Fourth Edition (current distribution)
The Fourth Edition is available as Free Software under a mixture of
Free Software licences (GPL, LGPL, Lucent Public or MIT-template, depending
on the component).
A more conventional
Commercial Licence is also available
if the Free Software scheme does not suit.
All distributions include the full source for hosted and native environments,
including cross-compilation tools (summary of distribution contents).
Our own development tree is in Fossil/Venti on Plan 9
but periodically we publish snapshots of it, in several forms.
The following downloads are available for Inferno Fourth Edition:
-
A copy of the source tree (excluding some derived executables and binaries, and prohibited fonts)
is in project inferno-os
using the Mercurial version control system on Google Code.
The most recent revision always contains the latest published distribution tree.
Use an hg clone to initialise your own repository (as described on the inferno-os source code page on Googlecode),
and then subsequent hg pull and hg update to keep it up to date.
-
A snapshot of the complete source tree (including executables such as mk for its reconstruction)
as a Mercurial repository but including the non-free fonts
is available from this Vita Nuova site as a gzip'd tar file inferno-20090630.tgz.
Note that the contents of the archive is rooted at inferno.
You will need to change mkconfig and set your path or PATH to the right bin directory
before you can remake the tree using mk.
You should be able to use subsequent hg pull and hg update commands
to keep it up to date from the inferno-os Googlecode repository.
The Google Code site tracks
our development tree more closely than snapshots, allowing incremental updates.
-
You can also fetch a ready-made Mercurial repository in .tgz form from the inferno-os download page.
Unlike the one above, this repository does not include the Lucida fonts.
The download is still useful when you've already got the fonts, and the bandwidth to Googlecode is better (or our site is down).

List of changes
Older material
We provide the following as snapshots from history, not in any usable state.
As time allows us to sort through older trees, we might be able to go further back.
