I have tried to get tinytic to work properly, and I really wish I could,
but there seems to be two problems with it. First, if the tic isn't in uppercase then it won't see it and second, if the tic is in uppercase then
it will say that it can't find the tinytic cfg.

Anyone know if tinytic is still being supported?

I don't know if anyone else is doing anything with it but it has been added to the FTN Apps project at SourceForge [1] and I've been planning to
work on packaging it for Debian/Ubuntu...

You might want to test that before you put all the work in. Seems that it worked fine under the 2.4 kernel, but it doesn't parse paths properly in 2.6, so essentially it's broke.

I eneded up running the dos version in dosemu and it works great.

I'll admit that I haven't looked at the code or the operation of it as
yet but I'll be doing that as part of the packaging effort in any case;
and I can contact the author about things I run across in the code...
And, of course, the reason I put it in the FTN Apps project was to be sure
to make it available so that others can work on it...<g>

Always an option, of course, but I'd prefer to run it as a native
executable if possible...

I've tried to contact the author to no avail. I'd be more than glad to fix the problem in the code if I had it.

I have been able to get a start on that, with what I'm working on
currently available in the SVN repository at [2]. I've bumped the version number & was able to build and install a debian package with no errors.
I'll be testing it on a Synchronet system I'm running.

I'd be more than glad to fix the problem in the code if I had it.

I was able to locate the most recent archive that the author
created (Sean Dennis, 1:18/200, has it on his system.): tt00531s.zip. I
don't have online here yet but it is in the downloads [3] section at the SourceForge project [1]. I'd be most interested in anything you find.

Hi Frank!

In case you had not already heard: The author commited an update to the TinyTIC repository for a version v0.6.1 (rev. 60, viewable at [1]), which is going to be undergoing some testing before making a release out of it...

Is this ready for distribution now? I see v0.6.1 at sourceforge..I'd like to get it out when ready also via the Utillnx FDN since previous tinytic versions went through the FileGate..

Take care,

Not that I'm aware of; I'll be contacting him about results of the
testing. (I haven't had a chance to do any testing of it myself.)
If it's still beting tested, I could ask him what he thinks about
distributing the current code as a beta release or something like that...

I see v0.6.1 at sourceforge..

Yes, but just in the SVN repository, so far...

I also think it should go out that way.

He still needs the results of how that runs; if anyone else has taken a look at it, please comment...

Are you going to hatch it out? (I'm not connected that way to the

Yes, I'll hatch it :) Had a few things to take care of the last few days.. should get it out tonight or tomorrow. I'll check out the distro information to see what fdn it fits best in. I'm leaning toward one of the PDN areas right
now since I know there's source code included.

Yes, you're right of course. Wasn't thinking that day <grin>.. too much going on here, I think. Well, Mom is back home in Florida now so I can think a little better now <grin>

I'm leaning toward one of

Right, I noticed that. And Utillnx is just fine for that. Thanks for the heads up <grin>
