Welcome to WolfOS, my Operating System overhaul for ComputerCraft. It is designed to be easy to use and has a user-friendly "text based" User Interface.
Latest News:
- I have shut down the WolfOS website, please go to my new website instead!
- Follow the development of 2.0.0 on GitHub!
- Check out the #wolfos IRC channel!

WolfOS does not overwrite any mod files, and is installed to each individual computer, in game.
- The OS currently has four native programs/utilities: File Browser, Disk Manager, Music Player and Text Editor. More will come!
- File Browser is used to view, move, copy, delete, and edit files on the computer.
- Disk Manager can rename, clone, and format floppy disks.
- Music Player plays music disks, obviously!
- Text Editor is for creating and editing .txt files.
- You log in with User Accounts, which you can create and save onto disks; or alternatively you can log in with the computer's Local User Account.
- The current program is displayed at the top of the screen.
- A Primary Drive can be set, which will be the default disk drive, and where User Account disks are automatically read from.
- The print mode can be changed between slow (animated) and fast. (Now set per user rather than per computer)
- User Account ID and Passcode (including the Local Account's) can be changed in the Control Panel, and the Local User Account can be reset from here too.
- All system info can be found in the System Information page in the Control Panel.
- Finally, WolfOS is installed via floppy disk, so it does not overwrite any files at all.
Note: The default passcode for the Local User Account is blank: "", so don't forget to change it!
Please suggest new programs and features/changes to the OS!

Installation Instructions
Start by creating a new floppy disk in game and set it a label. Then in the /computer/disk folder in your worldsave, open the labels.txt file and find the ID# that corresponds to the disk label you just set. That is the new disk.
From there, drop the contents of the '1' folder inside the .zip into the numbered folder that matches the ID# that corresponds to your disk you just created.
Next, insert that floppy disk into a computer and restart it. A menu should appear giving you options of which programs you would like to install. Next you will see the OS files being copied onto the computer, and once the on-screen prompt appears, pressing any key will eject the disk and reboot the computer again. You should now see that WolfOS is running on your computer!
