For example, I wish pause at some point, before screen content is replaced by next output... related question: The usage of the console (Ctrl-Alt-2) command stop and cont isn't practical. I'm too unable to use the pause key in QEmu :( 2. how to scroll (view previous) output? freedos.img outputs too much, thus making most its output useless, unless it may be studied. ^Up, ^PgDn in main console (^Alt-1) doesn't work. The screen provided by QEmu isn't a console screen. It's the output of the emulated graphic card. Therefor, it doesn't have a buffer to scroll. Maybe, there is the possibility to reroute the output to the serial interface and write this into a file or tail tool. Never tried this before. 3. how to copy files to images or create non-empty images (from hard-drive directories)? For example, I wish to update kernel.sys or command.com - how? See point 4. 3.1. I was try -fda fat:subdir, but freedos.img doesn't shows (dir a:) content of subdir (it think, there are no diskette). -hdb fat:subdir also not helps - dir d: shows no files. The more so, dir c: also shows no files! Maybe like -hda vvfat:local_directory/. Do a google for it or check the manual from QEmu. You need to specify it explicitly when using the VVFAT. More generic question: 4. how to exchange files inside and outside virtual environment (and/or between real media and QEMU image)? If you use the RAW disk format, you can use EditDisk / DiskExplorer (http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA013937/editdisk/index_e.html;). Use the vmware plain disk format. If you use the vmware disk format, you can mount the disk images with the Virtual Disk Driver (http://chitchat.at.infoseek.co.jp/vmware/vdk.html;). The QCOW disk format is currently broken in QEmu for Win32. You can use different utilities to edit floppy images or ISO images und use them with QEmu. You can use the VVFAT option from QEmu to mount a local directory. It's limited to ~500MB max. and maybe buggy. I personaly use the MS-Client for DOS and mount a share from my Windows XP host over the network. But this is a little complicated to setup and a bit slow. You can see my config files under http://geodb.org/secB.htm#secB;. My two cents.

This also not relates directly for BC, but for any compiler, which
diagnoses (or even prevents) assigning const pointers to non-const pointers.
I mean, there should be split (in description) between changes, which make
compatibility with specific compiler (like adding #include stdarg.h for BC
or removing explicit #pragma option for TC), and changes, which clean
sources and make happier most/all compilers (like providing explicit
prototypes and/or make function definition equal to its prototype).

I'm sorry, but I made it quite clear in the announcemet that the full ISOs were NOT ready yet. I would have annouced it if they were. That is your problem for taking the risk and knowing that they ISOs already on ibiblio could not quite be ready. Hi everyone. I didn't realize the full ISOs weren't ready for distribution yet. The note in the announcement read Shortly, the larger and more featureful ISOs will also be uploaded. And since the ISOs were uploaded by the time I read the announcement, I assumed that shortly had already happened. My bad.

[Freedos-devel] OT freedos irc / emails to markus/tassilo
Hi We had a major failor in our hardware. 3 Harddisks died at the same time (well there it goes ur raid5). anyway never saw something like that. the irc network was affected because on one of the nodes our i7c.org hub was running. i configured a new hub (balamb) and we r linked again. the only server thats NOT linked is irc2 since its admin is on vacation (i already emaied him). anyway irc.i7c.org is a roundrobin in our dns so that u always get a running one. one last problem was that nobody was able to log into balamb since i had a little config error, but thats fixed and everything runs smoth except that irc2 isnt linked. eric since you -for what ever reason- refuses to use domain names the savest server would be 62.75.152.234 for you. another system that was affected was the emails. i think all mails got send sucessfully to the backup mx but in case i wont answer to some of ur emails pls send it again. thanks a lot and sorry for the problems. tassilo - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Does the ISO I just re-uploaded work now? (I know, it's kinda cheating). Hey jackass, did it occur to you that your actions will cause problems with people trying to download the ISO's? Or who have already downloaded it? If you have to do a bug fix, do a .0.1 release or something. But releasing 1.0 and then replacing it is just plain irresponsible. You should *NEVER* do a release and then replace it with a silent upgrade. If you have to fix something, do a point release. You ought to have your uploading priveleges revoked for that stunt. Here I am, I've spent about 5 hours slowly downloading the full version, getting just a few K per second, and right before it gets done, you go and replace it. Jackass.
