+You mentioned that OS9 for Motorola processors was pretty good.  While it is

+
+Use either MSDOS/VMS commands or UNIX, not a mixture
+
+Implement real pipes
+
+Use a real C compiler instead of Microware's C compiler which apparently came
+from a Cracker Jack box (no offense to Cracker Jack intended)
+
+Supply reasonable UNIX style tools and try to retain the same flag settings
+
+I would suggest the GNU software as a good place to start with some of these
+things.--
