It’s been a while since it last happened. We’ve been working a lot on 五OS recently, and managed to implement a lot of things. This includes :

  • An “events” system, which allows applications to receive events
  • A basic buffer used only for stdin, allowing an application to “read” from the console
  • Various improvements of kernel modules

And finally, yesterday evening, I was able to write the first 五OS console “emulator”, with 3 commands : help, echo and exit.

Some documentation on the modtool utility was also released.
