391     - Added some literature references to the source files

399    
400     V0.4 (alpha) - 11.Apr.1999

416     result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
417    
418     V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
419     - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources
420     moved to "uae" directory

423     - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
424     - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
425     - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
426     - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
427     - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
428     - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
429     with an underscore are reserved

431     - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
432     - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
433     - serial_defs.h: added error codes
434     - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
435     accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
436     a scratch memory block is used instead
437     - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
438     - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
439     - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults

441     cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
442     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
443     of an EMUL_OP routine
444     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
445     AmigaDOS operations
446     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
447     when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
448     are pending
449     - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
450     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
451     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned

453     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
454     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()

456     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
457     - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
458     (useful when it crashed)
459    
460     V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
461     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]

464     mode
465     - added documentation of preferences file format to README
466

469     - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
470     BeOS R4.1
471     - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
472     in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
473     specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
474     - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
475     window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
476     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
477     24 bit pixels don't work)
478     - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
479
