UPDATE 6/26/05 I haven't heard back from Joe in several weeks, so I assume it's okay to move Eric's FreeDOS Edit to be the new FreeDOS Edit. Joe's releases have been moved to the 'old' directory. I hope no one gets confused that Eric's version numbers are 0.7x instead of 0.8x that Joe had. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eric@CoLi.Uni-SB.DE wrote: > > More talking about split programs, by the way: EDIT 0.7c should be > better than 0.82 in most aspects at the moment, please let me know > if EDIT 0.7c is worse than 0.82 in any important way...

So I'll assume that Joe doesn't mind that Eric has forked a copy of FreeDOS EDIT. I've mirrored Eric's releases of his "new" forked EDIT at ibiblio (http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/edit/eric/) and modified Eric's LSM before adding it to the Software List (http://freedos.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/freedos-lsm.cgi?q=f&a=base/edit-eric.lsm) ** I try not to edit other people's LSMs before adding them to the database, but since this involves a forked program, I didn't want to leave the LSM unchanged as it would confuse people. I haven't removed Joe's FreeDOS EDIT from the Software List, but I am happy to do so if people tell me that Eric's FreeDOS EDIT is preferable. I feel strongly that we should avoid duplication on the Software List, so I'd like to hear back from the group soon as to which EDIT should remain on the list. If there aren't any follow-ups to this thread, I'll assume that people don't care, and I'll promote the EDIT that's actually got an active maintainer to be the new FreeDOS EDIT. -jh
