I did a quickie and it seemed not to be... at least your trick that 
worked with Pronto and ES didn't work with ZDOS.

I used the 2.3 hack.  I made the hack by crossing it with two other DOS 
variants, both called "DOS 3.4", one of which shared ZDOS 2.2's 
"clicking" and one of which didn't.

o.o

FDOS is one I haven't heard of, prolly because I come from the US.

I've seen a few other hacks myself: "DOS 3.4" (clicky and clickless 
variants), "ESDOS ][" (variant of ProntoDOS), PigDOS, QDOS, Diversi-DOS 
48K (*cough*shareware*cough*) etc.

There appear to be two versions, at least; yours has a free space hack 
while I am aware of a version that does not have it.
