# TODO as of Septemember 2012

|
|
## C++
|
|
|
|
|
* Build with C++ support
|
2012-09-05 04:46:59 +04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Terminal Fixes ##
|
|
|
|
|
* Mouse features; mouse support in windowed mode
|
|
|
|
|
* Tab completion in shell (this is mostly a shell-specific thing)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Windowing System ##
|
|
|
|
|
* Graphical Login Manager
|
|
|
|
|
* Finish GUI toolkit
|
|
|
|
|
* File manager app
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Harddisk Drive Extras
|
|
|
|
|
* VFS support is still almost entirely non-existent
|
|
|
|
|
* Write support for EXT2 is still sketchy
|
|
|
|
|
* Still lacking fast read/write for IDE - needs more DMA!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Toolchain
|
|
|
|
|
* Finish GCC port
|
|
|
|
|
* Still missing a few things in the underlying C library
|
|
|
|
|
* Ideally, also want to be able to build natively, so need scripting, build utils, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
* Port ncurses/vim/etc.
|
|
|
|
|
* Native development requires good tools.
|
|
|
|
|
* Also port genext2fs.
|
|
|
|
|
* Directory support needs to be better integrated into the C library still
|
|

## Microkernal Readiness
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Deprecate ramdisks
|
|
|
|
|
* Haven't used them in development in over a year
|
|
|
|
|
* Not useful anywhere else due to their limiting sizes
|
|
|
|
|
* Implement module execution
|
|
|
|
|
* Instead of loading a ramdisk, modules should be standard binaries
|
|
|
|
|
* The binaries will be executed in a new "service mode"
|
|
|
|
|
* Implement "servicespace"
|
|
|
|
|
* Userspace, but at a different ring
|
|
|
|
|
* Special access features, like extended port access
|
|
|
|
|
* Higher priority scheduling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Services to Implement
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* PCI Service
|
|
|
|
|
* Graphics Management Service
|
|
|
|
|
* Compositor as a service?
|
|
|
|
|
* Virtual File System Service
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Heh... Consider writing some of these in better languages than C. May a D servicespace?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

TODO: Get D working.

## Old I/O goals
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### I/O
|
2011-10-23 03:20:57 +04:00
|
|
|
* `/dev` file system
|
|
|
|
|
* `/dev/fbN` and `/dev/ttyN` for virtual framebuffer terminals and graphics
|
2011-10-23 03:39:37 +04:00
|
|
|
* `/dev/ttyS0` for serial I/O
|
2011-10-23 03:20:57 +04:00
|
|
|
* SATA read/write drivers (`/dev/sdaN`)
|
|
|
|
|
* `/dev/ramdisk` (read-only)
|
|
|
|
|
* EXT2 drivers should operate on a `/dev/*` file
|
|
|
|
|
* Mounting of `/dev/*` files using a filesystem handler
|
|
|
|
|
* VFS tree
|
|
