    Project mention: I Thought I Found a Bug | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-25

    I believe it is a bug in the the emulator's implementation of COMMAND.COM. Often, these DOS "emulators" re-implement the standard commands of DOS, including the shell[1]. This is in addition to emulating weird 16-bit environment stuff and the BIOS.

    The bug lies in any C program using stdio that assumes it's fine to do `fread` followed immediately by `fwrite`. The spec forbids this.

    To make matters more confusing, this behavior does _not_ seems to be in modern libc implementations. Or at least, it works on my machine.

    The original COMMAND.COM from MS-DOS probably did not have this problem, since at least in some versions it was written in assembly[2].
