[ros-kernel] RE: Re: Do not think about a shell yet!

[Steven E. <Ste...@kn...>]

This is why I want to get MC-mingw working on ros. Even though a dos-like
isnt part of the NT/2k/XP system, it would be nice to have this for now.

Once the GDI and dialog/user libs are a little better then I can see the
need to focus on writing the explorer replacement.

question, how are you going comfertably test stuff if you dont have a
shell
to run this stuff ?

then you would need to reboot al the time to test one part of the
kernel.
with a shell more comfortable means of testing are introduced which are
more
relyable (real life based)
I mean it's nice to have your kernel load a predefined executable but
having
a shell makes it come alive.
People look at it and say: "it is interactive" not just: "its boots and
then
it ends"
