There are three versions of OpenGEM available for download. OpenGEM Core, OpenGEM Complete, and OpenGEM Core Deutsch.

OpenGEM Core
Release 5

OpenGEM Core can be compared to DR's ViewMax file manager for DR-DOS 6 & 7. However, unlike ViewMax, OpenGEM Core can be expanded into a full GEM desktop, capable of running applications, through an simple packaging system. This is the next generation version of OpenGEM Core. It is designed to be a file manager for FreeDOS 1.0.
