1Here it is... the UnZip 5.1 port for the Atari ST/TT/Falcon! 2 3This took me longer than I expected thanks to a difference between the 4MiNT library and most UNIX libraries... symlinks are 0x16000 5instead of 0xa000... I'm told this isn't even defined in POSIX, so I 6can't really complain. At least we've got a filesystem that can use 7symlinks! 8 9This port requires GNU C and allows you to build an unzip/zipinfo/funzip 10that supports long filenames (on appropriate filesystems, thanks to the 11MiNT library), as well as symlinks. It also does "proper" (ie, DOS-style) 12translation of text-file end-of-line characters. The programs also build 13as shared-text binaries, so you can start unzipping several files at once 14in the background and only a small part of unzip will be duplicated in 15memory. 16 17I build unzip with the MiNT library, GNU C 2.5.8 (2.5.7 and lower have a 18rather sever problem in the optimiser that affects 68000 code only; it 19adds 68020-only instructions to the 68000 code). Oh, and I tested it 20extensively under MiNT's minix filesystem as well as the bogus DOS 21filesystem that "normal" Atari partitions have. 22 23The Makefile won't need any editing if you want to built unzip et al. on 24a minix filesystem; if you want to install it on a DOS filesystem, use 25"cp" instead of "ln" for zipinfo. [Or, to save disk space, make a script/ 26command-file which invokes "unzip -Z ...". --CN] This is such a good 27idea that I'm annoyed that Greg thought of it and I didn't... ;-) If 28you're using a shell worth your while, you can alias zipinfo to 29'unzip -Z' and then forget all about this paragraph. 30 31If you want to compile this using Turbo C (aka Pure C in North America) 32you're on your own... That's ok, I'll make a nice binary version of 33unzip available as soon as the official 5.1 version is released (give or 34take a few days). 35 36Enjoy! Cave Newt should be given kudos for keeping this monster easy to 37port... ;-) [Hah! But thanks anyway. :-) --CN] 38 39PLEASE email me to tell me if you've uploaded the source or binary 40versions of Unzip 5.x to any BBS systems or commercial online systems so 41we can update the WHERE file! 42 43-Chris Herborth- 44
