# Line 35 | Line 35 | Some features of Basilisk II:
35    - Floppy disk driver (only 1.44MB disks supported)
36    - Driver for HFS partitions and hardfiles
37    - CD-ROM driver with basic audio functions
38 +  - Easy file exchange with the host OS via a "Host Directory Tree" icon
39 +    on the Mac desktop
40    - Ethernet driver
41    - Serial drivers
42    - SCSI Manager (old-style) emulation
# Line 137 | Line 139 | cdrom <CD-ROM drive description>

142 + extfs <direcory path>
143 +
144 +  This item specifies the root directory for the "Host Directory Tree"
145 +  file system (the "Unix/BeOS/Amiga/..." icon on the Finder desktop).
146 +  All objects contained in that directory are accessible by Mac applications.
147 +  This feature is only available when File System Manager V1.2 or later
148 +  is installed on the Mac side. FSM 1.2 is built-in beginning with MacOS 7.6
149 +  and can be installed as a system extension (downloadable from Apple, look
150 +  for the FSM SDK in the developer section) for earlier MacOS versions.

228      The "video mode" is one of the following:

438      By default, the X11 event handler in Basilisk II uses KeySyms to
439      translate keyboard event to Mac keycodes. While this method is very

444      not on the selected keymap. Unfortunately it depends on the X server
445      being used and possibly also on the type of keyboard attached. So
446      Basilisk II needs a table to translate X keycodes to Mac keycodes.
447 <    This table is read by default from /usr/local/lib/basilisk_ii_keycodes
447 >    This table is read by default from /usr/local/share/BasiliskII/keycodes
448      unless you specify a different file with the "keycodefile" item.
