- * IMPORTANT: If you have used the mfsutil subset, you will have to *
- * remove the mfsconf call from your bootup sequence BEFORE running *
- * INSTALL. (Sorry, but I can't really link a GFA program with the *
- * mint libs :-) *
- * *
- * Alternatively: you can issue a mfsconf command as follows BEFORE *
- * running INSTALL.PRG: *
- * *
- * mfsconf <drive> -s t -l t -d t *

- This file is intended to be a list of the .zoo archives in this directory
- together with a short description of the archives.
-
- All of the patches are designed to be unzoo-ed onto a floppy disk and then
- have INSTALL.PRG run from disk1 of the kit, which will then install them into
- the partition specified.
-
- To unzoo them, copy the zoo file to C:\, open a window on A:, and while holding
- the right button down, double click on Zoo.ttp, typing "x C:\filename.zoo"
- into the parameters box. This will keep A: as the active window, and you will
- find 1 or more .zoo file(s) & a .sys file will appear on the A: directory when
- done. At this point you should run INSTALL.PRG

- Fri Jan 8 14:39:08 WET 1993:
- =============================
-
- Gcc231.zoo:
- gcc 2.3 patchlevel 1, assorted tools, and the gas assembler. The
- latest version (as of this date) of gcc. Has full support for the
- -mbaserel and -mpcrel options, but does not include g++ , both AFAIK.
-
- Incobj25.zoo:
- The patchlevel 25 versions of the header files and libraries (both
- 'b' libraries (sharable text) and normal libraries included. Falcon
- header files included also. These are necessary for versions of MiNT
- >= 0.96, as they fix a serious bug in directory manipulation.
-
- Compress.zoo:
- A 16-bit un*x-like 'compress' program. This was missed out of the
- original kit by mistake.
-
- Man4.zoo:
- The patchlevel 25 versions of the manual pager suite. Needed to work
- with version of MiNT >= 0.96
-
- Sed113.zoo:
- GNU sed vesion 1.1.3. The latest version of GNU sed available. Sed is
- a un*x utility to apply an editor-like operation (eg: search/replace)
- to a file - sed stands for Stream EDitor.

- ============================
-
- disk1.zoo:
- Changes to SETUP and INSTALL to make them work in other than ST high
- resolution. Can't test on TT, but those ought to be able to work in
- ST high mode anyway.
-
- Init1.zoo:
- Bugfixes care of Tesch for the login/write programs. Now no longer
- reports 'can't write entry in utmp' message.
-
- Man4.zoo:
- Allows you to install the manual page for whatis
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Mon Jan 25 15:21:51 WET 1993
- ============================
-
- disk1.zoo:
- changes to INSTALL to make it allow you to select more than one .sys
- file from the disk. Now you "Load Config" and it puts up 2 windows.
- Clicking in one will change the current .sys file, clicking in the
- other will change what files to install.
-
- shlutl1.zoo:
- The latest versions of the GNU fileutils (AFAICT). Specifically I
- think the test.ttp program actually works!
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Sat Feb 13 16:47:36 WET 1993
- ============================
-
- Mfsutl.zoo:
- mfsutl.zoo is something of a strange subset. Here are the GNU utils
- compiled with no TOS-like hashing of filenames into 8+3.
-
- The purpose of this is that 'make' as distributed is incapable of
- finding a Makefile in its own directory. To solve this it is
- necessary to use mfsconf.ttp to change the way files are referenced
- on the minixfs filesystem. Unfortunately, doing this results in the
- cp and rm and mv etc. programs failing ( and in fact deleting in
- some cases ). So, here are a set of programs that will work properly
- under the minixfs. No guarantees if you install them onto a TOS file-
- system, though. This subset should be installed *only* if you use
- minixfs.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Tue Mar 16 16:02:51 WET 1993
- ============================
-
- Doc1.zoo:
- This is the set of manual pages (both pre-formatted and not) from
- Hildo/Eric + all the MiNT docs that come with the original package.
-
- Gcc-as138.zoo:
- This is the GNU Assembler version 1.38 patch 4. The latest to date
- AFAIK.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Mon Mar 22 13:38:44 WET 1993
- ============================
-
- Cat2.zoo:
- An updated version of cat stolen from the bsd sources. Allows operations
- like:
- cat > file
-
- G++233.zoo:
- Actually the cc1+ back end of the gcc compiler. Allows compilation of C++
- programs with the gcc compiler.
- [ Apr 1, 1993 - discovered that this really contains version 2.2.2
- of the program. Still need a 2.3.3 binary... -- hyc]
-
- Gawk.zoo:
- The GNU version of awk. Manual pages are missing - I'll fix this RSN. The
- program installs as 'awk' rather than 'gawk' because few people are going
- to have a version of awk lying around.
-
- Tar1111.zoo:
- Hildo's compilation of GNU tar 1.11.1 - Please read the info page when you
- install this. This program will soon become the distribution method for the
- MDK. Probably a 'must install' subset.
-
- UUutil.zoo:
- The uuencode and uudecode programs. Useful for sending 8-bit data over a
- 7-bit link.
