# User Rev Content
1 cebix 1.25 V0.8 (release 0.8-1) - 30.Jan.2000
2     - extfs: extended size of finf helper files to 32 bytes to eventually
3     allow storing the complete FInfo/FXInfo in it
4    
5 cebix 1.24 V0.8 (snapshot) - 22.Dec.1999
6 cebix 1.21 - imported UAE CPU 0.8.10 changes
7     - new utility functions Mac_memset, Mac2Host_memcpy, Host2Mac_memcpu
8     and Mac2Mac_memcpy
9     - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary
10 cebix 1.24 IOParam block was not in Mac address space and FSItem parent IDs
11     didn't get swapped) [Lauri Pesonen]
12 cebix 1.23 - extfs.cpp: several fixes [Lauri Pesonen]
13 cebix 1.21 - some provisions for using UAE CPU compiler (doesn't work yet)

24     in the ROM is now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder
25     copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
26     bootup; yeah :-)
27     - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
28     emulation is turned off
29 cebix 1.12 - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
30 cebix 1.18 - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,
