DOS ain't dead

Eric Tauck's old software goes MIT license (Announce)

Hi!

Recently, I remembered the 1990's Wolfware Assembler (WASM).
Version 2.23 can also be found at http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/asm/wasm/.
Its license is kinda "copyrighted freeware, that comes with source code".

So I asked Mr. Tauck to re-release WASM under one of today's common FOSS licenses. -- He kindly decided to put all his software at http://www.shoelesscomputers.com/software/ under MIT license now. (See README.TXT and LICENSE.TXT.)

This includes the aforementioned WASM, TODDY v6.15 (A DOS command line editor), CLONE v2.10 (A floppy disk duplicator), WARP v2.31 (A fast ANSI.SYS replacement) and several other tools for DOS or Windows.

Unfortunately source code for some of these tools cannot be found at http://www.shoelesscomputers.com/software/source/ currently, but I already sent Mr. Tauck a message about that. We'll see, what happens next.

Cheers,
Robert
