That’s quite the undertaking. It would kind of be nice to have easier tools, and more accessible ones. But you can’t create an OS in Ruby. At least, I doubt it. Maybe an overlay on top of other OS’, but still, that takes a lot of work, and a lot of people good at Ruby.

That said, you do realize people reimplement Unix tools all the time right?

I never said I would create an OS in Ruby.
I'm using C += 2 (my own language), C++, Crystal and Ruby
One more point, OS is such a weird term
Is GNU even an OS?
It's a collection of tools.
I have 57 or so working tools. No one can disagree with me on that, because
the tools exist.
Two other people have tried something similar
Most of the tools by others, with the exception of sponge, are quite
gimmicky
But doing sudo yum install moreutils doesn't hurt
Also, an overlay is fine. There are two programs not by me. I include viu
and tracefile and include licenses

Your idea of getting a better interface of a web browser is nice. The tabbed interface is hardly a good one IMO.
But maybe this will also inspire you:
It's a video presenting Eagle Mode. It's a program that uses a novel and experimental paradigm that gives you an infinite zoom interface, kind of like Google Maps. This program is basically a presentation that includes for instance a file manager, where you don't really open a file or directory, but zoom to it. It includes support for multitude of formats, like .pdf, .html, .zip, audio and video. It's a cool idea in my opinion and I think this may have some uses.
http://eaglemode.sourceforge.net/download.html
There is a Fedora package if you would like to try it.

Emerald-browser
Goals
Not bothersome (person shouldn't be bothered by anything)
Full control
To be fully written in C += 2
* Uses the same engine as Chrome, with QWebEngine
Ubuntu and fedora have packages
emerald-browser [number of terminals, default 1]
C += 2 compiler is called "g+". It's a wrapper for g++
Usage
g+ foo.cpp -O3 -Wall -Wextra -o foo
Example C += 2 program
---------------------------------------
main
puts("Hello world")
--------------------------------------
(No need for #includes)
g+ is written in Ruby. It could be ported to Crystal
TODO
1. Make g+ work better
It doesn't support classes, structs or namespaces currently
You can always #include C++ or C files though
C += 2 is, and always will be a PREPROCESSOR FOR MODERN C++. IT CAN DO
ANYTHING C++ CAN DO AND MORE.
Some things I want to implement
These should be a single unary option buton, like what GNOME 40 or Chrome
has.
In that, there should be many options. Maybe even things like Update System
There should be a close button for panes.
The source code should be tidied up, but please don't clutter it with too
much OOP.
Currently, everything gets googled. There could be a cache of some kind.
Everything you would want to do on your computer, should be doable in this
program. Currently, it makes a full-screen widget.
If there could be a Compiz cube for tabs, that would be really interesting.
There was a program that converted Chrome tabs to a filesystem extension.
Maybe something like this could be added.
Port to Mac.
Port to Windows??? No Terminal then
Port to FreeBSD
Would need to work for certain in X and Wayland
open should be improved
To open tabs, do
open [query1] [query2?]... (number of Google results per query to show in
panes)
Example
open 'ruby talk' 'ruby docs' 3
That would open 3 google results for ruby talk, and 3 google results for
ruby docs
googler is used to search Google.
Googler is used to search google. Googler is automatically installed.
Googler is written in python
* This browser should be as fast or faster than Chrome.
* Downloads don't currently work
* Fullscreen doesn't currently work
* Opening pages in new tabs doesn't currently work
* You currently can't close tabs, only open them
* The simplest way to close the browser currently is killall emerald-browser
* Add signal and slot to close program when window closes. This doesn't
currently happen.
Back and forward buttons should be added, somewhere.
Currently, you can right click, and do navigation
A way to type in addresses manually should be added.
Currently, you can do echo [full url] > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo
Doing echo '/home/' > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo should work
* Multiple instances needs to work
* Want installation to be super simple. Download a binary
* Let's get a fully functional browser, THEN care about packaging
If there could be a flip 3d for tabs, that would be cool
Does anyone know bcat? It's a Ruby program
It's browser cat
One uses it like this
sudo yum upgrade | bcat
One sees the output in their browser
It's not my program
There's an interesting cover flow widget for Qt. Maybe that could be useful.
Some pictures
With Compiz

