[REBOL] Re: What no DOS
From: chalz:earthlink at: 31-Jan-2002 13:46
Heh. I don't think a DOS version of View would be necessary at all. I mean, while I
love Windows (that's right, you heard me: I LOVE Windows!!), sometimes I just feel at
home in a console. Course, I've been using various personal computers for about 18 years
now (and I'm only 24..), since the Commodore Vic20. I still don't like Linux much, but
I DO like QNX RTP 6 - but it's a real-time OS with, uh, no real memory cache, so it doesn't
really run on a 486 (among other reasons).
However, what I *have* done is to install CygWin, which is quite yummy I think. Too
bad there's no /core for it, though ;)

I know that DOS is easier to use than Linux, but well, it is 16bit. And ... I
can hardly imagine RT would put their effort into DOS View version :-)
