Basically, yes, but you can use it for a test, installing, say, XGREP (running
"FDUPDATE /NEW") - it won't do any harm to your system. The on

scripted(unattended) overwriting. Still,
if I overwrite with a larger file, does this obliterate the overwritten
file, eliminating the possibility of retrieval?

Regardless of the age of the product and the ownership, if one has the

media there shouldn't be a problem.
At least thats what I think, :)

Hi people!
I'm proud to announce that I released HTGET v1.06 today! HTGET is a program
which is able to retrieve files from HTTP servers. It has been written many
years ago by Ken Yap, who decided to drop the development of this program.
HTGET v1.06 is written in GNU C and compiled with DJGPP.

Hi all,
I've organized a FreeDOS distribution diskset that consists of 3
floppies. Unlike Rugxulo's floppy distro, it is especially made for
installing FreeDOS to a hard drive. It is intended to use in those
cases, when you can't use the CD-ROM installer for some reason (ex.
the machine doesn't ha
* Calmira for GUI or someone could write a Program Manager for GUI like
Windows 3.x. Personally, I like the style of Windows 3.x over the
Windows 95 style of GUI.
I can't remember if Win 3.1 had context menus or not and I kind of like
a start menu/taskbar but thats not 3.11. If I do this right C
I have a VM with MS DOS 6.22, Windows 3.11, and Win32s available in a
QEMU VM. If you need comparative testing, let me know.
Thanks I am sure I will need lots of testing.
I also need to buy it cause I barely remember how it looked and worked. :)

Do you tried the beta 0.55 version I sent you few days ago (the one using HTGET
as a downloader)? Still crashing?

Hi!
This is an appeal for any volunteers which would like to contribute a bit to
the FreeDOS project. We won't push v1.1 without any help! Sitting and waiting
until 1.1 comes out won't make things happen. There's simply too much to do.
How could *YOU* help?
