- Ramcard Support
- Use Virtal memory (page swapping)
to allow a concurrent system
- Expand ASTERIX into a "real" OS
- Code segments
- Do away with "sh <"
- Do away with declaring the input
file explicitly
- Get CBFORTH & Assembler going
- Create a few more commands:
shark/tar uuxfer xmodem
'rlogin' set-prompt dump
pwd nroff date
un/compress + games
- Have the disk drive(s) & RS232 as
devices
- Have the VICII as a device
(ie: echo "|00" >vic$20 - turns the
border black)
- Improve Ratsword, use a linked
structure rather than the 80X100
'screen' editor type
- Show cursor position in decimal
- Remember the filename
- Redesign to a 'proper' OS model
(ie: XINU)
- Improve the efficency of the I/O
routines. Currently limited to
600-700 chars/sec because there is
only chrin & chrout (getc, putc)
- Pascal, Small C, UUPC! (I can dream,
can't I?)
- Redefine the character set to show
TrueASC characters (tilte, pipe,,,)
- File wildcarding
