And/or directly link github in the tutorial.
Or make two archives, one directly linking the raw CAS file and another directly linking the raw non-CAS file.

In my opinion, the file location doesn't matter and doesn't change anything.
But if people just need this to stop fighting, then perfect.

nLoader is still very useful and legitimate for owners of TI-Nspire CX HW-W+, since the Ndless 4.5 installer is not the best one :

Although, some tools like Nover work better with a reboot-proof Ndless environment.

Both links would be :
https://github.com/parrotgeek1/TI-Nspir ... OS.bin.tns
https://github.com/parrotgeek1/TI-Nspir ... OS.bin.tns

Change it to that.
(I made a "testing" branch so that I don't break them. I'll update "master" at every public release)

Here you are, 2 different archives with external download buttons :
archives_voir.php?id=1376763
archives_voir.php?id=1374509

I hope everyone is happy now.

And just edited the tutorial to reflect the changes, part D.
The last part only available in english for the moment.

Thanks. You should still rename the archive though.

Well for me neither, people won't notice the difference, and it will basically mean the same thing: a CAS patcher is still available as a direct download through TI-Planet.
It's arguably worse, now: the file is hosted somewhere we have no control on.

Regading law things Lionel talked about, it might (or might not, I am not a lawyer) be a bit better to not have the file directly hosted here anymore, but the long-term solution is still to have a launcher without the CAS-enabling patches, then there's no problem regardless of the hosting location or moral/ethics.
