This is slightly off topic, but can someone recommend a TCP and UDP library for FreeDOS. I need it to Compile or Link to the 32-bit OpenWatcom C++ compiler. It doesn't need any other network components like ftp or dhcp. Thanks, Andreas ___ Freedo

I also think the task should look exactly like DOS. This either means that resources (e.g. serial ports, printer ports, usb, ect) must be given exclusively to one task which owns it until it closes or the kernal must administer the conflicts WITHOUT one task being able to crash another. Writin

I have always had problem being able to establish a permanent handle to lower memory with 32 bit DJGPP. It seems that you need to create a new one every time you access the lower memory since the handle seems to become invalid at the strangest moments. This is quite tedious. Imre Leber wrote: >

I wouldn't have commented except you said that. First, you can turn it off any number of ways, like SET CAUSEWAY=NOVM, or reassemble without the option enabled, or there is programmatic support to do it. Second, CauseWay doesn't use the hard disk until you run out of physical memory, which

I would like to add one issue: With open watcom I can no longer use the WDOSX stub. The villain is wlink. If I use the Watcom 11 (or 10) wlink everything is OK. Before someone comments, I don't like causeway since it uses the hard disk as heap and I don't know how to turn this off. This is re
