[comp.sys.atari.st.tech] Micro RTX questions

rlcollins@miavx1.acs.muohio.edu (Ryan 'Gozar' Collins) (09/24/90)

I would like to get Micro RTX up and running, but I have no idea how to do it.
If somebody could point me in the right direction, I would really be
appreciative.

I got the micrortx.arc file off of atari.archive, but I'm stuck from there.

(1) Unarc micrortx.arc. Read the docs. Put the executable program in an AUTO
    folder.
(2) Get (or write) a multitasking shell that will work with MicroRTX.
(3) Pay your shareware fees if you like the result.

An alternative course of action, not involving MicroRTX:
(1) Get mint06b.zoo from atari.archive or comp.binaries.atari.st. Unzoo it.
    Read the docs. Run mint.prg (or put it in an AUTO folder).
(2) Use the provided shell and utilities. Write better ones if you want.
(3) Don't worry about shareware. It's free. (Of course, if you want to
    send a donation it's not going to be refused!)
