Writing FreeDOS programs in C (introduction)

Показать описание
Jim is starting a new weekly "how-to" series to teach you how to write FreeDOS and Linux programs in C. Videos will be available to everyone on our FreeDOS YouTube channel. But patreons on my Patreon will get access to extras that will help you to learn!

This is part of the "Writing FreeDOS programs in C" series

This is the general outline I expect to follow in the series. I'll be using FreeDOS, but most of this series will apply equally well to Linux - or even Windows console programming. If you're on Linux, use gcc. On Windows, you should be able to use Cygwin:

Great idea. I'm not a programmer and often read C is a difficult language to grasp for a beginner. Looking forward to following along those tutorials and I'll be checking out your Patreon page too.
Cheers !

This series is a great idea, can't wait to see the next videos. 😁
At the end please make a video on best practices to package programs in a way that is easy to install on FreeDOS or even have them included in the official distribution.

That is a whole lot interesting. One can take C skills not just to DOS but all sorts of retro and modern machines.

Really looking forward to this series! C is such a great language; I wish I had tried to invest more time in it when I was getting into Unix at the age of 12.

One of the few hard things about C can be pointers to arrays / functions(which themselves return former) but most "difficult" cases are more along petty text book examples testing a programmers abstract thinking capabilities.
Many programs, even elaborate ones, usually feature standard pointers providing 2 levels of indirection.

Thanks for your interesting videos!
