[Freedos-devel] CLS reimplementation (Re: VERIFY reimplementation)

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

And now it is the turn of CLS (sorry Jim ;-)
It reproduces the same CLS.C behaviour, including the redirection
detection, but instead of a 9,080 bytes CLS.EXE it creates a 380 bytes
CLS.COM.

What I did not like about the original C implementation was the use of the
non-portable clrscr() which is not available in OpenWatcom. So I guess that
this ASM implementation would be also more portable.

It is available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikkhokkho/files/CLS/

[Freedos-devel] VERIFY reimplementation

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

I am not sure if it could be useful for anyone, but I have just
reimplemented VERIFY.COM by Peter Mikalajunas -1995- (
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/verify/) in
pure assembler. It is not a big deal, but was a personal challenge. With
this main .COM executable gets reduced from 5,444 bytes to just 653 bytes.

Also I noticed that "original" VERIFY was not compatible with the internal
command, allowing only /ON or /OFF. My implementation works with ON and
OFF, but also with 1 or 0.

Source code and binaries are available at:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikkhokkho/files/VERIFY/

Interview questions
My name is Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro (Guti), a Spanish fan of DOS in all of its
flavors, including FreeDOS. So I am glad taking part in this 28th Anniversary
book. Thank you Jim for letting me jump in.

I am mostly know for my site https://javiergutierrezchamorro.com, started back
in 2004 and still active. The beginnings were mostly computing and software
development related, with a special mention to retro-computing. Nowadays I am
mostly focused in watch and other reviews, but vintage computing and software
is still there.

I was the man behind Scratch Upload, a project aimed to keep DOS programs in
their latest available versions in a moment where most abandonware sites
where basically focused in games. Thanks to the Internet Archive project,
the vast majority of the contents where still available:
https://archive.org/details/scratchupload

Back in the old good DOS days, and also later on when OS/2 and Windows gained
popularity, I still developed shareware and freeware programs as De Trans
Software (D.T.S.), Rainbow Software Limited (RSL) and Swap Software
Incorporated (SSI).


Non-technical:

>What is your earliest/first memory of using DOS? This is basically a
>"how did you start using DOS" question.
Even if I played a bit with an Amstrad 1512 at my father's office (running
MS-DOS 3.20), it was not until the Christmas at 1990 that I was gifted an
Amstrad PC-2086 that came with MS-DOS 3.30. It was an affordable machine
but at the same time with lots of special particularities, specially its
Paradise VGA graphics.

Then I moved to DR-DOS 3.40, and PC/DOS 5.00. After that, I got "specialized"
in niche DOSses: PC/DOS 2000, PTS-DOS 6,7 and my beloved OpenDOS featuring
the best of DR-DOS in an opened source fashion.


>How did you first get interested in FreeDOS? How did you hear about
>it? What was the first thing you did/tried on FreeDOS?
At that time I was very active in different communities, and FreeDOS
sounded aloud. I tried it, and at first glance was impressed that it
simply worked! Open source was not so popular at the time, with the
exception of Linux, so having a DOS compatible environment which was
free to use was great. I remember playing with the MICRO-C Compiler,
the tool recommended at that time for creating freeDOS software. It
was years behind the Borland's one I used, but was a good start.


>How do you run FreeDOS today? If it's a virtual machine, tell us about it
>and how you set up the VM. If it's real hardware, tell us about the setup.
I still have an old Pentium II with 32 MB. of memory running DOS, I use to
change from one distribution to another from time to time. I do not use it
regularly, but guess

[Freedos-devel] Pacific C Shareware version at ibiblio

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

Not sure if anyone will be concerned but just found that ibiblio (
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/c/pacific/)
is mirroring the shareware version of Pacific C (circa 1998), while during
2000 they release the same version as freeware with no shareware nags. They
can be got from

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

The tool uses DJGPP stub, so I highly doubt it will run under a 16 bit real
mode CPU.

Re: [Freedos-devel] Disable DOS/4G Dependency on Open Watcom

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

Yes, you can do that.
Just compile as a 16 bit program and get rid of XMS or EMS if you need them.

JEMM386 is basically for 16 bit programs.

Re: [Freedos-devel] Unix-like utilities for FreeDOS

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

With the recent announcement of FAST being empowered by FreeDOS, and the
interest on porting some UNIX utilities to DOS, I decided to combine both.
Since current UPTIME v7.02 by Mark Aitchison is written in Turbo Pascal, I
tried to do an approach in fast. It is still WIP, and not yet as complete
as the other, but it is a mere COM file of 1.077 bytes, while the current
version is 49.746.

What I like of my approach, is storing initial startup time on the CMOS,
using the unused alarm records, which is by far more efficient than storing
a file.

Hope you like the idea. Next steps will be parsing the command-line to
allow output in different formats, and try to mimic format such as:
08:11:22 up 146 days, 34 min, 3 users, load average: 0.28, 0.45, 0.38

Sources and binaries are available at:
http://javiergutierrezchamorro.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/uptime.zip

Once more complete, I will upload to my Sourceforge page:

Re: [Freedos-devel] FreeDOS Live CD Disribution - FreeDOS B

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

I have just updated ZEROFILL to version 1.04. There are no source changes,
but it is now compiled with OpenWatcom 2.0 Beta instead of 1.9, giving it a
small size decrease, and marginally better performance:

Re: [Freedos-devel] An idea ??? - BGI

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

BGI never existed on Turbo Basic, at least officially.
Not sure about Turbo Prolog nevertheless.

Re: [Freedos-devel] Announce: ZEROFILL

[Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro]

Due to stability issues on my free hosting provider, I have moved
ZEROFILL to Sourceforge.
You can find it at http://nikkhokkho.sourceforge.net/static.php?page=ZEROFILL

Sorry for the inconveniences.

This is only to inform you about ZEROFILL, a small DOS utility to
 clean up free drive space in order to make easy to compact it with virtual
 machine software.
The binaries as well as the source code is available at
 http://guti.is-great.org/static.php?page=ZEROFILL

Regards.
