# Content
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 - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color
9 depth, which can be switched on-the-fly
10 - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility
11 with games like flight simulators)
12 - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable
13 in the MacOS "Sound" control panel
14
15 V0.9 (release 0.9-1) - 31.May 2001
16 - final adjustments for 0.9 release

22 [Kolja Waschk]
23 - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
24 [Brian J. Johnson]

26 script cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for
27 other platforms (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
28 - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
29 - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec()
30 [Brian J. Johnson]

35 - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
36
37 V0.9 (snapshot) - 17.Feb.2001

65 - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that
66 uses the 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run
67 Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
68 a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the
69 ROM file can be set with the preferences item "powerrom", default
70 is "PowerROM")

89 and mouse wheel options

113 - extfs.cpp: several fixes [Lauri Pesonen]
114 - some provisions for using UAE CPU compiler (doesn't work yet)
115 - video_x.cpp: XFree86 VidMode extension is used to switch modes
116 in DGA mode

420 the frame buffer proper
421 - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: defined X86_ASSEMBLY on i386/GCC systems
422 - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: redefined get/put_mem() functions to take and
423 return an uae_u32 value, added some more x86 optimizations
424 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp/kSERDBaudRate: rates between 57600 and 65535
425 result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
426
427 V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
428 - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources
429 moved to "uae" directory
430 - new preferences item "rom" to specify the path of the ROM file
431 - new preferences item "ether" for Ethernet driver
432 - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
433 - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
434 - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
435 - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
436 - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
437 - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
438 with an underscore are reserved
439 - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
440 - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
441 - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
442 - serial_defs.h: added error codes
443 - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
444 accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
445 a scratch memory block is used instead
446 - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
447 - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
448 - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
449 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM
450 cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
451 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
452 of an EMUL_OP routine
453 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
454 AmigaDOS operations
455 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
456 when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
457 are pending
458 - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
459 - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
460 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned
461 as (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)
462 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
463 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
464 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: added support for parallel ports
465 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
466 - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
467 (useful when it crashed)
468
469 V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
470 - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]
471 - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: "screen" prefs item is now either
472 "win/<width>/<height>" for window mode or "scr" for full-screen
473 mode
474 - added documentation of preferences file format to README
475
476 V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999
477 - tested with ROM versions 19 and 26
478 - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
479 BeOS R4.1
480 - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
481 in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
482 specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
483 - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
484 window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
485 - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
486 24 bit pixels don't work)
487 - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
488
489 V0.2 (alpha) - 23.Jan.1999
490 - first alpha release
