in reply to A perl os
I would hardly call that an operating system. It is a shell that allows you to read and write to files but it is clunky at even doing that. I do seem to remember a discussion about a PerlOS somewhere but not as a production product. I wouldn't worry to much about this turning into an operating system anytime soon. At the moment it does not do any type of interaction with hardware, which an operating system is generally required to do.
