    Yep, that's the one - wouldn't work without a network card and the network was token ring... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain/OS#AEGIS [wikipedia.org]

    but the actual commands themselves were designed to be easier to remember and use than their sometimes cryptic Unix equivalents

    I call complete marketing BS on that line... they were renamed, equally if not more cryptic than their Unix equivalents, and no easier to remember - especially if you were simultaneously operating in MS-DOS, VAX and Unix elsewhere. The easiest to use aspect of the AEGIS commands was that, in practice, they worked almost identically to their Unix equivalents.
