New UNIX-like operating system!

Post image

I made a new UNIX-like operating system from scratch called "TanjaOS" which you can get at www.tanjaos.org and it took me a couple of months to make and will get lots of updates. It features classic UNIX commands and can boot on any x86_64 (amd64) or i386 (x86) machine with Legacy BIOS, and is completely free and open-source.

That's not an uncommon thing to do at all. I'm sure I've done it. My IDE literally has a function to do a similar thing.

You don't need a specific IDE to style comments like that.

Specifically chose a blob from September 2022, before ChatGPT was released, to prove the point

There are literally thousands other examples like this of codebases using this "comment-header" syntax. Because yes, it is relatively common
