I'll think about it.

EDIT: Outposted by the cat! Ok, ProgrammingFreak, you're in.

Ok.

And you probably should thank meowmeow too, because if he hadn't outposted me assuming you were in, I was going to say no.

EDIT: Dang, that cat is as fast as lightning! Outposted AGAIN.  Yeah, they need to sign up. Also, that idea for booting would work, but it feels like cheating because it isn't running as the OS itself. I have gotten into looking at GRUB, the Linux bootloader.....

Bump.

I am designing a system where SIMPL-DOS external apps (another project I am working on) can only be run in SIMPL or with it on the computer.

Ok, forget the boot idea. It won't work, it seems.

I know that using that isn't compatible with 98 and below, but noone uses them anyway.

I call you the cat because it is quicker to type than meowmeow55, meowmeow, or meowX2. Also, cats are fast, and you seem to always outpost meh. 

guys i wont be able to be  on for 2 weeks! i got in trouble.    but i will keep learning

check out sig

People, just because I am talking to a particular person, it doesn't mean I don't want you to post. We need input and suggestions!

Darn, I was messing around on the Xbox, and meowmeow got on our secret thing, and left before I got back!

Ok, the secret is a Freenode channel: #simpl-dos.

Get on it if you want, I am on it.

6th post. 

I am back from camping. Also, I am on the #simpl-dos channel, if anyone wants to talk to me, or ask me something.

Sorry, no relatives allowed.    Besides, I only want one more person to join.

Downloaded source. How do I compile to EXE? WinRAR's SFX Self-Extractor?

SIMPL-DOS is well written, great as a shell replacement if it had much more features like a built-in file browser, ran the GUI-style DOS apps straight in the prompt (CMD does support that I think) and had other things of the like that made it more dynamic and better. I'm an Intermediate Level batch programmer, so I'll start now if you want. Additionally, you can simulate GUIs in DOS with things like

Glad you like it. But i must point out that it does have a file browser (FileSnake, accessed through the FILES command), and I am not the only one who makes SIMPL-DOS. meowmeow55, ThePCKid, and ScratchREALLYROCKS also are on the dev team (even though only meowmeow has made contributions right now.).

I have actually experimented with ASCII-based graphics, but batch doesn't seem to like it.    Also, you can join.
