Is there any mailling list for kernal hacking? I've just made minor changes
by optimising everything for 286+'s with the idea that you choose an
appropriate kernal on startup, If I get a copy of WC++ sometime I'll try
and optimise command.com and the rest for 386 use too giving hopefully a
much faster and smaller kernal. (eg SHR ax,1 x4 -> shr ax,4, saves space, &
time, PUSHD/POPD, ENTER/LEAVE all save precious space.)
