So there is no reason to try to avoid saying "MSDOG" where that system is in question. If the code or feature being documented works also with FreeDOS, we could mention that too. (I don't know whether FreeDOS is a 100% free OS.) It would not make sense to delete the reference to MSDOG and mention only FreeDOS, because that would not give users the information we want to give them. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
