Hi Kurt, hi FreeDOSers, I admit that I did not yet actually -read- that "Tutorial 15" site, but for reference, you can check out the vm386 I copied to http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/software/ (mirrored it, so to say). I do not think vm386 is the same as the new "Tutorial 15" thing, as vm386 is: Quite sophisticated, but has some fatal bugs. It is written in pure Masm or Tasm assembly, so I cannot edit/assemble it. It uses macros and structures and stuff, so it is not trivial to change it to NASM syntax. It contains EMS 4.0 and VCPI and of course a V86 host. The "Tutorial 15" thing is, as your "Triple DOS" thing, written with a high part of C in the code and only a bit of assembly, as far as I understand your mails. This makes improving and fixing the code for our needs (EMM386 for FreeDOS) much easier :-). I do not really have any time to read Triple DOS or Tutorial 15 soon, so you have to check out which fits the needs of a FD EMM386 basis best. You can find a collection of interesting documents and snippets of them along with the code of emmsys and pmlib (those are only sketches, only a fragment of the needed code!) on my homepage, as well as lots of answers on EMS / VCPI / V86 questions in your mailbox (after mailing the questions to me)... http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/software/ http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/emm386/ Sorry for not mailing more explicit URLs, I think you will find your way. Check the mailing list archive (if existing) for my old mails on the topic, where I have probably written a lot about what EMS / VCPI functions I would consider most important candidates for early implementation and stuff. PS: What is the Triple DOS URL ??? And of course it is allowed to call me Eric, for this is my name ;-). Eric
