This is why I usually put the OS name in the prompt, e.g. "prompt [ FreeDOS ] $D$g". You can also use extended VGA textmode (beyond 80x50) via Japheth's SETMxx tools.

Yeah, GIFVIEW requires X11 (although we have DOS viewers, so this is moot).

There's also XPL0's SEE w/ src (and probably various others that Steve will probably point out, heh).

Well, I've started reading in a few places that "FreeDOS comes with DPMI server by default". And to be honest, CWSDPMI is fairly ubiquitous.
