- s>1. I'd like to start up GEM from MiNT first off, so I can choose between
- s> TOSWIN
- s> and MW2, or use Uniterm. I achieve this by not having an INIT.PRG, since
- s> GEM.PRG is no longer included in MiNT 0.95. Should I be using the old
- s> GEM.PRG instead? If I run it, do my environmental variables get stomped
- s> on by GEM, or will they be accessible by later shells?
- You won't need GEM.PRG any more. If you have no INIT in MINT.CNF, MiNT will
- start GEM. Your environment variables will be accessible by later shells.
-
- s> In any case, after MiNT boots GEM, I start MW2 using KSH.TOS -- and it
- s> doesn't recognize that it is a login shell -- so I have no environment.
- s> I
- s> must then manually load PROFILE.KSH and KSHRC.KSH. Is there a better way
- s> to set this up? Having to manually load these for each new shell is a
- s> pain!
- Just put something like
- setenv ENV c:\mint\kshrc.ksh
- in your MINT.CNF. KSH will load this file every time you launch it.
-
- s>3. Where in the GNU archives on atari.archive is the startup module crt0? I
- s> have the GNU libraries and GCC binaries, but didn't get this piece.
- You need the sources for the GNU Binaries; there you will find crt0.
-
- s>4. I'm assuming that I can use these programs without going to a MINIX file-
- s> system. Is this still true?
- Yes!
