Macintosh Mixmaster port... Who's doing it?
Does anyone have any idea who might be attempting a Macintosh Mixmaster port? I and some other people were eyeing the idea. If you know who might be doing this port I would appreciate hearing from them. Thanks. myers

Several individuals have offered to port Mixmaster. To the best of my knowledge, none are still working on it. As the author and a Mac user I would be happy to answer questions, and test the system. I have no Mac programing experience though. -Lance ---------------------------------------------------------- Lance Cottrell loki@obscura.com PGP 2.6 key available by finger or server.

You can also get AUX and MachTen to run Linux on your Mac hardware. Both are production systems, unlike the DR1 release of MkLinux. MachTen (www.tenon.com) has the clear advantage for most people of being able to run Mac & Unix apps at the same time. However, there is a real need for things like Mixmaster/DOS, the WinSock remailer, and other tools that allow the average home user to set up a remailer without taking the several days or more to install a new OS on their system. A real Mac port of Mixmaster, that integrated with Claris EMailer and Eudora would be a huge boon to the millions of Mac users out there. I have no doubt that Vinnie's mac crypto conference talked a lot about this sort of thing. Adam -- "It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once." -Hume

There is a Dos version available. It is being used by Private Idaho for its Mixmaster Support. I am looking into doing an OS/2 port of Mixmaster to be used by my OS/2 front End. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- William H.
