I have a very old DOS .COM keyboard driver here, KEYBUK.COM for the UK
keyboard which only takes up 261 bytes.

Thanks for that one, switching to JEMMEX just solved a problem where
Bochs would barf if EMM386.EXE was loaded.

Hi Japteth
Just a note to let you know that repeated use of VIM 7.3.46 (DOS32
binary) will crash JEMMEX 5.74b if it is used. M$'s HIMEM and EMM386
works perfectly with it.
Any ideas or workarounds?

My vote's on the ISO 8601 standard (like above) - it makes it easy to
sort directories in date order.
I recommend FreeDOS adopts the ISO 8601 standard, and only convert dates
for humans based on their country/locale.

I guess I've forgotten DOS can be quite anal about LFNs ;)

IIRC, someone wrote a BIOS layer some time ago for the S100 so it could

AHCI is a standardised programming method that can be used on different
chipsets that adhere to the AHCI standard.
SATA is the bus where data is transferred to/from disks.
