TinyMUSH/Mac Update Bulletin #6


Hello, everyone!

This is the sixth and last TinyMUSH/Mac update bulletin, sent to those who have sent me mail regarding TinyMUSH/Mac. There is no mailbot involved. If you don't want to receive the bulletins, do nothing, because this is the last one. If you do want to stay informed on the developments of TinyMUSH/Mac, then keep reading...

Bulletin #5 came more than ten months after #4. This one, #6, is less than three months later, a clear improvement. Now we've done you one better: The TinyMUSH/Mac mailing list is online -- visit <http://lyris1.telelists.com/htbin/lyris.pl?enter=tinymushmac&text_mode=0> to subscribe. The list address itself is <tinymushmac@telelists.com>.

No one will be automatically subscribed to the list -- this is strictly opt-in. There will be no more massmail bulletins.

Thanks to Elizabeth Glenn for volunteering to host the list.

Progress

There are no updates since #5, but that doesn't mean no progress has occurred. I've switched from Metrowerks CodeWarrior to Apple's MPW, an ambitious and difficult step, but one well-worth it. I'm still using Metrowerks compilers, but instead of Codewarrior's project manager (aka "IDE"), I'm using the MPW Shell, which takes the 'toolkit approach', a la Unix, except not as well designed or implemented. Oh well. At the least, there is the opportunity to reinvent the pieces I don't like, of which I intend to take considerable advantage.

What this means to you as a user is very little, directly, though what's good for the developers is good for you. What it means for developers is that co-development will be easier, in ways (aside from making source archives more portable) that I won't discuss here -- we have a mailing list for that!
