MiNT is Not TOS: A Multitasking Operating System Extension for the Atari ST

========================================================================

If a process deletes a file on a TOS filesystem that another process
is using, serious problems (corrupted data and/or a system crash) will
result!!

After leaving MiNT, the current directory/drive may no longer be the
same as they were when entering MiNT (GEMDOS apparently thinks that there
has been a media change; I don't know why the drive gets messed up,
though). Solution: never leave MiNT :-).

The O_NDELAY, O_APPEND, etc. flags aren't implemented yet.

Processes are restricted to having 64 memory regions at a time; once
these are allocated, further Malloc or Pexec calls will fail until an
Mfree is done. This is better than the 20 Malloc bug of TOS 1.0 and 1.2,
but TOS 1.4 has no restriction on Mallocs. MiNT shouldn't, either.

The wildcard matching used by pseudo-drives is a real kludge, and is neither
TOS nor Unix compatible.

Terminals connected to the RS232 or MIDI ports don't act like the console
terminal; special characters (e.g. ^C or ^Z) are not interpreted.
