Not sure... depends on how well I can adapt C to Basic or make a interpreter for c in Basic (how silly that may sound).

type command > debug.txt (enter) and then compile (enter) when it is finished after a few, type exit (enter), then send me that debug.txt.

Hey everyone!!
Qbinux is still under development. Due to some internal kernel problems. I might post the thing what is causing the problem and ask you guys to help me out. The thing is that I know where it goes wrong but I don't know how to fix it. Anyways, I could release the version with Qbash as a new tech-release until we can fix that tiny problem.
TTYL!!

Hey, seb. I looked at the code in the .bat file.
<stupid>
I forgot you had to compile in your directory with qb...

Well actually you don't... just make sure that you have pds... and that you have the dirs that contain the compiler executables are in your PATH.

I fixed the makedir-problem partly. Now the problem is that qbinux doesn't create the dir I'm asking it to make.

As to the former problem, I decided going back to the drawing table. I'm still drawing but the system is starting to get back in shape.
I'll keep ya all informed.

Okay, I know... two months have passed... I'm working on it...
Since I'm going back to school... might take a while but I should have a running demo before the end of this month and I'll post it along with an article for the QB-Express...
Let me know what you think this far of it...

In case you thought that QBinux is dead...
It isn't... It's a well busy time... I'm gonna be a dad this year, probably next month...
Due to circumstances, QBinux hasn't been updated for a while, but I'm working on it. I've returned the NVXFS (the NoViX FileSystem) for obvious reasons: a great piece of work from Z!re, and that I can't make one myself yet.
Currently I'm working on the ?eta-version of NVXFS for QBinux. This is just a lot of typing and that takes time.
I'm back... and so is Qbinux...

Congratulations, Seb! <flashback>

Great! Since you hadn't done anything (public) for the last few months so I thought you might have disappeared. I was ready to send a search party
Anyway, of course you should continue with QBinux! It's a great project, especially from such an enthusiatic person.

Another update:
I've found some lame program which is able to translate somewhat C to VB and with that I have some more readable code.
Right now I'm implenting some Kernel-stuff...
The boot and init-procedure are working almost as they should and the main core is getting in shape as well.
I'll try to upload a new beta before the end of next week.

As things are going right now, I'll be posting a beta version of the new 0.01 Qbinux, including QBash 0.01 over 15 hours from now.
Check it out then and let me know what you think...
