Re: [MiNT] UNIXMODE defaults



If you don't like the default UNIXMODE value, what's the problem to change it in mint.cnf?

Probably no problem. But it there is a config file to write for a basic MiNT usage, people will think it is complicated.

Actually that's why the kernel sets UNIXMODE. I remember that we had "bug reports" from people experiencing problems of MiNT's "bad" (= unexpected) behaviour (in fact, of course, not MiNT's but mintlib's) only because they forgot/neglected to set the UNIXMODE.

If you remove the default setting, you'll probably fall in this trap again.
