- Oh, I thought the MiNT libs wasn't really using UNIXMODE anymore. Seeing the
- avaiable tty modes (crmod etc.), I simply assumed that the tty system was
- completely in charge (I should off course have mentioned that I use kernel 1.08
- and libs 34, not that it seem to matter).
-
- I just now discovered that tty raw mode seems to do something similar, but then
- sh breaks into small pieces, since this turns *all* character interpretation
- off, and sh being what it is, just wont notice.
-
- So it seems like I have to set the UNIXMODE variable, though I do NOT want to
- include /. The kernel and minixfs should take care of filename translation.

-
- I know, I just don't care about it, as I primarily uses unix stuff such as
- emacs and gcc and tcsh.
-
- But thanks for the clarification.
