Needs more info TBH… Compare it with this, this or this.

Plus read that book, showstopper! Get more info, and get more in depth. Screen shots are so 1990’s, people demand content!

There was actually! I found mention of it, but no source/binaries. When I saw the mention that is when I went through the motion of making it self hosting so I could re-build but sadly I lost my notes on the name… there were two releases then it up and disappeared.

I suppose the thing to do is hook Jet since it’s the MacOS app and then setup the calls to MiNT. and find some low key tcpip app.

Oh yeah it was called:
macmint-tcp-pl00.tar.gz

And it was originally here:
ftp://rpelkey.bates.edu/pub/macmint/tcp/macmint-tcp-pl00.tar.gz is not available

It’s the Hoshi MacMiNT from 1999… so it’s lacking the MPW headers, and libraries … aka not self-hosting you can’t just compilie jet/mint/rsx, which I added in the bits for that.

And it works fine with basilisk ii. What’s wrong?

I highly doubt it. MiNT has it’s own GCC, and MacMiNT is dependent on MacOS. I guess the real question would be how much of MacMiNT toolbox calls could carbon handle? And… would it be worth it?
