Human68k is an operating system for Sharp Corporation's personal workstation X68000. It's developed by SHARP and Hudson Soft.

[edit] Appearance and usage

Generally, it looks like Microsoft's MS-DOS, but doesn't have IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS. This is because Human68K doesn't care about porting to other hardware platform at all. Hardware-dependent things are done by X68000's IOCS.

The file extension of executable programs is ".X". The command line shell can be started by executing COMMAND.X. Lately, COMMAND.R was developed as a free software, and it was relocatable.
