Hi,

Could probably say "F08" here (or maybe "F03" since more of that is
allegedly supported, and 2003 is the latest "major" revision to the
standard).

Your ZIP Picker still only offers 4.12.    :-(

v2gnu/txi412b.zip         Info file viewer                    1.0 mb

(quoting ZIP Picker):

"Note: Linux supports long file names, but dosemu does not. Unzip
djgpp from within dosemu, not from a regular linux window."

It supports LFNs now (but I guess not "back in the day" ??).

"Note: You need to build Allegro before you can use it. Use 'make' "

It's prebuilt these days, e.g. "all422a.zip" (.a means library,
natch).

BTW, the Emacs selection is slightly bugged:

"Integrated Development Environments and Tools
Which IDE(s) would you like?
 Emacs, but without all the extra functionality that I'll probably
never use (saves 4.1Mb)."

If I select that (knowing it wouldn't work, heh), I get this:


v2gnu/em2005s1.zip        Emacs sources 1/2                   3.9 mb
v2gnu/em2005s2.zip        Emacs sources 2/2                   804 kb
v2gnu/em2303s.zip         Emacs binaries                     47.5 mb

Clearly that's not what you want. (I did experiment with a "minimal"
GNU Emacs binary package when 23.1 came out, but nobody seemed
interested, and I never finished. It was approx. 12 MB unpacked or 5.5
MB .ZIP'd. So if you really really wanted ....)
