FETCH4FD.TXT:
========================================================


FETCH4FD
version 1.0
19.3.2024

Fetch4FD is a DOS port of utility NeoFetch known from Linux and other
UNIXes.
There already exists one such port named DOSFETCH by Leah Neukirchen
see: https://github.com/leahneukirchen/dosfetch

My implementations uses few small fragments from his code but it is heavily
reworked and extends its capabilities.

New features in FETCH4FD over DOSFETCH:

-screen is not deleted before program output
-output can be redirected to file
-program is multilingual - messages can be translated to other languages
Currently English, Czech and Russian are available
-help screen after FETCH4FD /?
-Correctly detects huge RAM sizes (even above 4GB)
-Correctly detects disk sizes bigger than 2GB
-Shows list of all available disk drives
-More informative CPU detection
-Information about DOS code page and country information



How the language customization works:
There are two possibilities:
1) Set two environment variables like in this example:
SET LANG = CZ
SET NLSPATH = C:\NLS
After that FETCH4FD expects file C:\NLS\FETCH4FD.CZ for reading messages.

2) Use parameter /L
FETCH4FD /L:CZ
In this case FETCH4FD expects file FETCH4FD.CZ in its directory
