Thanks cheddargirl.
This is 2 days too late, but the 4th of July special edition of SIMPL-DOS is out (and has been for 2 days 
)!
Download here!

Why was it closed?
Inactivity.
Dude, when are you going to post EOW AppleNews 6 on PodTricks?
EOW AppleNews 5 was posted 2+ months ago!

Just wondering, but what is it programmed in? like, to make the EXE? Because I might want to learn it.
It is programmed in Windows/DOS Batch, and meowmeow55 uses NSIS to make the EXE.
*ahem*
Yawn.

When are you going to make the EXEs for the last 3 versions? (0.4, 0.42, IDSE)

Yeah, I had to convince fire to get the new topic reopened and not start a new one. Not exactly sure why I did, lol...Maybe some sense of nostalgia?
Yawn.

Don't see why you can't post it yourself, but okay.

Just yesterday, I experimented with a modified SIMPL-DOS v0.42 Standard by injecting loading code into the AUTOEXEC.BAT file in a standard MS-DOS boot disk. It goes into an infinite loop instantly on start-up because the SET command failed to recognize the "/p VarName=" switch. Maybe we should create a command framework or do something major to SIMPL to make it run out-of-the-box on old-school MS-DOS, FreeDOS and old/modern Windows OSes and soon WindozeNT Software Operating System. Peace out!

If it's not a user-defined variable, then you have to use set VarName=. And what version did you use? Some versions use Choice instead of Set /P= for user choices. And I have a book on DOS, have you tried installing more memory or using DBLSPACE to compress it?
Also, send me a portion of the startup code you used... I'll analyze it with my book.

Re: SIMPL-DOS thread
Er, set /p doesn't work on MS-DOS.
Yawn.

Re: SIMPL-DOS thread
BTW, you don't have to use:
if %choice%=help goto HELP
if %choice%=HELP goto HELP
You can use if /i %choice%=HELP goto HELP.
It removes caps checking. But I need the DOS version.

Ok.
@Windoze: Yea, MS-DOS doesn't support set /p. The only other way I know of to do the same thing is using the choice command, which would take much more code to use, and I think XP doesn't support it.
