    My vision of what MSDOS should have become
    in the late 1980s is here:

    http://pdos.org

    Specifically in addition to IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS
    and COMMAND.COM should have been added
    KERNEL32.DLL and MSVCRT.DLL.

    That should have been the only visible change.

    With the benefit of hindsight.

    And a shitload of work.

    This is now a complete package that includes a Windows
    C compiler (gccwin) and can produce and run standard
    Win32 executables. Available from same place.
