== What is Tintin++? ==

TinTin++ (from now on called tt) is a mud client, dating back over 20 years, making it one of the oldest mud clients around.

Website: http://tintin.sourceforge.net/

=== History? ===

Started as 700 lines of c code, posted on Usenet by Peter Unold on April 1, 1992.

=== Why TinTin++? ===

Cross platform, runs on Windows, Mac OSX, Gnu/Linux, BSD, Soloris.

== Installing ==

=== Windows ===
It's suggested on vista and above that you install and use it under cygwin. Get cygwin from [https://cygwin.com/index.html here]. For those on Vista and lower download the WinTin++ installer from [http://tintin.sourceforge.net/download.php here].

=== Mac OSX ===

=== Gnu/Linux(s) ===
==== Arch Linux ====
tt can be found in the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tintin/ aur].

Download the snapshot, extract it, run makepkg where you extracted it.
<nowiki>
curl -O https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/tintin.tar.gz
tar xzf tintin.tar.gz
cd tintin
makepkg -sri
</nowiki>

makepkg -sri should grab any dependencies, compile and install tt.
=== BSD(s) ===

Both freebsd and openbsd have it in ports.

=== Solaris ===

		+	You'll want to make your tt config file. If you're using WinTin++ it uses main.tin by default. You should make this file in the root directory of the WinTin++ install (where you installed it).
		+
		+	On windows DO NOT edit the config with notepad or wordpad, use notepad++. There's been issues with these editors causing format issues, making the config file not read properly. You can get notepad++ [https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ here].
		+
		+	If you are using tt in cygwin or Linux etc. You can make the config file anywhere, just make sure the alias for tt points to it. For bash users (default for cygwin and most linux distros) you would add this alias to the .bashrc file for example.
		+
		+	<nowiki>
		+	alias tt="tintin ~/.tintin/run.tin"
		+	</nowiki>
		+
		+	"tt" is what you would type to run tt. The "~/.tintin/run.tin" is the location and name of the config file. So you are running tintin pointed at that config file.
