Just a side note here. My current walk of life does not allow me to have so much spare time for FreeDOS as I used to have. That's why I haven't posted much lately, but I am still on it. As for DFLAT+ that Jim talks, it is basically Edit's DFLAT plus some additions, and being scrapped out of EDIT; I have finished with that and left it ready for a first release, but as I am having a short 2-week break to Germany, I'm leaving the release to my return on aprox the 18 of August. Appart from the source code being taken out, I have also edited some news, so a new version of EDIT is also expected with a small improvement and some bugfixes by then.
