 ...and what about other Primos niceties:

 As in UNIX much of the operating system is in high level language(s). The
older versions were relatively compact and written in FORTRAN IV...this may
no longer be considered all that wonderful but it sure made it easy for a
numbercruncher to make changes (like putting in real passwords).

PRIMOS 16 was one of the nicest first software playthings a person could ask
for. Warning: I use Unix, VMS, MS-DOS, TOPS-10 and CMS every day which makes
me something of a dillettante. The only systems I've played with the guts of
are Primos 16, MS-DOS and UNIX 4.X and never at the kernel level.
