Replying to a message of GEORGE LAGERGREN to FLORIAN XAVER:

 FX>> Hi, if you think of Dr-DOS: Yes. There is a new version which is
 FX>> called   Enhanced Dr-DOS. You will find it at
 FX>> http://www.drdosprojects.de. Main   feature: FAT32+ (to support big
 FX>> files). 

 GL>      Questions:  Does this new "Enhanced DR-DOS" support old DOS
 GL>      application programs which happen to write directly to hardware      
 GL> to speed up the program?

AFAIK it does.  DR-DOS versions 5, 6 and 7 do.

 GL>      Is this new "Enhanced DR-DOS" written in the English language?

Yes.  DR-DOS is short for "Digital Research DOS," an operating system
written and marketed by Digital Research Inc., the company that developed
and owned CP/M.  After the company's founder, Gary Kildall, died Novell
bought the company in a hostile takeover and renamed DR-DOS Novell-DOS.
Novell-DOS version 7 is actually DR-DOS version 7.
