Hi Mateusz,
In FreeDOS 1.0, most packages were in the same directory
structure of the same main FreeDOS directory. I do like
that approach. Note that it was not extreme in that: For
example Arachne, FBC, Emacs, GS, Lynx OpenXP, Pacific C,
Pegasus Mail and Setedit all had their own directories,
be
part of the beauty of FreeDOS is that it's so versatile, so good,
thatyou can do stuff your own way with it - this, i think, is
not going to change, and i, for one, am all for it.

Hi!
Long time no see. I’d like to mention my POV anyways.
Why use a Unix-like structure?
In DOS, everything is where you want to put it.
Configuration files traditionally reside in the same directory where the actual
program that uses it is located. If not, it has its own structure (like
comple

Yes indeed. That's why I believe the way to go will be using so,e env
variables to store installation paths to software (dosdir, gamesdir,
appsdir, develdir for starters, other m

Hello,
Marcos, Dennis - thanks for your valuable input. I see with only two
answers that we already have two very different point of view (Marcos
using a more 'classic' DOS-ish directory structure, while Dennis prefer
