In the 1990s I used DJGPP to run a small C-based Unix tool I wrote on a DOS machine. Later years Cygwin was more the way I would do cross-platform GCC stuff. I now have even more appreciation for what they needed to do behind the scenes to get DJGPP working. #gcc #djgpp #history #ComputerHistory #RetroComputing

I ported the plugins from #DosView to #DOjS, so the next release of #DOjS will contain #TIFF, Sun Raster and #Jpeg2000 loading/writing.

I also switched #JPEG libraries and #JPG saving will be possible, too.

I also added a more sophisticated way of detecting keypresses, so creating games with keyboard input will be easier.

#DOStodon can now run natively on #Linux.
This is my #SurfaceGo running #ArchLinux and a self compiled version of #DOjS for Linux.

This is a test toot from it:

DOStodon showing the file/image selector

dec_hl, 10 months ago to random

I face an interesting problem for a file selection dialog I want to create:
How do I detect which drive letters are actually available/used in #MSDOS (using either #DJGPP or a DOS/BIOS INT)?

I guess it is always safe to assume A, B and C are there?

What happens when no secondary disk drive is installed?

I found _dos_setdrive() in DJGPP and INT21 0Eh, but I'm not sure what happens when I _set_drive() with a non existing drive?
