What is character base operating system and graphical user interface operating system?

A character-based operating system primarily relies on text-based commands and interfaces, allowing users to interact with the system through a command line or terminal. In contrast, a graphical user interface (GUI) operating system provides a visual environment with windows, icons, and menus, enabling users to interact using a mouse and graphical elements. While character-based systems may be more efficient for experienced users, GUI systems are generally more user-friendly and accessible for the average user. Examples of character-based systems include DOS, while Windows and macOS are examples of GUI operating systems.

What made GUI different from the DOS operating system?

DOS is fully command based operating system. we do every job in Dos by typing commands instead by using mouse clicks like todays computers. This is because of Using GUI (Graphic user interface). GUI make computers user friendly As MS DOS is completely CLI (command line interface) based operating system hence it does not incorporate a GUI (graphical user interface) natively. This is the main difference.


Is the user interface a part of the operating system?

This answer depends on how technical your answer needs to be. The user interface ships with the operating system, so the average computer user might consider the user interface to be a part of the system. If you care to get technical, however, the user interface is not part of the operating system.On all versions of Windows since at least 3.1, the graphical user interface is a module that runs atop the kernel, and is not actually part of the operating system. In fact, it can be swapped out for a different user interface, and the operating system will still run.Similarly, you can remove the user interface, and the system will still operate (this is how some servers are configured; not loading a graphical interface can reduce memory and processor usage). Contrast this to a driver; if you remove a driver, the system will not run that hardware, thus, an installed driver becomes part of the operating system.Technically, anything that runs in "ring level 0" on an Intel-based processor is part of the operating system, and everything else is not. If the user interface were in ring level 0, programs would be running with kernel permissions, and could thus take over the system without difficulty, since they would already be "in the kernel."The user interface is not trusted, and so runs outside the kernel to allow the system to be more reliable.

What do you mean GUI?

GUI stands for Graphical User Interface. It is a programming technique that allows the user to visually interpret commanding the program driving the GUI. All versions of Windows are GUIs. Computer games are GUIs. This is opposed to text based user interfaces. DOS (Disk Operating System) was the first operating system for the AT style desktop computer. It presented itself to the user with a ">" prompt on the command line. The user typed in a DOS command and told the computer to execute the command by hitting the "Enter" key. The computer responded to the command with lines of ASCII text on the display. LINUX is a text based operating system. There are several different GUI layers that run on top of a LINUX based operating system.
