Hi Bernd,
I'll respond to Bernd's mail in a minute.
Jeremy, can you reduce the number of files which are downloadable?
I guess the non-XMS build is most universal, despite the high memory
consumption then.
The non-XMS build is really only useful if you cannot provide XMS by
any means. In other words, the non-XMS build is useful for 8086 and
is useful to test if it helps to use a shell which does not use XMS,
not much more.
...
just to clarify,
I build a 186+ full featured XMS-swap version and a
not so featured 8086+ not XMS-swap (aka kernel-swap) version.
My assumption is most people will want the XMS-swap version and 8086s
are a rare item, but those with them do not need the features I
disabled. I could be wrong.
*readme.cmd might be changed to readme.bat so also opens on Win9x?
Better change that to readme.txt!
I call it readme.cmd as it is the readme for command.com, which just
happens to be a batch file extension on OS/2 and WinNT, hence the trick
at the top. I can not use readme.txt, as that name is used for the
kernel readme within the same build base directory that these files are
copied from.
