[Oberon] Looking for the latest MacOberon files (without running an installer), 3rd posting attempt

[Hans Klaver]

Hi Rochus,

Looking into my old Apple PowerBook G4 I found a working installation of ETH Oberon (2.4.3) for Mac OS X, running within the X11 environment of Mac OS X. I guess it also uses slim binaries.

This version of MacOberon was maintained by Günther Feldman at Uni-Bremen.

If you are interested I could provide you with a .tar.gz archive of all the files.

Regards,

Hans Klaver
