Ah, magic numbers.  I suspectd that's what you were talking about.  And magic numbers hasn't been a good system for years and years.  And it's totally incompatible with every other OS.  I want cross-compatability with Linux, Windows, Mac, etc.
Well most operating systems that use it also use extensions for cross compatibility, but it would be helpful for files without extensions. But anywho, it's your choice :)
It would be useful if your extension was removed or something.

Fair enough :)
it was just an idea, maybe someone will implement it later or something in their own OS using the KnightKernel

I assume you do not have access to your dev environment due to grounding? D:

That's right, DJ_O.  I'm working on fixing that, though.

I'm going to explode if you don't work on it too. :D

But in all seriousness, I agree with Eeems here.  If you need anything, like help, resources, parental abductions just let us know.

Update
Hi there!  Sorry it's been so long since I've posted an update, but I've spent more time grounded than not in the past few months.  Now to the important stuff:
I've gotten basic KFS support working.  In past builds of KnightKernel, a simple read-only filesystem has been used as a temporary fix.  My current aims with KnightKernel is to get the real KnightOS Filesystem working on it, and in order to do this, I completely scrapped all existing filesystem related code and started fresh.  This means that I disabled multithreading and a lot of other features (including actually booting without crashing) that relied on reading from the filesystem.  Today, I re-enabled those features as basic support for reading from a KFS compliant filesystem has been added.
In addition to adding this support, RAM has been set aside for a file stream table, and I've also written several custom build tools for the kernel, as well as laid out the final structure of KnightOS itself.  I've written a tool that will take a ROM file and copy a directory on your hard drive to root on the ROM file, and one that will take the internal include file and generate an external include file based on it.  Next on my to-do list is to flesh out file reading a bit more, and add write support.  After that, I believe the kernel will be complete, and work on the OS itself may begin.

So, quick question: When it reports itself as a flash drive, what format will it say it is to the PC involved? KFS isn't a PC Filesystem, right?

Also, awesome avatar :P
