Dev build 2026-11-08 (73f40a8)

Warning

This is not an official release. It's a build of the latest development code of Nextor, published so that new features and fixes can be tested before they make it into an official release. It may contain bugs: please report any problem you find in the issues section.

Built from commit 73f40a8 (2026-11-08). The kernel shows Dev build 2026-11-08 (73f40a8) under the version number when booting.

This release is replaced when a new dev build is published, and this list isn't updated in between, so some of the changes below might have been included in an official release already. For the official releases see the categorized releases page.

Assets

• Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.base.dat, Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.base.NO_UNDOC.dat: the kernel base files, to be combined with a driver using mknexrom.
• Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.StandaloneASCII8.ROM, Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.StandaloneASCII8.NO_UNDOC.ROM, Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.StandaloneASCII16.ROM, Nextor-3.0.0-dev-20261108.StandaloneASCII16.NO_UNDOC.ROM: the standalone kernel ROMs (with a dummy driver that handles no devices).
• ram-driver-example-dev-20261108.drv: the example RAM driver.
• nextor-dev-20261108.dsk, tools-dev-20261108.zip: the tools disk image and ZIP file, with NEXTOR.SYS, COMMAND3.COM, the MSX-DOS 1 system files, all the command line tools and the COMMAND3.COM help files.

Files with NO_UNDOC in their name don't use undocumented Z80 instructions, so they work on Z180 based machines.
