The current version, posted in comp.binaries.atari.st recently, is 2.17.
I was meticulous in writing Turtle to do absolutely everything with
standard, supported system calls. I'm rather discouraged to hear of
problems on the ST4. I'll try to locate one here for testing. If there is
a problem with executing in 4 MB, I'll create a fix for it. I have heard
of no problems with local people running on 2 MB Mega systems, though.
