Notes

  1. Software package manager: fdimples;
  2. Graphical W.W.W. browser: dillo - also for viewing images -, arachne seems to have problems to connect to the Internet;
  3. mTCP contains IRCjr to chat on IRC networks - read the user documentation for more information;
  4. For text: mined, pico is said to be libre but does not seem to be, also edit is pre-installed and is fine;
  5. For viewing text: pg seems superior to the pre-installed less, which feels strange to use;
  6. The graphical shells for FreeDOS are a bit too simple;
  7. Didn't try it but there is MPlayer for viewing videos;
  8. Didn't try it but there is OHRRPGCE for creating RPGs;
  9. Haven't found a good image manipulation program;
  10. Haven't tried FreeDOS on real hardware.
