Archive-name: os/minix/minix-cdiffs/1991-06-07 Archive-directory: ftp.cs.vu.nl:minix/cdiffs/ [130.37.24.6] Original-posting-by: ast@cs.vu.nl (Andy Tanenbaum) Original-subject: MINIX 1.6.16 now available by FTP Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) I have put the cdiffs to go from 1.5 to 1.6.16 on ftp.cs.vu.nl in minix/cdiffs. You can ftp them. Needless to say, MINIX itself is not FTPable, just the cdiffs from 1.5 to 1.6.16. Glen reports that the beta list has grown so large as to make it unwieldy. I think what I will do is wait for people who FTP the cdiffs to post their comments to the net, and then maybe post the whole FTP directory to the net myself if that seems reasonable. One thing you must watch out for, and I apologize in advance, is that I am now running the ACK ANSI C compiler, not the old one. This means that the stuff has not been tested with the old compiler. In general, this is not a problem, since ANSI C is stricter than K&R C. However, I also use the ANSI C libraries. This means that you must not use a couple of my headers unless you are using some flavor of ANSI compiler, and even then. Some hints: - use the old ctype.h and stdio.h. - change the definition of NULL in stdio.h to ((void *)0) - added declaration of popen to stdio.h Please post comments to the net, and good luck.
