Open your favorite text editor Notepad, Notepad++, Brackets, or whatever you like and create a file called something like can choose your own name of the file, don’t stick to my habits of bad names. There is a desktop environment called Orbital, and applications already include a calculator, file browser, image viewer, terminal emulator, 3D renderer, and a vi-like editor called Sodium. You will need to create a small batch file in order to get the server to run. You can also run Redox applications on Linux. It is Linux-compatible both at the syscall API level and at the syscall ABI (Application binary interface) level, subject to the same architecture. Redox has a POSIX-compliant C library written in Rust, called relibc. Redox will be a desktop operating system first, but both embedded and server uses are envisaged eventually. Real files are accessible through a scheme called file, which is widely used and specified in RFC 1630 and RFC 1738. This way USB devices don't end up in a "filesystem", but a protocol-based scheme like EHCI. Instead resources are distinguished by protocol. In contrast to "Everything is a file", Redox does not enforce a common tree node for all kinds of resources. Furthermore many file properties don't make sense on these 'special files': What is the size of /dev/null or a configuration option in sysfs? Situations like this are missing any logic. This leads to absurd situations like the hard disk containing the root filesystem / contains a folder named dev with device files including sda which contains the root filesystem. With "Everything is a file" all sorts of devices, processes, and kernel parameters can be accessed as files in a regular filesystem.
