I can start mirroring from that version. > https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/util/system/fdnpkg/ FDNPKG is the original project and is not in development anymore as it is 32 bit and i made FDNPKG16 a 16 bit port of it's latest code. i got the FreeDOS package with source (of the program not the libraries they are found on the repository) available on http://4ch.mooo.com/freedos/repos/1.4/net/fdnpkg16.zip Jim i have a question... should i merge the 2 projects? i made FDNPKG16 distinct as it is my version of it. To let people know it is a different version of it. the latest version of FDNPKG is found on source forge https://sourceforge.net/projects/fdnpkg/files/latest/download this is where i started on FDNPKG16 also there is a 0.99.8253b version out rn i did some cleaning to code and comments > > On Thu, Feb 12, 2026 at 1:58 PM Victoria Crenshaw via Freedos-devel > <fre...@li...> wrote: >> [fix] fixed a bug in dumpcfg with install sources flag being inverted. >> [new] httpget.exe unlinks files that fail to download. >> [mnt] fixed alot of copyrights headers and variable names. >> [new] fdinst16.exe has multi-package install and remove features! which means you can install more than 1 package with it at the same time now! >> >> latest version that is stable in packaging is http://4ch.mooo.com/freedos/repos/1.4/net/fdnpkg16.zip >> install with fdinst or upgrade with fdnpkg16 >> >> The software is quite nice now.
