It's a shame it's not finished, I was interested in this.

"Shell" is a very subjective word these days. For some people it could mean "terminal" (how did you think "SHELL" got its name for M$QB?), and others who are old enough think about the greatest feature of MS-DOS v4.

Wait, what was the greatest feature of MS-DOS v4?? 
I came onto the PC scene towards the end of the Windows 3.1 era, and I think DOS was up to v6? 
BTW I think I meant desktop environment rather than "shell" - a front end interface like Gnome, Mate, KDE, XFCE, Windows 3.1, etc. I'm going to fix the title of this post, thanks for pointing that out!
