Hi,

I'm new to the forum. Been lurking for a while - along with FreeDOS groups. Keen to avoid FB hence looking for proper discussion forums.

Long time user of DOS and still my fav OS and environment. Still keep a DOS machine running. First PC wa an XT clone in 84 and many since. Now macOS but DOS runs in VM and on an older DOS machine. A little Windows (mainly earlier variants).

I used PC mainly for programming (recreation and work). A lot of old code on discs and hope to resurrect a lot (old PC still reads and writes the up to 35 year old discs!). Languages of choice always ASM and C and I was a Borland fan - turbo C 2 remains by panacea of IDE and editor (though I use VIM and terminal as daily driver more through acceptance than choice as no decent WS and Borland IDE clone for unix).

I have some manuals and some PDF of Borland tools. I only have reference manual for Turbo C 2. Would anyone have a link, pointer or willing to share full manual set for Borland Turbo C 2?

Hope to contribute a little around here and to FreeDOS. Just starting slowly while I find my feet - and gain a little confidence!
