-- Mar 4, 1997 This is a hack of tintin++ v1.5 pl6 - I encountered some serious problems with tintin when i upgraded my Linux libc frrom 5.0.9 to 5.3.x - Seeing as almost no development is being done by the tintin++ team (and the fact that i haven't been able to get on thier FTP site for 6 months, and they told me they didn't have a Linux machine to develop on to verify my bug reports) I took it upon myself to hack tinitn 'til it worked... I've fixed the #ungag/unsub/unalias * crashbug and the bugs with multiple sessions. It still coredumps sometimes when you #end your session for some unexplicable reason, but I've fixed the most serious bugs, and I'm happy enough with it to never touch the code again. Install it like usual... I'm not sure if you need to do that "configure" or not. Seeing as I've never really coded at all with autoconfig I basically ignored it when i hacked the code. And, I don't think "make depend" works . . . at least it never has for me. So, just tar -xzvf .tgz and "make" from the source directory. And hopefully you'll have a usable tintin.. Good Luck, Anil Mahajan/ RoadKill@StrangeMUD -- Oct 28, 1997 this is just the src/ directory of tintin... it works on Linux, dunno if it works anywhere else... I played with the tintin source some more. Only 3 asthetic changes this time... 1) Control-C doesn't quit out of tintin anymore... it acts like Control-C in a shell... clears your current line and puts you on a newline. 2) the UP arrow ("\eA") is trapped it behaves like HISTORY_UP (control P did this before... still does it now, too). 3) the DOWN arrow ("\eB") is trapped and behaves like HISTORY_DOWN (control N did this before, and still does). as with the old hack it also has a lot of linked-list bugs and a few session bugs fixed that occur with tintin++ in Linux. Unlike the last one i had help coding this one (trapping that Control-C was harder than it should have been), help was from my fellow IMP on FucMUD, Trey Morita. - Anil Mahajan RoadKill@FucMUD cthulhu.proxicom.com 4000
