You use FreeDOS more than I do. Yet I'm an old-timer who used MS-DOS way
back when.

Oh much better, that is a completely different expression.
I do not use freedos in part for this reason.
I know, after years of experience that I can trust the ms dos setup I
have, and since my machines are custom built, or in the case of my
laptop, custome configured, a trusted floor is criti

I use Lynx, still updated regularly, to order at amazon.com, to reach yahoo
news, to access on line libraries.
Actually to read loads of news sources.
Still my computer is a tool, not a toy. I do successful google searches
for practically anything.

I find it convenient to use a text-based browser for my local (inhouse)
websites, which display data from my homebrew weather station, home heating
system, and various sensors. It's very easy and fast to automatically
generate small text oriented html files in my microcontrollers and write
them to
Well, yeah, granted - the website you're going to would have to be pretty
compliant in the standards of a 100 years ago but it might at least give

I used it for quite a few years, but
now Lynx is (almost) no good, because
-No Javascript
-Obsolete secure protocols
-Incorrect renderizing of frames, tables
-Few sites still provide pages suitable for
text-mode browsers
Apologies in advance if this is old news... but has anybody tried lynx on
FreeDOS? I don't have an internet connection set up so I can't say I've given
it a shot.

I am afraid I do not follow you.
I use DOS exclusively, and spend several hours a day on line using DOS
exclusively. Sometimes from my DOS desktop, sometimes via sshdos, but I
am using nothing but DOS.

Hi Tom,
I have no idea about pure freedos, but I can use the links browser for DOS
in its full graphics mode to go on line in pure ms dos.
It is not my preference, there are things about the browser which do not

Well, I am on line with DOS wright now so smiles.
Seriously, I resonate with the issue finding Ethernet drivers for laptops,
your success is quite admirable.
In the case of my desktops, I have chosen well known brands which tend to
provide a variety of driver options including DOS.
