MiNT

    (MinT is not TOS - a recursive acronym) A
   freeware, open source operating system for the Atari ST
   range of computers.  MiNT was originally based on a port of
   BSD to Atari ST computers by Eric R. Smith.  MiNT gave the
   Atari access to BSD's many network applications.  A short
   (1992-94) romance between MiNT and Atari Corp., who decided
   to convert the system to the MultiTOS kernel, produced a
   unique TOS/Unix hybrid, which provides simultaneous access to
   both GEM and BSD application libraries.

   Since MiNT is MultiTOS's kernel, it has kept all the features
   described above and, if an AES replacement is installed, it
   can show you a new face of MultiTOS.  Unlike MultiTOS however,
   MiNT is based on a different file system, that is faster and
   more flexible than TOS's.  Furthermore, thanks to the network
   support, MiNT allows an Atari to be an Internet server
   that can still run GEM and TOS applications!  This has won
   MiNT many devotees ("MiNTquisitors"), making it the main
   competitor for ASH's MagiC.

   Unlike Linux, MiNT can run on a Motorola 68000 with no
   FPU.  It needs at least 4 MB of RAM, more to run multiuser
   or to run GEM applications at the same time.

10. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Mint
   (Gr. heduosmon, i.e., "having a sweet smell"), one of the garden
   herbs of which the Pharisees paid tithes (Matt. 23:23; Luke
   11:42). It belongs to the labiate family of plants. The species
   most common in Syria is the Mentha sylvestris, the wild mint,
   which grows much larger than the garden mint (M. sativa). It was
   much used in domestic economy as a condiment, and also as a
   medicine. The paying of tithes of mint was in accordance with
   the Mosiac law (Deut. 14:22), but the error of the Pharisees lay
   in their being more careful about this little matter of the mint
   than about weightier matters.
