| Windows 95 and higher |
| An installer is available for download to install WinTin, which exists of the PuTTY terminal and the TinTin++ binary. WinTin doesn't have shell capabilities, but otherwise it is an excellent TinTin++ port that works on Windows 95, 98, XP, and Vista. |
| WinTin is not to be confused with the less retro (or what some would call more graphical) wintin.net mud client. For people who want an upgrade from Wintin95 the WinTin port is an excellent alternative supporting most of the same features, except for some Wintin95 specific commands, as well as a lot of functionality that has been added to TinTin++ and hence is available in the WinTin port as well. |
| In order to run WinTin or TinTin++ in a linux environment on Windows you need the Cygwin emulator which consists of two parts: |
|
| The Cygwin DLL works with all non-beta, non 'release candidate', ix86 32 bit versions of Windows since Windows 95, with the exception of Windows CE. |
| The size of Cygwin depends on how many packages you install, but averages around 200 megabytes while WinTin is only 2 MB. If this appeals to you, follow the instructions below to install Cygwin. |
