My favorite operating system is Primos, especially rev 19.4 and later,
which allow dynamic linking to libraries, and user specified search rules
for the libraries.  It is also easy to add your own command processor.

I just wish they would implement some Unix features in Primos (like uucp).
Primix (Prime's attempt at Unix :-(, is too crippled at the current release.
