Default software[edit]
The default software selection contains several well-known applications like Firefox and GIMP. Here is a list of the default software:
- Mozilla Firefox, the default web browser
- OpenOffice.org, the default office program
- Pidgin, the default IM client
- Banshee, the default music player

It is believed that moonOS is a fork of Linux Mint. moonOS has a similar user interface as Mint, and moonOS' IRC client opens the Mint help channel when launched.
MoonOS 4 "Neak"[edit]
With the release of Neak, the moonOS team uses the GoboHide tool from GoboLinux[1] to compile a Linux kernel that uses a file hierarchy exclusive to moonOS. The new file system is designed to be easy and clutter-free. This release also brought various changes, including: updated kernel (a 200 line patch), Synapse for easy application/file searching, the switch to GNOME (from Enlightenment), and the new AppShell framework. The AppShell framework is a newly created way of installing applications in Linux in a way similar to OS X. Under this system, applications can be installed on the system by dragging the corresponding .appshell file into the AppFiles folder.
