[comp.os.minix] ICD Host Adaptor/Atari ST RTC

As a recent purchaser of the ST Minix package, I was dismayed to find that
the distribution package did not contain a real-time clock reader for
clock devices present on the various host adaptors for the Atari ST.
Since I don't own a Mega-ST, it seemed I was SOL.  Then I found the cum-
official 1.5.0 upgrade kit which contained BMS, Weide and Supra clock programs,
but still nothing for an ICD Host Adaptor.  I haven't been able to locate
any such program in the various archives available locally, either.
I'm prepared to write an rtc program for the ICD Host Adaptor on the Atari
ST computers, but before I do, I'd like to check a bit wider of an area to
see if one might already exist (I hope you hate multiple standards and un-
necessary code dupliaction as much as I do?).

                                           Sincerely,
                                                        Richard S. Stone
