Digital Research DOS, of my memory is right

Correct, yes (I meant the 'D' evenwicht said they recalled it starting with if that wasn't clear, indeed for Digital Research, in fact I had to look up DR-DOS to remember the name ViewMAX).

O, wow, ViewMaxx... I had completely forgotten that.

Sure would like to get a collection of this stuff and run in a VM just for fun.

HP had an internal system just to make a simple GUI in DOS, forget what it was called. Just gave you buttons for a dozen programs.
