WinDOS is a CLI operating system using a DOS-like environment. WinDOS X is a version of WinDOS extended by a graphical user interface.

*** WARNING: The WinDOS X OS is highly experimental software, not recommended for everyday use... ***

Features

  • !! HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE !!
  • Built on the Linux kernel.
  • Uses a DOS-like environment.
  • Uses a graphical environment.
  • The graphical environment works as an external extension to the text-based operating system. The system is independent from it.
  • Runs Windows software (EXE and MSI applications).
  • Runs Linux software (classic executables and AppImage applications).
  • Uses an automatic drive letter mapping system (known from DOS and Windows) instead of complicated mountpoint system used in Linux.
  • Uses Windows filesystems (NTFS/FAT32) for C: drive.
  • Keeps Linux system directories hidden for better orientation in the filesystem.
  • The project's goal is to develop such a Linux system that will be clear and usable for an ordinary Windows user.
