* SYSLINUX -> SyslinuxH. Peter Anvin2008-10-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Adopt the moniker "The Syslinux Project", ordinary proper noun capitalization, to refer to the project as a whole. This leaves the all-caps SYSLINUX to refer to the FAT loader only. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* MEMDISK: default to "safeint" modesyslinux-3.73-pre3H. Peter Anvin2008-10-141-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | There is enough evidence that "safeint" is a decent compromise between The Right Thing[TM] and dealing with the reality of ultra-broken DOSen. Make it the default. Clean up some of the command-line parsing code and status printing. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

* Rename text documentation from *.doc to *.txtH. Peter Anvin2008-02-281-0/+202
Rename plaintext documentation from doc/*.doc to doc/*.txt, to avoid the chronic problem of web sites thinking they're in MS-Word format. Sigh. As if Microsoft somehow had a monopoly on the word "document".
