  • [assembly] a multilingual "MORE" in 512 bytes

    This is a little thing that I worked on during a couple of evenings: a
    "MORE" command that adapts its language based on the LANG environment
    variable, but still fits in a single disk sector. I did it mainly
    because I was annoyed by the size of the FreeDOS MORE (7 KB, UPXed). It
    was also a nice pretext to play with the very cool A72 assembler that
    I have recently discovered. Source code included.

    Would be nice for it to also support multiple files and the ability to
    switch viewing the next file like FreeDOS MORE does.

    So, that it can be a full replacement for FreeDOS MORE.
