FreeCOM 0.85 release

The release provides multiple variants, recommended is one of the Open Watcom xms-swap versions.

The files with ow are built with Open Watcom and the files with bc are built with Borland C/C++ 3
Currently only English xms-swap GCC (ia16) built version is provided, please see automatic builds for latest builds with GCC.

The files with -intl use English language for critical errors and provide strings.* for all supported languages.
The included *.cln files do not have a language appended, so run "copy /b command.cln + strings.lng command.com" to get
a version with most strings in the language of your choice. The included command.com and xmsswap.com are in English.

The xmsswap.* files are recommended for computers with XMS memory, as XMS memory is used for swapping. The command.* files use standard swapping and swap to disk. (rename to command.com if using intl archives, or use command.com in xms-swap subdirectory for language specific archives)

The language specific versions are compiled for the specific language so the critical errors will also be translated if available. These are only provided in Open Watcom builds. *** The system codepage needs to be set to an appropriate setting for the language files to display correctly.
