I used to write a lot of FORTRAN when I was an undergrad, and I wrote tools to help me, like untab77 (shared a few weeks ago) and this u…
I recently sat down with the FreeDOS beta 1 distribution from 1998, to show where things started.
This includes a bootable FreeDOS kernel. While some apps don't work on this early kernel, many other programs work fine, including DOOM and L…
