%hSvarDOS: The project's TODO list

* Replace the default (FreeDOS) edit with a smaller alternative (?)
  -> must be TINY
  -> no need for advanced text editing features, just enough to comfortably
     edit small (<64K) configuration files
  -> must be 8086-compatible and have modest memory requirements
  -> must be NLS-aware (multi-language)

* validate that CORE is 100%% 8086-compatible

* build process: the install floppy should be built as much as possible using
  existing packages (ie. remove the custom "files" directory from svn)

* Networking setup at install time -> should crynwr be part of the install
  set? Or only selected drivers? Or maybe this could be provided as a
  "supplemental" floppy disk?

* bootable USB install image

* add a "link" tool so users can easily create "links" to their favorite
  programs (esp. things like zip/unzip, etc)

* pkg.exe: add an 'unzip' option so pkg.exe can be used as a poor man's unzip

* install.com - MBR changes could be done by the installer itself instead of
  system()-calling fdisk

* help - write more useful content!

* further NLS support, improvements of existing translations and adding new
  languages -> would be nice to have some kind of web interface for submitting
  and reviewing translations

* pkgnet.exe: implement the 'checkup' action for easy update checking
