I began working on tools for ES/2, and realized I wanted to create a
more DOS-like environment from which to launch and validate various
components of my core OS. As such, a precursor was needed. I've
dubbed it ES/1.

ES/1 will be a text environment with a simple API for accessing FAT12
and FAT16 devices. It will provide some basic UI features so that
little programs can be run which do things in a nice text UI.

I plan to create my remote kernel debugger, compilers, assemblers,
linkers, and COM programs for communicating with the remote machine.

I'm currently working on the UI. Once completed I'll use it to build
everything else inside. It will support a CAlive/1 language, which
is a very stripped down version of my full CAlive language. It will
convert CAlive/1 code to unoptimized assembly for running in a real-
mode environment. I will build a host of tools in this OS which
will then be used to continue all development for ES/2.

ES/2 will also host a startup mode which is a version of ES/1, and
will allow basic access to the root directory of on FAT12, FAT16, and
FAT32 disks. This will allow recovery and diagnostic tools to be run
in the ES/1 environment.

Looking forward to this project.

The Muslim is on the right path. He has rejected truth and is on
the path to Hell. It is the right path for one who rejects
truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

The Buddhist is on the right path. He has rejected truth and is on
the path to Hell. It is the right path for one who rejects
truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

The Hindu is on the right path. He has rejected truth and is on
the path to Hell. It is the right path for one who rejects
truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

The atheist is on the right path. He has rejected truth and is on
the path to Hell. It is the right path for one who rejects
truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

The agnostic is on the right path. He has rejected truth and is on
the path to Hell. It is the right path for one who rejects
truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

YOU TOO are on the right path if you have rejected truth, because
you are also on the the path to Hell. It is the right path
for one who rejects truth, rejects Jesus Christ.

-----
But for the one who receives Jesus Christ...
For the one who asks for and accepts forgiveness for their sin by
what Jesus Christ did for them at the cross, that blessed cross
where He took on our shame, where His blood poured out in our
place, where He transferred our sin onto Himself, and where He
then left this Earth to go and pay the true price of that sin
before God Almighty to the point where He was crushed ... yea,
that soul is on the right path because they embraced truth, they
grabbed hold of it with both hands and would not let go.

-----
Based on where you are, you ARE on the right path today. The only
question is ... is the path you're on the right one to be on?

IT IS the right one for where you are, but is it the right one for
where you want to be? Ask yourself that question, and ponder it
when you are alone, in silence, with only you and your thoughts.
Ask yourself if you are on the path you want to be on given the
eternal future ahead of you?

-----
The time is now, today, right now. Ask Jesus to forgive your sin
and leave your path of death behind, and walk the path of life
leading to be with God in the paradise of Heaven forever. It's
His domain, and it is splendid beyond imagination. It's what He
has in store for all who return to Him from their sin and sin-
loving ways. In fact, it's what He had in mind for all souls
before sin entered in and destroyed everything.

Jesus loves you. It's why He came here to this Earth ... to
save you. He came to make a way Home for you. He came because
He wants you to be with Him where He is in the paradise of Heaven,
seeing all things He has in store for you, in all their full glory.

Thank you,
Rick C. Hodgin

The user interface for the DOS-like environment is becoming mature. It
now supports a multi-document interface with custom rendering. It has
input fields for types: text, multi-line edit, checkbox, button, label.
It has a common UI that is available through a run-time linked DLL, and
is being expanded to support disk services, memory services, for FAT12
and FAT16.

Progress continues. I plan to post some screenshots in the near future
(James 4:15 "Lord willing").

Post all the spam you want, Peter. It won't affect me or my mission.
All it will do is reveal your core character for all to see.

I continue to keep you in my prayers. Even my whole family is praying
for you.

At least you post under the name Peter Cheung this time, Peter.

Why are you doing this? Ask yourself that question, Peter.
