# Line 1 | Line 1
1 < V0.8 (snapshot) -
1 > V1.0 (snapshot) - <date>
2 >        - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching,
3 >          and gamma tables
4 >        - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves
5 >          like a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
6 >        - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
7 >          thread-safe mouse handling
8 >        - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
9 >          TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
10 >        - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has
11 >          its own interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of
12 >          mouse movement
13 >        - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk
14 >          over UDP" mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or
15 >          network drivers but can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II;
16 >          this is enabled by setting "udptunnel" to true
17 >        - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color
18 >          depths, which can be switched on-the-fly
19 >        - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility
20 >          with games like flight simulators)
21 >        - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the
22 >          60Hz video refresh raster
23 >        - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable
24 >          in the MacOS "Sound" control panel
25 >
26 > V0.9 (release 0.9-1) - 31.May 2001
27 >        - final adjustments for 0.9 release
28 >
29 > V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
30 >        - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes
31 >          all processed options
32 >        - serial_unix.cpp: input/output_thread_cancel weren't initialized
33 >          [Kolja Waschk]
34 >        - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
35 >          [Brian J. Johnson]
36 >        - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure
37 >          script cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for
38 >          other platforms (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
39 >        - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
40 >        - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec()
41 >          [Brian J. Johnson]
42 >        - Unix: FreeBSD configure script cleanups [Michael Alyn Miller]
43 >        - Unix: ether_linux.cpp moved and renamed to ether_unix.cpp, now
44 >          also works with the tap driver under FreeBSD [Michael Alyn Miller]
45 >        - BeOS: fixed some bugs in the extfs file types handling
46 >        - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
47 >
48 > V0.9 (snapshot) - 17.Feb.2001
49 >        - adapted for cxmon V3.0 which is now the required minimum
50 >        - UAE cpu: fixed a bug in the memory handlers preventing from
51 >          correctly updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems
52 >        - Unix: added (experimental) real addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
53 >          (activated through the "--enable-addressing=real" configure option)
54 >        - Unix: added direct addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
55 >          (default addressing mode, if possible)
56 >        - Unix: added screen updates on SEGV signals [Gwenole Beauchesne]
57 >          (activated through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
58 >        - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]
59 >        - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads
60 >        - Unix: command line options now use '--'-prefix, e.g. "--rominfo"
61          - AmigaOS: enabled floppy support, fixed floppy bugs [Jürgen Lachmann]
62 +        - AmigaOS: Amiga mouse pointer is hidden inside windowed Mac displays
63          - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: workaround for 2060scsi.device bug when
64            when reading from CD-ROM [Jürgen Lachmann]
65          - AmigaOS/prefs_editor_amiga.cpp: fixed bug when adding volumes
66            [Jürgen Lachmann]
67 +        - AmigaOS: added MacsBug support (tested with MacsBug6.6.1),
68 +          fixed <move sr,(sp)> bug [Jürgen Lachmann]
69 +        - AmigaOS: disabled 68060 Super Bypass mode because of CPU bug triggered
70 +          by MacOS 8
71 +        - AmigaOS: implemented XPRAM watchdog task
72          - AmigaOS/Unix/extfs_*.cpp: .finf helper file now stores complete
73            FInfo/FXInfo, replaced get/set_finder_*() functions by get/set_finfo()
74 <        - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads
74 >        - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the
75 >          command line
76 >        - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that
77 >          uses the 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run
78 >          Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
79 >          a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the
80 >          ROM file can be set with the preferences item "powerrom", default
81 >          is "PowerROM")
82          - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
83            four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character
84            constants in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings
85 +        - cdrom.cpp: implemented Status(6) call (return format list)
86 +          [Landon Fuller]
87          - Imported some changes from the Windows port, most notably FPU fixes
88            and the 1Hz interrupt [Lauri Pesonen]
89 +        - Ported Lauri Pesonen's FPU core to GCC/i386 [Gwenole Beauchesne]
90  
91   V0.8 (snapshot) - 13.Jul.2000
92          - Unix: runs natively on NetBSD/m68k
