Links to fine DOS software
Over the years we have
collected a lot of links to fine DOS software we use regularly and so would
like to share with you. This page is intended for advanced users and software
developers. So if you are looking for end-user applications like word processors,
image manipulation software, sound players, etc., we recommend visiting 
Interesting DOS programs by Dev Anand
Teelucksingh and
Short.Stop's Edition of Free Software for DOS by Steve
Adelewitz (R.I.P.) based on the original pages by Richard L. Green.
Many more interesting development
tools, e.g., assemblers, compilers, debuggers, interpreters or linkers for various
programming languages can be found at
Dmitry Smaghin's site.
Note: List items marked
with a floppy icon (

are direct link to downloadable files.
