Currently, the first place to look for updates to anything:

In the case of the combined developer certificates, it has undergone a few name changes, now called: MKK
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=233932
That zip file includes a file: "WhereAreTheSources" - which you might want to look up to see if the developer's certificate you need is included.

The one attached to the first post is the same version as the one in NiLuJe's snapshots (but its home post has a bit more description).
OK, you have now gone straight over my head, jargon-wise. I'm sorry, I'm not a developer, I am just a user wanting to install this infocom interpreter.

I *did* start looking at the place that is literally titled "Where do I start?" https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=180113 , which got me through the jailbreak, but I am now completely lost with respect with respect to what you seem to be trying to tell me.

I understand that the prerequisite to the KIF install is installing some developer tools, but your description of them is greek to me.

SO, taking a step back, let me see if I comprehend what I need to do.

The source for "ADQ's Developer Kindle Keys" does not include a listing of what "keys" they are, and there's no README. So, I would not have the first idea of where to look to see if "the developer's certificate you need is included."

Can you tell me if there is a file somewhere within "ADQ's Developer Kindle Keys" that I could look at, compare to some file within "MKK," and determine if the certificate you reference is included?
