@leah leah why

@leah :blobfox0_0:

@leah :blobCat_holding_heart:​

@leah I love it! :dragnMelt:​

@leah Gotta get some more floppy drives!

@leah Does it do various logos for:

DOSBox, DOSBox-X, Dr-DOS, FreeDOS, PC-DOS, ROM-DOS, Netware etc.

Would be great. :) Didn't realize one needed this for DOS but here we go :)

@leah Neat!

@leah Wow, I had totally forgotten about that "return value is the function name" thing.

@leah Pascal 🤩 💯

@leah Z:\?
Wow, that’s a lot of floppy drives. Your exe must be ridiculously huge. 🤣

@leah This is so damn great! Immediately makes me want to program Pascal again (last time was at least 30 years ago) 😂

Recognizing versions of DR-DOS/OpenDOS/WhateverItWasCalledDOS would be fun (it had several names when owner was changing).

Or putting hands on PTS DOS 2000.

@leah

@leah indispensable.

@leah oh god package managers don't exist for DOS, do they

@leah Well, it’s when I see stuff completely unexpected like that, that I am thinking "Geeks I like you so much <3" :-)

@leah This is pure gold, I love it.

@leah

@leah beautiful ascii art, too.

@leah cc @freedosproject !

@leah Oh thank goodness, a real one, I can stop writing fake ones in ANSI art programs. ;)

@leah that's the kind of shitpost I can get behind!

@leah@blahaj.social :D

@leah mem free would be helpful I mean, IIRC it was always a flex to show how much free base memory you had

@leah hey that looks good

@leah 47 MB ext memory

@leah I’ll probably never use this. But I’m happy it exists!

@leah FPU is a flex

@leah omg this is so cool, i might just have to get back into playing with dos lol

@leah i love the internet.

@leah This brings back a lot of memories of writing Pascal on DOS! Does it build with FreePascal? They dropped support for DOS but binaries are still there.

@leah Cool. I actually use DOS in VMs (mostly games) and absolutely do not need this, so I'm putting it in all of them ASAP.

@leah wow, that would be one spanky dos machine. I miss those days, I serviced a lot of ms dos machines. I remember the "user interface" available in ms dos 5 (i think). In my opinion it was better than windows 3.11

@leah TY!

@leah what about adding DOS to neofetch and compiling it as an αcτµαlly pδrταblε εxεcµταblε (https://justine.lol/ape.html)

@leah Kind of makes me want to write a batch file ... then again, think I'll stick to Linux CL ... "it's the only way to fly".

@leah
Aww yiss

@leah
On my XT clone (Homebrew8088 board set with the V40 CPU, GlaBIOS), it did correctly identify PC DOS 2000 (as 7.0) and a FreeDOS install, but quoted weird memory amounts, like -24mb of base memory, and 36Mb of extended. The actual correct answer is 640k base RAM plus 96k usable upper memory

I know I've seen other software, possibly MSD, make the same 36Mb extended memory complaint, but the mainboard is decidedly "not quite how IBM did it." :blobcatblep2:

@leah Runs on my #Book8088, although some of the math seems... suspect 🧐
