OK ... 4.57 was even worse ... nevertheless, Mik's 4.58 is not significantly smaller than most older D**** versions, and still heavily bloated compared to Igor's version.

YES. I'm using HPDMI32 resident.

YES. By 8 KiB compared to CWSDPMI, or 22 KiB compared to LOADPEX (not really "available" by now) .

IMHO NO. Not being able to run on HDPMI32 is a severe fault

NO. It was not a bug report, just a side note (see shot for 7-ZIP bug report) - it just doesn't find the Internet / IP while Arachne does (DHCP). Nevertheless, 42 DOSsers could have answered about having WGET working in DOS and how (USB modem and satellite connection ? ), nobody did, seems people are more interested about what I'm doing wrong rather than using WGET in DOS

Seems to fix it

I know ... WDOSX and D3X could be better ... IIRC D3X doesn't have this bug, at least not with your great PAQ ...

BTW, the "lazy-progress-indicator-bug" seems fixed
