I don’t understand: what makes this “DOS-like”? Not even the command names match DOS, except for dir and cls, and the architecture and feature set are completely different. | |||||||||||||||||

The original blog post has more details: https://krusty.space/projects/rourexos/ Ultimately, it's an eye of the beholder type thing, but it seems very fair to call it DOS-like to me. The DOS inspiration is pretty blatant all throughout it from its aesthetic, commands (more than just dir and cls is shared), booting from a 1.44 floppy, etc. And if you are coming from a primarily windows computing background, then "DOS-like" is entirely appropriate to me. It looks like a fun project. | |||||||||||||||||

Single-user, single-task, VGA text-mode operating system with a basic filesystem (fat12), I guess. Note the “guest” username in the prompt is a const, not multi-user: https://github.com/krustowski/rou2exOS/blob/6f85955dd339f09d... | |||||||||||||||||
