OK ... it does something Smile

+ works in DOS (mostly)
+ built-in tetris and pen[t]is
+ large memory hyper-fast copying
+ free

? uses Causeway
? source code not discoverable

- no docs
- http://www.dnosp.com/ is outdated
- compare feature crashes (see shot)
- doesn't show file attributes
- EMS & XMS crap not completely removed

I tried it in my DOSBox setting, where I still use the original 1.51 release of DOS Navigator. This one starts terribly slow in comparison, and I did not notice any new function that would make it worth to run this one instead of the original. I may try it on my P60 machine later (because I would like to check whether this incredibly long startup is because of some DOSBox fault, or is this "special" version so slow even on a real DOS machine).

DN was compressed therefore starts terribly slow. I uploaded new version with compression as alternative.
