To elaborate on the text editor and spreadsheet front from another thread, FreeDOS ships with a ton of editors. I don’t believe it comes with any spreadsheets, however. For a plain TUI desktop environment, PsychDOS offers a simple interface with mouse support, plus a host of useful applications (look at a screenshot of the desktop here; it absolutely is distraction-free). There might be mind map software for MS-DOS that will run on FreeDOS, but I don’t know of any.
wouldn’t using tty with tmux and a few other apps within it be less visually jolting? I love color and design, but must admit my terminal calms me a bit.
Well, FreeDOS is text based, so it should offer an experience similar to any other terminal. The 16-bit colors certainly aren’t as nice though, so I see your point.
