Obviously there were technical difficulties on Christmas...

Not to mention the fact that JBirk was on vacation...give the guy a break, we all need one from time to time.

Jbirk, i forgive you (if it is only me and AlienCC that do, then so be it)

why cant you guys just wait?!?! do you want a buggy crappy version that will discourage you from wanting the real perfect version when it comes out?

hmm, just my 2¢

HEY! I edited that...
it's not supposed to have the code(an accidental button press) and it should include the fact that I figured it was due to server outages.

anyway, hope to see nimbus soon(by january 15th)...and no convenient server outages! Very Happy

The 30th

Thanks for giving me a break; my vacation was still too short.

Looks like there'll have to be a pucrunch decompressor added to support CrunchyOS.

We are not actually interested in supporting CrunchyOS; however, we are interested in the compression.

Essentially, we would settle for compression/decompression support. We would simply place an icon to show wheather or not the program is crushed.

We would support writeback.

if addon modules were supported(like in ion)someone could give it crunchy support

What is "crunchyOS"?

A shell by DWEdit that gets relatively dramatic compression of programs. There's an article in the Assembly forum.

NETWizz · Posted: 08 Jan 2004 10:09:00 pm Post subject:

I got to chekc that article out. Perhaps Dwedit would like to join Nimbus by bringing us his support for compression.

Essentially, I would like NimbusOS to be able to compress and decompress programs on the fly.

I would add an asm header to all programs with the ret instruction, so TIOS won't try to make them run in their compressed state. Under that, I would like some sort of crunced header, so NimbusOS can know the program is crunched or not crunched.

Then the rest of the data should be compressed.

I would uncrunch on the fly too (like crunchyos).
