What will the operating system be able to do? Does it have a filesystem or multitasking?

Don't expect much. :P There will eventually be a filesystem, but it will be extremely simple. Probably just files, and no directory support.
Them TI-8x fonts ^.^
Nice so far by the way :D

That's just the default font of the LCD. If you search the driver chip this LCD uses on Google (https://www.google.com/search?q=hd44780+lcd&espv=2&biw=1280&bih=899&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=iEawVOawAY_-yQSd5IGgAw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAg), it looks like they all use the same font.
Yeah pretty much every cheap character LCD module uses one of those or a clone. It's an industry standard.

TI must have sent a lot of DMCA takedown notices or C&D letters in recent years, then >.<
Kidding aside, thanks for pointing out. I didn't realize those fonts were standard on those LCD's.
They look too alike the Casio font, you know? Just everything low-res have a similar font.
Oh and IIRC copyrights can't be applied to bitmap fonts for a reason I don't remember.

indeed. They look even closer to TI-84+ and 89T fonts though :P
