Just FWIW: * It was updated in the last 5 months: https://github.com/jacobpalm/costa * Its website looks active and current: https://costa.jacobpalm.dk/ * It isn't written in VBDOS. It's in Turbo Pascal: « COSTA.PAS is written using Borland Turbo Pascal, but should be compatible with Microsoft QuickPascal as well » I would suggest to him that the FreePascal Compiler would be a better option. https://www.freepascal.org/ I am not arguing for it, but it does seem to be in active development and significantly modernised from 2004. Apparently 1.80 was released last month. -- Liam Proven ~ Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: [email protected] ~ gMail/gTalk/FB: [email protected] Twitter/LinkedIn: lproven ~ Skype: liamproven IoM: (+44) 7624 227612: UK: (+44) 7939-087884 Czech [+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal]: (+420) 702-829-053 _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
