Here is the way to find PG: http://www.freedos.org/freedos/software/ http://www.freedos.org/cgi-bin/lsm.cgi?mode=dir&dir=util http://www.freedos.org/cgi-bin/lsm.cgi?mode=lsm&lsm=util/pg.lsm http://johnson.tmfc.net/dos/pg.html http://johnson.tmfc.net/dos/file/pg116.zip (supports Chinese??) Googling for djgpp less returns: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.msdos.djgpp/browse_thread/thread/e0902fd9114e28bb ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/lss418b.zip (binary) ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/lss418s.zip (source) I think lss418b.zip is a pathetic filename, web servers should NOT use 8.3 if you ask me! You can always select some 8.3 file name like less4bin.zip at the moment when you download the file...
