Well, neither is 100% compatible with each other. Xgrep is extremely small and 16-bit, but DJGPP's GNU grep is much more robust (but bigger and 386+ only). We just have to decide whether to have both or only one or neither (or something else?). I do think Xgrep is very useful, far better than nothing. I actually use it a lot. My point was that "maybe" we don't need both (by default). > devel\bwbasic > devel\bcc > > These aren't extremely useful (plus fairly buggy) to most people. > > Someone requested basic and c, I will remove them. Well, we already have FreeBASIC and OpenWatcom, which (despite 386+) are more robust than the above. Unless you're going for extreme 16-bit host support, then I don't see a point. And even then, like I said, they are somewhat buggy. Not horrible, but weak, all things considered. Maybe better than nothing, but nobody heavily uses them (if at all) for any major (or minor) FreeDOS projects, AFAIK. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
