I've just realized something.

This constitutes an alternate vision for what a
32-bit version of MSDOS should look like.

It still has an MSDOS-like API, but because they
are wrapped in C functions instead of directly
coding an INT 21H, I was able to bypass the
application coding an INT 21H. That could be
added, but it would happen outside of the
application.

And a C library is provided too. Why not?

And the BIOS layer could in fact be standalone,
or even UEFI-based, rather than being dependent
on some other OS such as Amiga OS.

BFN. Paul.
