Stull no arguement, just not the question at hand. DOS like CP/M
can have any number of user interfaces, size for the moment is
unimportant
as it GUI vs Command line.

You'd like the version I did for laughs that looked a lot like RSTS
running
the BASIC interface rather than DCL. Yes, I mean the user enviornment is
inside basic and the command line would be BASIC. I used LLL BASIC
to do it as its available as source and all. So what if CCP {or ZCPR}
is nominally 2k, I changed the load point in the BIOS and allowed 8k for
that.

Is the user interface different? Yes. Is it CP/M, still? Yes.
