I just released v0.0.2 of #httpDOS, a #TLS enabled #webserver for #MSDOS (source and binaries)

https://github.com/SuperIlu/httpDOS

I updated #mbedTLS from 2.28.3 to 2.28.8. This release is untested as I'm on vacation and a lazy bum 😂

Wondering if anyone's interested in #FLOSS for older systems like #DOS and #FreeDOS? I really liked the #XFDOS distribution based on #FLTK and #nano-x with FreeDOS. I know the lead developer of XFDOS is no longer active, but it would be nice to see some development continue on this project. Is anyone else besides me interested in this sort of thing?

I put Deluxe Paint II on my FreeDOS retro EeePC. Did some pixelart next to the fireplace.
It shows what we got in the garden.

Nice article => https://www.datagubbe.se/dpaint/

BTW: this setup uses so little computing power (relative to the EeePC power) that it still works hours on battery!

No nareszcie, nie mogłem się doczekać, jak wprowadzenia 640kB RAM, które miało wystarczyć już chyba dla wszystkich?😉

Tak #Microsoft #DOS 4.0 udostępniony jako open-source. Śmiechy śmiechami, ale sporo systemów będzie dzięki temu "uratowanych"?🤔
Choć #FreeDOS istnieje od lat!

Kiedy Norton Commander pójdzie w open source‼️

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:

Well, #Win98 on the #Geode board sucked.
Running #FreeDOS is no solution either (no packet driver for the RTL8110 and no sound).

This is why I now try to compile a bespoke #Linux using #BuildRoot https://buildroot.org/

I already booted into a first test image, now I'm going crazy with the packages to install and recompile 😊

Got this little thing on eBay for a tenner. A project for next weekend...
I'm curious how #FreeDOS runs on this tiny #Geode mainboard.
