China DOS Union

Don't be too sensitive. Actually, nobody is very extreme now. But people live in society, so it's impossible not to be influenced. Therefore, whatever happens is all normal; it just depends on how you deal with it.

DOS just needs a beautiful SHELL. Then what's the difference between it and WIN, LINUX? The compatibility of DOS should be reduced a bit. Otherwise, the performance will be a bit worse. Because the compatibility and performance are inversely proportional.

Yeah, let's cheer for FreeDos together. Although I've just started, everyone has also boosted my confidence today.

I love DOS, but I don't use DOS in my work. This makes me have an expectation. Although I can't make any substantial contributions to the development of DOS, I will pay attention to its growth. I hope that with the efforts of all you experts and the expectations of our many supporters, I can use the DOS I like to work. Not others...

FreeDos does have a Shell, it seems to be called Seal.

FreeDos has a Shell, doesn't it? It seems to be called Seal.

But there are not many applications on SEAL currently.

Wengier - In the new DOS era, nothing can be downloaded, bad connection.

Materials can be free, but I don't approve of programs being free. Programs that others have worked hard to develop, which may take several months, it's unfair to the developers if you can have it for free with a "Free" in one sentence and get it in 3 minutes.

The following is the speech of MYS on 2002-10-17 23:08:13:
Currently, the more rapidly developing DOS should be FREEDOS. Although its core form is quite different from that of MS-DOS, etc., most of the external commands can be ported to MSDOS, etc.
The advantage of FREEDOS lies in being free and open, and basically all external commands contain source programs. And it is still constantly developing with the support of many DOS enthusiasts abroad.
Should we focus on promoting FREEDOS?

Just let's all agree to use FreeDOS. We can solve problems together. Let's put aside other versions. Focus on developing one well!

I want to recompile FREEDOS, who can teach me?

I think we must promote FREEDOS. We must make FREEDOS compete with LINUX and WINDOWS! DOS is the operating system that I think is the best, but almost 80% of people think it is outdated, and there are also many such people in our DOS forum. The reason is that DOS software is too old and cannot basically support new things. To support them, third-party software must be downloaded; DOS has no graphics and is not simplified (I refer to free FREEDOS). At least during installation, it is not really in graphical form, and there is no necessary installation process. If it can be installed in a wizard-like graphical and Chinese way like most LINUX, then I think DOS can make a lot of progress in simplicity! But unfortunately, there are too few people in China who support DOS, and the number of people developing DOS is far less than those developing LINUX or almost none! For DOS to be promoted in China and even the world, it is not simply to promote by finding old DOS software on the Internet. This requires efforts and development enthusiasm like LINUX users! To simplify DOS, make it graphical, and even make it family-friendly, it is not simply to fill it with old software. It all requires the development of new people!
I'm just making a suggestion. I don't know any programming languages; I hope more people can get involved and make DOS regain its glory!

I'm also learning DOS, and my starting point is Free DOS. But I find that there are quite a few things different from what the moderators talked about regarding MS, and I don't understand. I hope more things about Free DOS can be introduced here later for me to learn.
Thanks!

What do people use DOS for now? It's so troublesome to operate.

He is from Taiwan.

Taiwan is not part of another country? What kind of talk is that?
