This is the merged doscmd/rundos project. Please read the man
page for help on configuring doscmd.
Things known not to work:
* No mouse support (yet)
* No xms/ems support (yet)
* No raw VGA support (yet)
* Printer support (yet)
* COM ports (being worked on)
* redirected file system only supported for DOS 4.0 and above
(3.3 will be supported in a future version)
* Graphics in an X window (not planned to work)
Even with this, I think it is actually a much better product. There have
been problems reported with the ibmpc font and the distributed X server.
If you have that problem, try setting
X11_FONT=fixed
in your .doscmdrc. Be aware that graphics characters will not print correctly
if you do this.
You will need to patch your kernel. Diffs are provided against the CD-ROM.
Please let me know if there are a problem with them (I am running a pre 1.1
kernel now).
It is possible there are some problems in the floppy code due to the fact
that I am not set up to test under 1.0 at this point. I will be in a few
days I hope.
Please send all bug reports to prb@BSDI.COM.
