Open Source Desktop Operating Systems Whiteboard Software

Long before we all became obsessed with licences, people would simply make their source code available and call it freeware. There were code listings in Magazines, archives of code on BBSs, CD-ROMS ... This site tries to rescue this old source code from obscurity and make it available for the current FreeDOS community and for future reference. Available as a git repository only. This is NOT the place to look for ready-to-link libraries. These are the code bases of full DOS applications (mostly small command-line utilities) sorted in various language families. It is the hope that they will give current FreeDOS developers inspiration to develop the ideas in this code further, adapt them to more modern compilers, and see what DOS programmers were up to back in the 1980s. If something of yours was included here by mistake and is in fact proprietary code, let me know and I will take it down.
