Pretty nice, from what I can see. However, I can't seem to find any hotkeys for multitasking, nor any menus. Also, the consistency of interface is not, as some apps have [X] buttons, the terminal doesn't, and the file manager has an X in a different place. Is the 'exit application' hardcoded in each application?

anyway, great OS! there could be more programs to start, but it's great in every other way!

There isn't a full multitasking system, only an API to run background processes. For example, if you wanted to run some kind of networking program in the background, you could code it in a function then do JakeOS.startProcess(func,"Networking").

No, I can't add it to it, even Glass UI doesn't have it.

But it will… The API will be open-source,meaning that you can copy/paste the code and modify it as you wish.
