Well, the ITS manuals not once refer to something as "operating system" which would include any applications.
Nor is ITS refered to as a "kernel", it is refered to as a "system", a system to operate a KL10. A operating system. Even Richard, who hacked on the damn thing, calls it a operating system. Care to quote something, _anything_ from that time that would actually support your case about "operating system" being applied to whole systems including applications? I have, ITS. Even the name suggests it. I don't see how it suggest that it is a kernel, which you imply that it is. And please stop wasting my time, I have better things then arguing about something that we both agree on: operating system is not a formally defined term. It can mean just the kernel, it can mean kernel, and lots of programs. In the case of GNU, it means the later and has always meant the later. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
