nice.  "Frosk is a 32-bit, multitasking os for an x86 architecture. It
is written in NASM and C".

ahh goood.  we will actually be doing the unusual thing of, "ok, so if
you could add whatever instructions *you* wanted to some hardware,
that do a decent job, what would they be?" thing, rather than "oh god
here we go, programming in assembler where we *know* there's nothing
that can be done about how awful it is".

so by doing your own OS, i take it you're not in the slightest bit
fazed working at low-level assembly, then? :)
