Content-Type: text/plain Date: Mon, 07 Sep 1998 03:58:39 PDT Precedence: bulk Well, it is time to send out some comments out to all you DJGPP fans, and others. I believe that a special type of DOS can be developed with programming simple platform with DJGPP, kind of 32bit routines library for 16bit/32bit applications, it should atleast most important functions like: 1.Device drive management system a.Disk handling (Application-> OS-> DOS) b.Ansi/Pixel Graphics c.Audio Actually this ain't anymore just planning, I have come quite far away from those times I written first application/program with almighty DJGPP C/C++ programming language/Compiler. I believe this is possible, so why not to try? It's new, it's cool, it's *hot idea*. I hope you agree with me, and remember, everything would be first of all based on pure DOS, but later on my idea is to plan it to work on my simplified 16bit Shell kind of operating system. ** World needs new ideas, hope, so does DOS ** Replies to: jer64 AT hotmail DOT com, thank you. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
