Speaking generally: Most of the programs that make up the "core" components of FreeDOS are written in C, Assembly, or both. These are the kernel and utilities that replicate MS-DOS behavior - also called the "Base". http://www.freedos.org/software/?cat=base The programs that make up the rest of FreeDOS are written in a variety of programming languages. C and Assembly are popular, but you will also find many programs written in C++ and Pascal. It depends on what the programmer wanted to use. If you want to write programs for FreeDOS, you can use whatever programming language you like. We have a list of compilers, libraries, and other development tools listed on our website. Feel free to use any of them, or whatever DOS programming toolkit or compiler that you prefer. http://www.freedos.org/software/?cat=devel -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
