Test Windows 1.0.12 for Developers

Hi, today I completed the kernel of my OS, and I decided to publish it before the release, in order to get help from another developers community. Help is needed to create that important programs under the OS API(For example: Paint, TaskManager, FileExplorer). Please send your programs to me on mail: udovin@outlook.com

OS API is located in the windows/nt/ (in multiple files).

What has been done in the operating system and what is not:
Kernel is ready, except the file system,
Code your desktop is not appended.

Download Windows: http://sdrv.ms/ZZy5CH

I use Google translate because I dont know English very good(I from Belarus).

Thanks for all!

You do know that Windows is heavily copyrighted right?
And when I try to run 'win' the screen just get's all black and nothing happens..

Use pastebin or few people will download your program.

And do as x0pk1n suggested and try to make a pastebin link with an Auto installer..

I working!

inb4 Microsoft sues you

Just look for articles about Macrosoft if you need more incentive.

Hm… I see a lawsuit coming. Your username is Microsoft and your OS is called Windows. Try Microshaft Winblows.

Even that would get him sued.

Please try to come up with original usernames and os names. This is annoying me a lot.

Not much you can do about it. Heck, he posted about HIS incomplete OS on MY OS's thread… Just ignore it and leave him be. Letting him learn from his mistakes it the best "punishment".

Hmm, nice "creative" names nut :P/>

Windows itself is regarded as unreliable, and I know people who actively avoid Windows (including me!), that and the legality would possibly be a pain, but considering this is a program for a computer in a game running on a computer, I don't think it will be that much of a problem.

Microsoft doesn't have time to be suing kids on a computer game forum… they will be busy using 40GB for their tablet OS…

But I did want to kind of stab myself in the foot after seeing this.

Off topic:
Why the foot? I mean it would make sense if you said the eye, but the foot?

Darn I guess this post needs some relativity to the thread… Umm, nice avatar…

Well, shooting yourself in the foot is a common metaphor used… and I was holding a knife while reading this…

BTW, I like my avatar too :P/>

Off topic (Once again)
You were holding a knife, why?

Umm… Relevance…. Mircosoft, your "OS" looks like Windows! (No brainer)

Hmm, nice sig. Although he should really be allowing images again…

Looking through the code, all you have done so far is add some bottle neck APIs that refer to the APIs already in computercraft, and a simple short coroutine manager. :-/

I reject your off-topic talk and substitute my own.

The second one answered my question… In reply to your video, I give you this:

EDIT: I reject this video for sake of keeping this "thread" clean. I counter-act this with another video! Darn Sammich, now you have Anime videos coming in my youtube's "Recommended For You" spot…

I agree with you, however I think we may be on either ends of the spectrum. Mac ftw.

Anyway, just a small problem Mr 'Microsoft'. It doesn't do anything, just a blank screen. A screenshot or even just working code would be nice.

The code is working, what you're looking at is the desktop

-- Desktop 0.1.1
local function desktop()
while true do
  local event, param1 = os.pullEvent();
 
  win.ui.render();
 
  if(event == "key") then
   if (param1 == 17) then
    -- Key W
    term.write("up");
   elseif (param1 == 31) then
    -- key S
    term.write("down");
   end;
  end;
end;
end;
local thread = win.nt.createThread(desktop);
thread:resume();

Found in: windows/ui/desktop.lua

Oh… who'd have know.

Except for the name the code looks pretty solid

Ok I rename my os to Squartus.

Damn.. And I who secretly thought of creating WinBlows8..
Me and my frnd thought of that when we had A German lesson and I thought.. WinBlows8
(Yes I know I don't pay that much attention on my German lessons, But I have a stinking teacher since I had a better one)
Since I think Windows 8 is just plain bad :P/>
