GS/OS is an operating environment developed by Apple Computer for its Apple IIGS personal computer that uses the ProDOS filing system. It provides facilities for accessing the file system, controlling input/output devices, loading and running program files, and a system allowing programs to handle interrupts and signals. GS/OS was included as a component of Apple IIGS System Software versions 4.0 through 6.0.1.

These disks are downloadable from the Apple Site, but were compressed using a Classic Mac OS application, which doesn't run under OS X (Sheepshaver not counting). I extracted these on my iMac G3 so people who don't have the Classic OS can use them. This works with most IIGS emulators, including Kegs32, Bernie ][ the Rescue and Sweet 16.

Compatibility

Apple IIGS
Modern computers (Under an emulator)

It doesn't hurt having this program here,

but if some of you are really Picky (dick) as someone else said,

then the NEXTSTEP, RHAPSODY, MK Linux, A/UX and a few other software I've found,
shouldn't be here as well.

nonetheless, I have not seen any complain over those programs.

Hehe.
Can't control that. If it is not here, it will be uploaded again... Wink

I like it! Smile Looks like Atari GEM or FreeGEM/OpenGEM

Althought I'm an Apple ][GS User, I agree with MacinTricks.

I don't mean to be a dick, but this is clearly Apple II software (which I LOVE), but doesn't really apply here.

Yes.

But because it is not Mac related, no one should download it from there to upload it here. Wink

I still wait for someone to upload AppleWriter, a text processor application for Apple ][ computers...

(do not take this seriously)
