When a program wants to write something it should ask for x amount of sectors, put the data in the file buffer and then ask the kernel to write it

Add the command open {filename} and it will open the file in place of the terminal

The current code is mostly un optimised and very messy, due to my lack of assembly knowledge, cleaning and optimisation will be very important to the future life of this project

Currently, the terminal pushes the parameters to the stack but, unless there is the right amount of parameters sent to each function, the stack is not cleaned up after

The colour function should take a colour and change future terminal commands to that colour

The discover function should just display all the files on the floppy disk

Currently the OS can only access the disk it was launched from which limits the total space of the os

If applications want to store large bits of data separately and retrieve them later but wish not not keep a record of them themselves the kernel should provide support for this, and if a program tries to access data that is protected by the kernel then it should not allow it

When I write this onto my floppy disk windows does not read it any more, it is still there in my file explorer but no ability to read the floppy nor any ability to see details about the floppy disk

Most likely because the build currently just flat out ignores the FAT12 file system when writing the bios
