Re: [Dev-C++] My Operating System...

[Matthews <dem...@uw...>]

I believe that this person is using the term "operating system" in their 
loosest sense.  IE, a simple console program that interprets commands and 
will run external programs (as commands, so it'll call "dir.exe" if you 
type dir at the prompt).  I'm doing something like this, I'm writing a 
simple Dos emulator to replace the default Win2K prompt, which has some 
features I dislike.  In this case, the command line will simply be passed 
like a normal program if you call it with the entire string typed by the user.

Eg.

C:\>dir -a

would run "dir.exe -a" if you call it with the entire string.
