kylux - Kyle's Unix
    A simple unix-like operating system, developed mainly as a learning
    experience in hopes that it will one day spawn the development of a
    parallel operating system.

Begin date: Dec 2009
Primary Author: Kyle Racette
Credits: OSDev, Bona Fide, James Malloy for his excellent os development
    tutorials and code, Pintos for being easy to work with and understand

DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
=======================================

Kylux is organized into several directories to make code easier to manage
and understand.  In the parent directory, one will find a src/ and 
include/ directories.  They are direct mirrors of one another, with the
sole difference being that include/ contains .h files, while src/ 
contains .c and .S files.  In most cases, for every .c file, there will 
be a corresponding .h file.  Not every .h file will have a corresponding
.c file, but most will.  Most assembly files (denoted with a .S 
extension) will not have a corresponding .h file.  

Within the src/ or include/ directories, one will find several other
directories to organize different types of files.  These directories and
their purpose are listed below:

arch/ - contains architecture-specific functions
arch/XXX - contains functions specific to architecture XXX.
lib/ - general purpose libraries and other shared files.  These functions
    are not necessarily central to the kernel, but they are useful for
    general os-related operations.
lib/kernel/ - kernel-specific libraries.  Some files in here will include
    functions for operating on different data structures.  Other files
    will provide functions for printing and formatting strings, 
    dynamically allocating memory, and other common tasks.
lib/user/ - libraries that will be made available to user-level programs.
    Some files in lib/ may provide backend functionality for kernel and
    user level libraries, such as printf and malloc.
kernel/ - Other functions that are more specific to kylux but
    architecture-independant.  These may include interrupt handlers, 
    paging code, and scheduling code.
test/ - Test files for testing various kernel functionality.
util/ - Miscellaneous utilities that make development or testing more
    pleasant.
misc/ - Things that don't belong in any other category.

COMPILING
=======================================

Kylux has a custom Makefile
