Dear Jim,

having used FreeDOS extensively for years I came accross the nice video
meeting in summer. As I emntioned at that occasion. I have ported quite
a few unix utilities for FreeDOS. I am enclosing as an example the
whereis version (for 32bit and 16 bit gcc).

It can be compiled for 32 bit with djgpp:

gcc    -O4 -fexpensive-optimizations -c whereis.c

gcc  -o whereis whereis.o


It can be compiled for 16 bit with  gcc-ia16 :

gcc -O4 "-mcmodel=medium"  -fexpensive-optimizations -c whereis.c

gcc "-mcmodel=medium" -o whereis.exe whereis.o



Best wishes
