Update: contacted web support, and they confirmed they took down the server hosting the program on Oct 1. Could the link get updated to another mirror?

My university has a deadline tomorrow for an assignment which requires mars. So the download link probably got hugged to death.

The link to the jar file appears to be inaccessible for me (it takes too long to respond and makes no progress), could it be updated to another working link if the link continues to be down?

Does anyone else get 100% CPU usage spikes whenever opening an assembly file?

Note for future users: Adding -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true to mars-mips.sh will fix janky font rendering.

For some reason the PKGBUILD tries to extract the .jar-file with bsdtar and fails. It seems to ignore the noextract line. I fixed that by replacing the line noextract=('Mars${_ver}.jar') with noextract=("Mars${_ver}.jar") in the PKGBUILD.

Could someone please create a GTK version using java-swing-joxy-git? Perhaps repackage as mars-mips-gtk or perhaps build it into mars-mips as an option to load the GTK. I tried using java-swing-joxy-git while loading the jar and the gtk graphics (icons, etc.) wouldn't load until mouse over or some other redraw interaction.

It would be nice to be able to transmit commandline arguments to the MARS program.

Just one last remark: you can use Bash's parameter expansion to create the 4_4 part in the URL/file name: pkgver=4.4 _ver=${pkgver%.*}_${pkgver#*.} Now ${_ver} will contain 4_4
