512DevOS 0.07a README
By Anthony De Feo
========================

To install
--------------
DOS/Windows users: Put a floppy disk (with no important data) in drive A:, and run install.bat.  If you want to use 512DevOS under bochs, press CTRL-C when install.bat gets to "Press any key to continue...", and use devos.img as as an emulated floppy disk.  If you want to run it on a real computer, boot with the floppy in your A: drive.  

*nix users: Run "dd if=devos.img bs=1024 of=/dev/xxx" where "xxx" is your floppy disk drive.  Boot with the disk in your first floppy drive.  

Usage
------------
Press "h" at the prompt for help while the OS is running.  Commands are not case-sensitive  
The commands are:
c = Clear screen
o = relOad 512DevOS
r = Reboot computer
h = Help
v = Version information 
s = System halt 
f = Screensaver (I ran out of letters, no reason why this is "f")
t = Display current time
d = Display current date
F1 = load sector 1 from the floppy disk
F2 = load sector 2 from the floppy disk
F3 = load sector 3 from the floppy disk
F4 = load sector 4 from the floppy disk
F5 = load sector 5 from the floppy disk

Notes
-----------
This release optimizes the code for a smaller size, and adds the "D" command for displaying the current date.  
This is also the final release of 512DevOS.  From now on, my main focus will be on the Metropolis project.   

Thank Yous
-------------------
Thanks to everyone that contributed code.  Benjamin David Lunt of Forever Young Software helped greatly to debug the sector-loading code.  The original F1-F3 keys idea came from Christoffer Bubach.  YONG, on the forums, helps to optimize my code greatly, and finds bugs in almost every version.  I thank anyone who supports, works on, or uses this OS.  

Thanks again,
Anthony De Feo <xdatadrainx90@gmail.com>
