  • Whoa! That aint bad....what you program that in? Looks good so far.

    I remember 2 years ago I made a GUI for DOS using Qbasic. Q knows a lot bout it. It was called "Impact Desktop". It was alright for my skill.
  • Yep, Impact DOS and Impact Desktop, ahh the days!

    I want a copy.
  • I'm going to continue to work on K OS. I have been inspired by WinBoards. I will keep posting updates.
  • Well, I hope that KOS and RogerOS get to be major OS' in the future. Maybe you guys can port some open source software to work with your OS'.
  • UPDATE:
    =Added a simple shell (part of kernel), that echoes keys as you type them.
    =Added Task Manager.

    Don't worry I've revised the whole setup program, so it runs better and doesn't cause errors like it did on this machine. (BSOD on Windows 98, NTVDM error in 2000/XP)
