It would be interesting to see a command interpreter like freecom/command.com with some basic GUI elements added to it. A menu bar with mouse support, clock, scroll bar perhaps... Does something like this exist?
I saw something similar on an Atari 800XL with a variant of SpartaDOS. At the time I thought it was not very useful though since those Ataris didn't even come with a real-time-clock or mouse (and screen updates were slow enough without adding extra stuff).
