Agreed. It's better to add more abilities to FreeDOS than to let it fall
under the Linux umbrella. FreeDOS is a lightweight, nimble OS and it
would behoove us to not lose its identity under that of another.

What would be the point of freedos ? Might as well be another Linux distro

Hi All,
First of all, thank you all very very much for your support :)
Indeed, i have to follow the whole thread as Eric said
Also, all tips are very valuable and Eduardo even provided a real

Well, i prefer to be low profile/humble to not create much

also because i'm mainly used to java/python which is way different

and i have no experience with asm so, i'll have a long learning curve
Thank You Very Much and Kind Regards,
Geraldo Netto
