Kazuki: Puts GCOS in the Homebrew_Software category.

GCOS stands for "GameCube Operating System" and was conceived in 2004 by emu_kidid and ShadowSwan.

== Background ==

It started off by taking the publicly released IPL Replacement code that tmbinc had made and merged together the (at the time) recently reversed [[ViperGC]] drive patching methods found in the Cobra BIOS called 'Anaconda04'. Initial versions of GCOS started out with just a text UI, but eventually the project gained approximately 15 contributors across its life, making it a well known piece of software for the GameCube. The successor to GCOS is Swiss, which was re-written from scratch, but borrows some small bits of code from GCOS.

After the Wii was released, the GCOS source base was used as a way of creating a menu for multi-game compilation discs for Wii. A GUI program for Windows was also created for this purpose which was known as 'MultiGame ISO Creator', ending at v4.0.4F+.
