Ah yes, the first version does indeed sound DOS-like. The second one diverges quite a bit though.

Fun project indeed.

You are right, it goes way ahead the first iteration. I call it DOS-like because of its resemblance to the Text mode-only operating systems (and to MS-DOS especially). On the other hand, it shares very little as the architecture, command set, or hardware utilization approach are concerned when compared to MS-DOS.
