Yesterday on this list I mentioned the Cute Mouse Driver; low memory requirements,
and freeware! Works pretty good, too. I can send you the file if you wish (it's only
36K).
BTW, I do some of the same kind of work that you mentioned. What has Caldera told
you about the status of DR-DOS 7.02's distribution? Most of the early language on its
distribution is gone from the site now, and the license statement now reads only that
it's for evaluation; 90 days for business, "a reasonable time" for everybody else. But
the download page still lists all the options! I've been in email correspondence with
someone at Caldera on this, but he never seems to be able to get a straight answer
to give me! Early last week he said "I'll have an answer for you by the end of the
week." Still no answer. I'd like to get something kinda definitive before starting to put
DR-DOS on these machines.
