   Kanet updates GEOS Megapatch, geoDOS 64,

   =========== Forwarded message =============   
   (from "nonefornow" at the c-128.freeforums.net site)   
      
   Markus Kanet has updated the GEOS MegaPatch program.  A D81 containing the   
   upgrade files for both C64 and C128 is available here.   
      
   https://gitlab.com/mkslack/Area6510/tree/master/releases/megapatch64_128   
      
   He also has made available the source code here   
      
   https://gitlab.com/mkslack/Area6510/tree/master/doc/megapatch64_128/current   
      
   Here below I am reporting his complete announcement.   
      
   "Hi there!   
      
   It has been a while... but after nearly 20 years a new release for GEOS   
   MegaPatch V3.3 is available for download!   
      
   GEOS MegaPatch V3 is a system upgrade for GEOS 2.x. It supports many hardware   
   devices like 1541,71,81, CMD FD,HD,RL, and as a new feature since the last   
   release from 2003: Support for SD2IEC devices with NativeMode disk images up to   
    16Mb. Also additional    
   SuperRAM drives up to 16Mb are possible (if you have Hardware like   
   Ultimate64... or VICE).   
      
   MP3 also supports many RAM expansions like C=REU, GEORAM, RAMLink or RAMCard.   
   It has a TaskManager which allows up to 8 Tasks active at the same time. You   
   can switch between many applications using C=+CTRL (or using GEOS.TaskMSE and   
   left+right mouse    
   button). Requires lots of RAM!   
      
   I have tested this release with GEOS 2.0-US and GEOS 2.0r-US(GEORAM). On   
   GEOS128 only GEOS 2.0(with C=REU) has been tested.   
      
   Note that this release does not include a DESKTOP manager. You need a DESKTOP   
   application like DESKTOP (from GEOS 2.x), DualTop (my preferred DE), TOPDESK   
   (used by many German users...) or GeoDOS (an GEOS application developed and   
   updated in 2018 by    
   myself).   
      
   The English release is based upon the same source code as the German release   
   but has not been tested that much. Most of the translations are based on my   
   very poor 20 years old English. Feedback is welcome!   
      
   The release can be downloaded here.   
      
   The Source Code is available as Plain Text here.   
      
   Please excuse my bad English since that is not my first language. If you have   
   any questions i will give my best to help but technical English may be much   
   more complicated.   
      
   Markus"
