I wonder in what language this was written in. ;)

  It's stated in the FAQ: Was PDOS written in C90? As a matter of fact, yes. PDOS was in fact written in C90.

    Yes, it's the only topic of the FAQ, hence the smiley.

      Curious question. How hard would it be to write an OS in Turtle Graphics?

  English.

    Unrelated (it's written C90, God's own programming language as far as the author believes), but this comment reminds me of "The Osmosian Order of Plain English Programmers", a project which may be on the same level of usefulness as PDOS. http://osmosian.com http://osmosian.com To say something positive, it's refreshingly different. I tried it out once, it seems to compile itself, but when I attempted to make literally any change it didn't work anymore. Whether trying to improve code generation, or just inserting a "Hello world" message somewhere.

      My flippant response aside, this is an awesome thing to learn about on a Sunday morning .. thanks for that! I might have to give it a whirl. Although ChatGPT seems to be making it easier and easier to program in English and get code in any language to run anywhere needed ..
