Reading through the first manual in the SDK has reminded me what the "pure small memory model" is.

The ES register is never corrupted (DS=ES=SS).

C implemented this, which was one of the main reasons why used it for the SDK.

I've heard that it's possible to implement this with C (and maybe ?), but I don't know how.

Some slight tweaks to my @DOSBox_Staging config, and I think I've settled on a winning combination.

I think the only two things I'd like are a keybinding to switch between windowresolution settings, and a keybinding to switch between cycles=auto and cycles=max. But I could try to do implement that myself.

Screenshots are of the SIBO Debugger, Draft 4.1,
C, and the original DOS Psion Series 3c emulator (not the MAME one).

Also spending time today learning about 's project (.PR) files, which are essentially makefiles. Quite pleased I found the manual.

Hennessey’s Venom 1000 Mustang GT500 is (allegedly) the quickest way to collect or deliver Christmas trees having recorded a speed of 192 mph with an illuminated Christmas tree strapped to its roof.
