I've unfortunately lost many of my early projects, but I remember that younger me thought single-letter variable names were really cool. I spent a lot of time using box drawing characters to try to mimic a GUI in DOS. I was totally infatuated with "dosshell"[0] which was included with my copy of MS-DOS 5.
