| 4 | Subject: RE: Source code to MS-DOS 1.0 | ||
| 5 | |||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | I have found and attached the source code for MS-DOS 1.25 as shipped by Seattle Computer Products. Version 1.25 was the first general release to OEM customers other than IBM so was used by all the first clone manufacturers. | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | IBM's DOS 1.1 corresponds to MS-DOS 1.24. There is one minor difference between 1.24 and 1.25, as noted in the revision history at the top of MSDOS.ASM. | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | Of the file attached, only STDDOS.ASM/MSDOS.ASM (DOS main code) and COMMAND.ASM (command processor) would have been used by an OEM other than Seattle Computer. The other files: | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | IO.ASM - I/O system unique to SCP (equivalent to ibmbio.sys). | ||
| 14 | ASM.ASM & HEX2BIN.ASM - Old 8086 assembler developed by SCP (used to assemble older version of DOS). | ||
| 15 | TRANS.ASM - Z80 to 8086 assembly source code translator developed by SCP. | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | I also have a 6” stack of printouts of assembly listings for some of these and probably other related programs. | ||
