July 28, 200818 yr A new release of my QBASIC help file is due out this week. Most of the editing is done (except for dual-boot).Topics LOCK, UNLOCK, LOGO.SYS, and MSDOS.SYS have been completed. New topics include ABOUT (typing "help about" gives an about page!, and SELECT (from MS-DOS 4!). The qbasic.exe is the one found at http://www.phatcode.com/ , which includes a WinXP bug fix. Other fixes include using HELP.HLP in the editor, and the open *.* for *.TXT.Future plans:One thing i plan to do is to move many of the undocumented / auxillary files and drivers into an alphabetical listing akin to the QBASIC.HLP function commands. This would free up some of the front page, because users seeking information on given files can get a "one-liner" and link, eg SIZER.EXE -> Part of <MEMMAKER>. A table of references, including COMMANDS.TXT. MSDOSDRV.TXT, and http://www.mdgx.com/ is given as well. Some work is none the less original.
