Sviger (also known as Свигер in Russian, and FrydeOS in Norwegian) is an operating system developed in Russia (formerly in the Soviet Union) by Sviger Team since 1981.
== History ==
=== Pre-Sviger (1969-1978) ===
Filya Computing (Филя Вычислительная) was founded in 1969 as a computing development team; then it became a state-owned company.
The main project of Filya Computing was making a "small cheap computer being both a small educational computer and a glass teletype terminal".
Their flagship minicomputer was the Filya ZpectraVostok-MESVM/1, released in 1976. It was one of the first Soviet computers to use 8-inch floppy discs, despite it had punched tape support too.
=== Sviger 1.0 development (1978-1981) ===
The Sviger development likely began in mid/late(?)-1978, as an attempt to make a disc operating system for Soviet minicomputers at the time (such as the Electronika 60, the Filya ZpectraVostok-MESVM/1 (fictional), etc) mostly intended for educational and domestic use.
Sviger Team was founded in 1980, trying to make a deal with Filya Computing; this made the Sviger floppy disc to be included in the Filya-MK/1 (Филя-МК/1), which was released in 1981.
== Trivia ==
* Originally the font for BK versions was ripped by himself from Russian Wikipedia screenshots and from an emulator. When FeelExotic ripped the Electronika BK font, he started using it for his Sviger, but with minor modifications to the kerning and line spacing to make it accurate with the original BK font.
* The 1985-199? logo is insipred by HoloCraft's 1985-1996/2000 Sviger logo, which is Spyonclear logo-styled.
* It's versions and lore are mostly inspired by HoloCraft's and FeelExotic's
