SPINIX(1)                          Spinix OS                          SPINIX(1)

NAME
        spinix - spinix operating system

DESCRIPTION
        Spinix is a linux-like operating system that runs on a Parallax
        Propeller processor interfaced to an SD card.  It consists of a boot
        program, shell and many applications.

        The boot program resides in the Propeller boot EEPROM.  When run for
        the first time, the boot program prompts the user for the I/O pins used
        to interface to the SD card.  The boot program then starts up the shell
        program.

        Spinix maintains a rendevous area of memory at the top of memory.  The
        rendevous area contains mail boxes that are used to talk to the
        console and SD driver.

        The shell provides a user interface that accepts commands from the
        user, and executes programs that are store on the SD card.

SEE ALSO
        For more information see the man pages on the boot program and the
        shell.
