NodeOS - An event driven operating system for the web

You say "compile a port SDL". Does that mean you want to compile SDL on your OS too? Or only port it to your OS? What about the basics of the kernel design? Do you intend to support multitasking? Multi-users? Are you going to port other programs to it (bash, gcc)?

I intend to compile a custom port of SDL. Multitasking yes, multi-users no. Bash maybe not I will however (obviously) have to build a cross compiler. It would be fun to have FFMPEG running on the OS but for now SDL based apps are good enough.
@ ReturnInfinity: Interesting project. Yes its gonna be kind of a JeOS

As for the rest, let me just say, Assembly macros are beautiful things.

Try sloccount instead of wc.

It just blows my mind how many niche tools/standards you know!

Code: Select all

SLOC    Directory       SLOC-by-Language (Sorted)
4258    src             ansic=2880,asm=1378
159     klib            ansic=159

Total Estimated Cost to Develop                           = $ 128,536
 (average salary = $56,286/year, overhead = 2.40).

LOL I'm rich

It doesn't take too much for sloccount to value your project at several million dollars

The purpose is not to showcase the latest trends

And yet you named it after node.js and one of the primary aims is to run a javascript engine?
