The URL is http://wauug.erols.com/pub/knaff/mtools/ For those who have looked at mtools2.0.7, the code appears to be significantly cleaner than the previous versions. Especially, one program does all depending on argv[0], whereas current mtools have 10-15 different executables. Under FreeBSD it compiles almost correctly (one sys_errlist[] declaration must be fixed), although is it missing the machine-dependant part which declares devices and initializes them. I believe both things can be folded in from 2.0.7 -- I might have some time to look at this late next week.
