Symmetry

I just committed Revision 17 of SoS into the SVN repository.. Here’s what’s changed:

I added a lot of features to the text mode handler - now you can have different colours and newlines, and the display can now scroll.

SoS can now switch into Vesa modes - I had some VBE switching code in my old OS, which I have ported. I don’t intend to make a GUI or window manager just yet though - I want a really solid base (with multitasking, disk access, application loading support etc.) this time before I start on that.

I’ve also just started working on setting the GDT, and then I’ll be able to start on interrupts.

You can grab the code over at our Google code site.
