No problem,
you can make easily your custom sinclair - shell if you read the readme file. Otherwise you can send us a screenshot and the sinclair truetype font if available. We can then implemnt it into the package.

ANY OTHER Retrostyled SHELLs are welcome - just send the screenshots and fonts(if neccessary) to team maui.

sinclair?

TOS Shell

As far as I know, there was never a TOS Shell in any of the STs. TOS is basically an MS-DOS style operating system which GEM (the GUI) runs under. There is no command line interpreter in ROM -- the system boots directly into the GUI desktop the second you turn it on, and TOS can only be accessed by programs via OS calls (specifically, trap exceptions).
If you wanted to run a command line interpreter, then you'd have to find one, and run it from disk. There are lots of third party ones out there; I'm not aware of any especially popular ones though.

However, it should be possible to do something in the style of either GEM, or the TOS 'text output mode', which is used for showing text files, among other things (but not for interpreting commands).
See http://littlebluerodent.tripod.com/atari.htm for some TOS/GEM screenshots.

Thanks!
Please vote for RetroShells!
Do you know how the TOS Shell was on the atari ST?
The Atari St Icon is already made but we haven´t found any screenshots.



Cool!

This is a pretty nifty little set of shells, good work guys. Kind of nostalgic to open up a shell with the old Atari-800 look :)
