My windows now have minimise buttons, but no taskbar to minimise to

Hi nakst, your UI is really impressive! Do you have any pre-built release images I can try? I had trouble with your build tools the last time I tried to use them.

also, I noticed you moved to bitbucket but left your github repository with a notice as its HEAD - why not just push to both? I moved to Gitlab myself a few months ago but I still push to github as a mirror - the great thing about git is you can push to multiple remotes and keep them all in sync.

, I see you describe your OS as "completely from scratch" but your userspace seems to be based on Musl, freetype, and a number of stb libraries - that seems misleading to me (especially as someone who has made an effort to turn a "mostly-from-scratch" OS with similar third-party elements in its userspace into a completely-from-scratch OS with no third-party code).

My windows now have minimise buttons, but no taskbar to minimise to

Sorry, there are no releases yet. The project is still too early in development. However, much of the build tools have been improved recently, so perhaps you could try again?

My windows now have minimise buttons, but no taskbar to minimise to

I wanted to test it out, so I tried to compile it, but:

Code:

checking for shl_load... configure: error: Link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES.
Makefile:10800: recipe for target 'configure-target-libstdc++-v3' failed
make: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1

I did get this error myself, but it seems the rest of the build continued anyway and I did manage to get it running. I suspect nakst's build system is building some unnecessary components...

Some of this is quite impressive! Your UI elements themselves are very cool, especially with the transition animations on your buttons.

The icon list widget is also impressively complete.

However, it seems like system performance is highly dependent on whether the mouse is moving... and not in the usual way where things slow down when the mouse moves but rather it seems you have timers that are somehow bound to mouse movement - the faster I move the mouse the faster the text cursor blinks.

Help Me about Operating System Coding. I can only know to print a text.

I want to code an operating system that looks like MS-DOS. I want C, not Assembly.

I implemented support for VirtualBox's "Seamless" mode. It doesn't work perfectly with my default decoration theme, since the shadows are a baked-in part of the borders. I wrote a quick blurb on it in the wiki. It's a pretty simple interface.

Two reasons: I don't know how git works, and I don't want my OS hosted on a service owned by Microsoft. klange wrote: , I see you describe your OS as "completely from scratch" but your userspace seems to be based on Musl, freetype, and a number of stb libraries - that seems misleading to me (especially as someone who has made an effort to turn a "mostly-from-scratch" OS with similar third-party elements in its userspace into a completely-from-scratch OS with no third-party code). For me, "from scratch" is more about design. The OS is not a Unix clone - unlike many others. I'm also trying to replace many outdated OS concepts and replace them with new ones, although few of these have been implemented yet. But I'll be happy to admit the word "completely" is possibly exaggeration.

No dice, and your build system is not very friendly to trying to rebuild - your manual patching is particularly scary. I was hoping you could just upload an ISO somewhere to try out...

Man, keep going with your coding style, it is really nice when you can look at someone's code and not get a seizure. Nicely written, easily understandable, no weirdly named variables. I wanted to test it out, so I tried to compile it, but: Code: checking for shl_load... configure: error: Link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES. Makefile:10800: recipe for target 'configure-target-libstdc++-v3' failed make: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1 Don't know if this is the problem Kevin's been having.

I spent of bunch of time cleaning up my text editor and adding features, including syntax highlighting. Now it's actually pretty usable!

I somehow broke building the standard C++ library, and I'm not sure what I did. But it's not necessary anyway. /shrug. Quote: Some of this is quite impressive! Your UI elements themselves are very cool, especially with the transition animations on your buttons. Thank you! Quote: The icon list widget is also impressively complete. Really? It's in the middle of a rewrite and there are loads of missing features. You used to be able to resize/sort columns, make a selection box, use keyboard input...

I'm assuming you're running it on Qemu? There seem to be a lot of timing issues of Qemu. But if you run it on VirtualBox (or real hardware), it runs just fine. It's something I'm investigating

Took a while as i had to sort out some issues with how keys were transferred around in my system, and had to improve the speed of cross process interrupts. Now its possible to open the application search dialog with shortcut alt + f. This dialog will function a bit like the program search in iOS

I want to code an operating system that looks like MS-DOS. I want C, not Assembly.
