Re: [Freedos-user] Any Gui?

Make sure your FreeDOS CD is in the drive. Then run FDIMPLES. Go to “Graphical Desktops”, press TAB, press ENTER on “OPENGEM.” Press TAB twice and ENTER on OK. Personally, however, I find OpenGEM to be quite ugly. My pick would be SEAL, if I’m going for beauty. Brandon Taylor Sent from Mail

Re: [Freedos-user] DOS software

Hi Eric: One of your pictures shows MagnaRAM: How did you like it, in Win3 / Win95 actually? I doubt that I ever installed it. Like I said, a lot of that stuff was acquired because it looked like it might be useful. Most I ever got around to playing with. Ray __

Re: [Freedos-user] Any Gui?

Hello. I have to agree that a GUI mnakes life a bit easy when envolving a tyask with a lot of files. When there wre only DOS i used a file manager called X-Tree Gold, and still have him and i found a version for Windows, Z-Tree Gold. I don't like much windows, i prefer DOS, but there is no way
