Re: [MiNT] m68000 version of Zorro's LDG codec

Hi Miro,

I'm happy to see that you remain an active Atarian :)
And thank you for having fixed the bug with the LDG under MiNT MP.

Really? This is a great step forward!

In theory, there are many advantages to providing callback to client's 
MiNTlib:

1) You can safely use the mintlib's functions into the LDG.
2) The context should be the same, so you can share a memory allocation 
without using MEM.LDG or others "tricks" like the SHM.
3) The binaries are a lot smaller.

In zView Beta 8, do you use the new LDG format? ( because in the 
changelog, you say that men.ldg is no longer needed).


Ciao,
