Can somebody tell me were to find or were to obtain a version of XINU ? I read the book from Comer about XINU and saw the name XINU appear in Issue 15 of this Digest. Thanks in advance.. --Bert

Does anyone know if XINU (not to be confused with MINIX) has been ported to
the Atari ST?
XINU, unlike MINIX, uses your system's existing tools (compilers, TOS) to
develop programs and applications that are saved in one executable image
along with the XINU OS itself. I know that it is not as flexible and
powerful as MINIX, but I think it would be interesting to tinker around
with. That is, if it has been ported....
You should be able to use a compiler such as Megamax to develop XINU
applications (I would think...).
