Panos (operating system)

PANOS is a discontinued computer operating system developed by Acorn Computers in the 1980s and released in 1985. It ran on the 32016 Second Processor for the BBC Micro and on the Acorn Cambridge Workstation, both of which shared essentially the same architecture based on a 32 bit NS32016 CPU, with the Acorn Cambridge Workstation using a BBC Micro based input output processor accessed through an NS32016 firmware kernel called Pandora. PANOS was a rudimentary single user operating system written in Modula-2, providing a simple command line interpreter, a text editor, and access to DFS, ADFS or NFS file systems through the input output processor. It targeted academics and scientists, and bundled compilers for FORTRAN 77, C, Pascal and LISP.
