It is a system, on which I was working for about week... (4 or 5 hours per day) Because I am Assembly n00b Three commands, for now, later I will maybe add more. BTW, it's my first try to write an operating system.

Yeah, emulator for java xD This release has no bugs, I think (at least, I haven't discovered anything yet). In next release I'm going to do a activity bar at top of screen, so bugs expected.

Yes, if activity bar is what i think it is you're gonna have to probably re-write scrolling and stuff (if you were doing it the easy way till now)
What easy way? I didn't understand. BTW: I just realised, that your system does not have shutdown command. If you want an APM system shutdown version just PM me.

Looks good. Tried on a VM and it ran nice. Tried it (Just for fun) in my 286 and it froze

It loaded to the Command Prompt: Then when you run Help, it froze

Well, there are two ways to print text on the screen by using INT 10h. If you set AH=0Eh (the teletype output, or so it is called on Wikipedia), everything is done automatically; i mean the scrolling, and moving cursor. It's quick and easy if you're just scrolling the whole screen. However if you want to, for example, exclude one line (or more) from scrolling you'd have to manually print a character (AH=09h), move the cursor (AH=02h) and scroll the screen (AH=06h).

Not that i don't need any help; also making a project together would be exciting. However i treat my first OS as a kind of research project, to learn to do all of it. When i reach a certain stage, maybe i will be thinking about some sort of a bigger project...
