I saw that you can include programs with a resource pack.
Is it possible to create new read only memory folders?
And is it possible to overwrite existing programs like shell?

Yes you can but it is very risky.

CC will not let you edit/delete the files. So what you need to do is goto %appdata% and .minecraft/saves/[The name of your save]/computer/[The ID]/[All your CC files are here]/

An admin or some user might say that i am giving you instructions on how to brake computercraft. But remember that you are doing this at your own risk.

I will try to edit shell.lua after writing this reply.

Yes, that's their whole point, everything you put into a resource pack is put into every computer's rom, and having something at /programs/shell will overwrite the existing shell.

No, I mean new folders on the computer:
All are 'roms'.
/NewFolder
/rom
/stairs

that is not possible


well it kind of is, but you will have to get clever with the fs api and mount to those locations from other folders

But then I have to overwrite {[(almost)]} the whole fs api.

Why not simply stick those folder into the rom folder?
