367     V0.4 (alpha) - 11.Apr.1999
368     - cdrom.cpp: find_hfs_partition() bailed out too soon when finding no
369     "PN" signature [Lauri Pesonen]
370     - prefs.cpp: prefs file allows more whitespace between keyword and value
371     [Lauri Pesonen]
372     - prefs.cpp: remodeled to allow platform-specific prefs items (list of
373     keywords is kept in table)
374     - video.cpp/cscSetEntries: luminance mapping uses integer instead of
375     floating point math
376     - video_*.cpp: on most systems, the frame buffer is allocated with
377     two additional lines as some ROM versions seem to write behind
378     the frame buffer proper
379     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: defined X86_ASSEMBLY on i386/GCC systems
380     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: redefined get/put_mem() functions to take and
381     return an uae_u32 value, added some more x86 optimizations
382     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp/kSERDBaudRate: rates between 57600 and 65535
383     result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
384    
385     V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
386     - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources
387     moved to "uae" directory
388     - new preferences item "rom" to specify the path of the ROM file
389     - new preferences item "ether" for Ethernet driver
390     - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
391     - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
392     - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
393     - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
394     - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
395     - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
396     with an underscore are reserved
397     - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
398     - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
399     - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
400     - serial_defs.h: added error codes
401     - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
402     accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
403     a scratch memory block is used instead
404     - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
405     - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
406     - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
407     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM
408     cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
409     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
410     of an EMUL_OP routine
411     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
412     AmigaDOS operations
413     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
414     when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
415     are pending
416     - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
417     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
418     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned
419     as (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)
420     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
421     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
422     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: added support for parallel ports
423     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
424     - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
425     (useful when it crashed)
426    
427     V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
428     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]
429     - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: "screen" prefs item is now either
430     "win/<width>/<height>" for window mode or "scr" for full-screen
431     mode
432     - added documentation of preferences file format to README
433    
434     V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999
435     - tested with ROM versions 19 and 26
436     - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
437     BeOS R4.1
438     - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
439     in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
440     specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
441     - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
442     window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
443     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
444     24 bit pixels don't work)
445     - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
446    
447     V0.2 (alpha) - 23.Jan.1999
448     - first alpha release