I definitely have the mindset of fixing not just unix, but anything,
period. Everything must be going through a state of continuous
improvement all the time in my mind.
For example, I don't use "ls" and "cd" so much anymore as I now rely
on the TUI (Text-based User Interface) 'gdr' or simply 'gd' (go to
directory) found in this gem:
That project was attempting to fix all unix commands with Ruby
counterparts, but it hasn't moved much beyond that 'gd' command.
Still, I use it to move through all my directories fluidly. It's like
have that old Windows 3.1 and DOS tool: Norton Commander (not sure who
here is as old as me to know about it)

* Downloads don't currently work
* Fullscreen doesn't currently work
* Opening pages in new tabs doesn't currently work
* You currently can't close tabs, only open them
* The simplest way to close the browser currently is killall emerald-browser
* Add signal and slot to close program when window closes. This doesn't currently happen.Back and forward buttons should be added, somewhere.
Currently, you can right click, and do navigation
A way to type in addresses manually should be added.
Currently, you can do echo [full url] > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo
Doing echo '/home/' > /tmp/emerald-browser-fifo should work
* Multiple instances needs to work
* Want installation to be super simple. Download a binary
* Let's get a fully functional browser, THEN care about packaging
If there could be a flip 3d for tabs, that would be cool
Does anyone know bcat? It's a Ruby program
It's browser cat
One uses it like this
sudo yum upgrade | bcat
One sees the output in their browser
It's not my program
There's an interesting cover flow widget for Qt. Maybe that could be useful.

It's a video presenting Eagle Mode. It's a program that uses a novel and
experimental paradigm that gives you an infinite zoom interface, kind of
like Google Maps. This program is basically a presentation that includes
for instance a file manager, where you don't really open a file or
directory, but zoom to it. It includes support for multitude of formats,
like .pdf, .html, .zip, audio and video. It's a cool idea in my opinion
and I think this may have some uses.There is a Fedora package if you would like to try it.

You can always #include C++ or C files though
C += 2 is, and always will be a PREPROCESSOR FOR MODERN C++. IT CAN DO
ANYTHING C++ CAN DO AND MORE.Some things I want to implement
These should be a single unary option buton, like what GNOME 40 or Chrome
has.
In that, there should be many options. Maybe even things like Update System
There should be a close button for panes.
The source code should be tidied up, but please don't clutter it with too
much OOP.
Currently, everything gets googled. There could be a cache of some kind.
Everything you would want to do on your computer, should be doable in this
program. Currently, it makes a full-screen widget.If there could be a Compiz cube for tabs, that would be really interesting.
There was a program that converted Chrome tabs to a filesystem extension.
Maybe something like this could be added.Port to Mac.
Port to Windows??? No Terminal then
Port to FreeBSD
Would need to work for certain in X and Wayland
open should be improved
To open tabs, do
open [query1] [query2?]... (number of Google results per query to show in

Isn't this called a Zooming User Interface (a ZUI)?
I hadn't thought about this kind of thing since I was a kid (like 13
or so years ago).I'm going to try the program that you linked out!

Your idea of getting a better interface of a web browser is nice.
The
tabbed interface is hardly a good one IMO.But maybe this will also inspire you:

It's a video presenting Eagle Mode. It's a program that uses a novel
and
experimental paradigm that gives you an infinite zoom interface,
kind of
like Google Maps. This program is basically a presentation that
includes
for instance a file manager, where you don't really open a file or
directory, but zoom to it. It includes support for multitude of
formats,
like .pdf, .html, .zip, audio and video. It's a cool idea in my
opinion
and I think this may have some uses.There is a Fedora package if you would like to try it.
