugs/

Many programs have already been written for the FreeDOS Project. You
can see what's new by looking at the Maintainers List, which is at
http://www.freedos.org/freedos/software/


Thanks for taking an interest in FreeDOS!

Re: [Freedos-user] I've created a glossy version of Blinky

Ok guys,

visit http://geocities.com/scan_brain/ for a zip archive of glossy
blinky in svg, png and two jpeg versions.

I am sure geocities enforces a MB transfer limit so I will try to find
a new home for it shortly.

Enjoy

It seems that the SVG is buggy
When opened, it displays only Linked image not found.
I looked into the source code,  and I saw that there is no SVG code there, 
just standard xml frames, with a link to 
/Users/rikardlang/Pictures/Blinky/blinkyglossy.png, which is probably the 
directory tree of your hard drive... :-)
That's definetely not the way a SVG should be made. You can't convert a 
raster image to vector, you have to draw it as vectors from the begin

Best regards,

Hi all,

I just made a SVG version of the glossy Binky, based on Rikard's JPG file.

Here it is:

[Freedos-user] formatting floppies on fdos

2007-09-01 Thread LUIZ AFONSO BELLO DE CAMPOS


 Dear Sir


 A piece of your FreeDOS system is attached to my motherboard's
CD-ROM  and I tried other day to format a new floppy by using format A: /S  and
I got the message error code : 513 I Know that I need to type such command
(FORMAT A: /S)  but it failed. And now?
