JosJuice, assembly programs will run at 6MHz by default on every calculator model. They are fully capable of running at either 6MHz or 15MHz on the 83+SE and newer, as chosen by the programmer.
Yes. What I was saying was that there was no way for the shell to prevent programs from running in 15 MHz.

There's no way to prevent anything from happening.

Wait, is that an Axe I see as a window icon in the second window?

if you want to 'compete' with other shells it would probably need to be a multi-page app, especially because axe is a bit larger than asm. i love the way it looks, though, and would probably use this regardless =D

IMHO to compete it would have to be the opposite. Certain people dislike using DCS regularly because of its size, but they like to use it for its features. DCS pretty much outmatches MirageOS now.

This looks nice by the way and I like the look, but with Doors CS it will be hard to compete, so my suggestions is to make your shell do things that DCS doesn't, such as fitting in one single page app. It doesn't necessarily need as many features, but try to provide enough, while sticking to a 1 page app and some appvars (which might be the challenge, especially that Axe code is larger than ASM sometimes).

I think DCS will still be the most popular shell regardless, but it would be nice to see how this turns out, plus this would be another alternative to the existing shells.

Yeah, I'm going for smallness and other constraints.  And programs run differently under Gnome than they do from TIOS.  I'll wait to explain how it works until later, cause it's quite complex.

EDIT: This project is hereby rechristened to DwarfVM.

You may have already said this, but what is the API for this like? (Note, if that is under how it works, then by all means, wait)

I see. However could you explain a bit what you mean by running differently? Does it means that your shell will not support any of the existing ASM programs and games compiled for other shells?

As for the name changes I assume it is due to the name criticism on Cemetech? Unfortunately I do not know how Gnome looks like, since I am not a Linux user, so I am not one to judge on the name. The new one seems nice too, but what does WM stands for?

WM == Window Manager indeed.
Also, the name was thought up by none other than the infamous nikky.

Ah ok. I thought it was a shell, though? ??? (In this case it would have to be DwarfShell or something like that?) Or maybe I am missing the relation between WM and this program.

It is a shell that provides the ability to use it's built in window manager.

Ah ok I see now. I wasn't sure because both shell and vm names seemed to be totally different things.
