- Here is the source code for the current version of MiNT. There are
- lots of changes, of course, but no docs. Sorry. The "changes" file
- does provide a useful list of things that have changed since previous
- versions of MiNT.
-
- Please read the notice in "copying" carefully. This code is completely
- unsupported; you use it at your own risk. Because it is unsupported
- (and undocumented) we are distributing it in source code only form.
- Users who wish a binary version of MiNT should purchase MultiTOS.
- Anyone who wants to use this version of MiNT should be fully aware
- of the risks involved in using unsupported software, and should
- also be comfortable enough with C and the process of compiling that
- they can fix bugs themselves. Please respect the conditions in "copying"
- (in particular please do not redistribute binary versions of this
- program). Source code to future versions of MiNT will not be made
- available if these conditions are violated.
-
- This version of MiNT is compiled to use memory protection by
- default. If you want to use the version of the AES from the ROM,
- you'll have to (a) turn off the -DMULTITOS flag in the makefile,
- and (b) after compiling rename "mint.prg" to "mintnp.prg". If
- MiNT notices that it is called "mintnp.prg", it will come up
- with memory protection disabled (this is necessary because the ROM
- AES violates memory protection in several ways). You can also
- disable memory protection by setting the "no_mem_prot" variable
- in memprot.c and recompiling.
