in the DOS days would be fascinating.

to run MS-DOS
7.1.
IIRC it was never intended to be a standalone product. I'm curious what
the personal reasons are, or what 7.1 gives you that 6.22 (or FreeDOS)
can't.

Thanks Lukas! This didn't change the boot experience but also works. I'll
dig into these options.

BBSes was the huge chat (or "CB") rooms, where
you'd be on talking with dozens/hundreds of people around the world. That
was amazing in the early/mid 80s. GEnie would have thousands of concurrent
users in the late 80s.
On a different note, Sidekick and its TSR ilk are also
TCP/IP-wise. I think I'll add
something like "call C:\LOCAL.BAT" to :End in FDAUTO.BAT and then put my
local startup customizations there to avoid changing the dist FDAUTO.BAT
too much.
Thanks much!

Of course, you're comparing a 20-year-old distro with a 30-year-old
"distro" of DOS :-)

sqlite (regardless of platform) also includes a CLI version which can
process SQL commands from stdin or files, but you're right that its primary
purpose is to as an embedded SQL engine, whereas dBASE and its ilk were
more application platforms.
I missing something?

You may find it helpful to install the SEARCH program, which is available
through FDIMPLES.
Then you can type "search " and its location(s) will be listed.
It's analogous to find(1) on Unix, or perhaps more accurately locate(1) on
Lin
ring different
vendors, etc.
(5) And the big one...where's the money in releasing old source code? It
takes lawyers, tech people, etc. and likely would cost a fair amount of
money just to package it up.
BTW, Microsoft has (or at least at one time had) various programs where
universities had
CLUDE=d:\mateusz\devel\ow19\BINW;%INCLUDE%
All of the SET lines referenced d:\mateusz\devel\ow19. Of course, that
path doesn't exist so the file sets variables that don't work.
Shouldn't they reference c:\devel\ow, or am I misinterpreting something?
Sorry for the newbie Qs :-)
