This github repo is effectively abandoned. I've thought of making a "TextPYOS - Recode" or "TextPYOS2", since the layout of the github and the project it's self is old and confusing. If I choose to do such, I will add a link to the new page. I'm not sure when this will be out, if I decide to re-release it, but I'm not done with TextPYOS!
TextPYOS is a simpler version of older text-based operating systems, mostly MS-DOS, Linux, ect...
TextPYOS is a full python project, meaning that other coding languages will not be used (unless it will make it easier to do a task.)
TextPYOS is open-source, under the MIT license.
For more information, please see the MIT LICENSE
If you have any questions, problems, or suggestions please feel free to reach out to me!

Please note that it may take me a while to respond since I develop this in my free time.
