[Freedos-user] mem command

2005-07-05 Thread GNU_man
Hi, I would like to modify the MEM command to run on the 8088. Can anyone give some pointers or suggestions on going about it? Also, i looked at the sources, looks like it was assembled with TASM which i don't have, neither do i have MASM. I only have the Arrow Asm, and NASM. If you know any

Actually, i discovered (thanks to Eric Auer) that TED3 works perfectly on the 8088. Being a bit speed-impaired, this is a more ideal editor FD Edit .7x for an XT. What is it about FD-KEYB that makes it 286 compatible, but not 8088? Hi, It seems you solved your problem, but for the records,

Hello, does anyone know of a freeware DOS extender for 286?Also perhaps a 16-DPMI since not all extenders have built in DMPI services. Opensource would be best so i can look at the source code. The only one i've seen is DOS16M which is not free. I don't have Turbo C 3+ either so i can't

Eric, could you explain to me the reason Edit 0.7 works on my 8088 and the version included w/ distro doesn't? I am trying to get TED to work also, since i have the source for it i can modify it run also? TED is perfect, it's the one i use on my 286 because it's small and very fast, all others

Thanks for the info. I forgot about the freecom XMS swap thing, i'll look into that first. The reason i mentioned the keyboard is that when i first tried to fire up the computer (i just bought it yesterday) i got a keyboard error:100 Luckily i have a vast collection of old PC parts, including a

Ok this is two questions in one here, I just did a real minimalistic FreeDOS install via 5 1/4 floppy on my new computer. No DOS text editors work on this machine, they all crash - including TED tiny editor. I suspect it could be something do with the keyboard. Please don't tell me i'm stuck

Hello everyone, I have a question regarding compilation of C programs under FreeDOS, I doubt this is exclusive to FreeDOS, but anyway, I want to know if there is any solution. The compile time of GCC using Rhide is intolerable, about 20 seconds - even for a very small program. (using
