Whilst reading up on some system commands for a coursework in Operating Systems, I accidentally bumped into how I can get colours on the screen using the ncurses library. I also got a bit more insight in how one can allow for resizing windows. Good fun :)

Finally got my head around to do some proper coursework, but alas, not the one that is due in first… At least it is something. What I have done includes writing a short essay on “Compatibility in OS Design” and starting to write a short essay on mutual exclusion. What’s left then of that coursework is a short “compare and contrast” essay on DOS, UNIX and MS Windows (any flavour).
