38     Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
39     a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the

80     and Mac2Mac_memcpy
81     - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary

364     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added support for 32 bit screens, cleaned up
365     VisualInfo code
366     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: cleaned up the code
367     - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: full screen video mode and color depth can now
368     be set via prefs("scr/<mode>")
369    
370     V0.4 (alpha) - 15.Apr.1999
371     - Added some literature references to the source files
372     - Modularized CPU engine: the interface of the CPU engine is now
373     defined in cpu_emulation.h, so different CPU engines can be
374     substituted more easily [as requested by Bill Huey]
375     - uae_cpu/gencpu.c: duplicate_carry() was missing in SUB and NBCD routines
376     - Unix: added autoconf stuff
377     - Unix: modified the makefile so it won't fail if cpuopti didn't work
378     [Daniel Thompson]
379    
380     V0.4 (alpha) - 11.Apr.1999
381     - cdrom.cpp: find_hfs_partition() bailed out too soon when finding no
382     "PN" signature [Lauri Pesonen]
383     - prefs.cpp: prefs file allows more whitespace between keyword and value
384     [Lauri Pesonen]
385     - prefs.cpp: remodeled to allow platform-specific prefs items (list of
386     keywords is kept in table)
387     - video.cpp/cscSetEntries: luminance mapping uses integer instead of
388     floating point math
389     - video_*.cpp: on most systems, the frame buffer is allocated with
390     two additional lines as some ROM versions seem to write behind
391     the frame buffer proper
392     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: defined X86_ASSEMBLY on i386/GCC systems
393     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: redefined get/put_mem() functions to take and
394     return an uae_u32 value, added some more x86 optimizations
395     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp/kSERDBaudRate: rates between 57600 and 65535
396     result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
397    
398     V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
399     - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources
400     moved to "uae" directory
401     - new preferences item "rom" to specify the path of the ROM file
402     - new preferences item "ether" for Ethernet driver
403     - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
404     - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
405     - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
406     - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
407     - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
408     - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
409     with an underscore are reserved
410     - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
411     - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
412     - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
413     - serial_defs.h: added error codes
414     - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
415     accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
416     a scratch memory block is used instead
417     - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
418     - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
419     - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
420     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM
421     cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
422     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
423     of an EMUL_OP routine
424     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
425     AmigaDOS operations
426     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
427     when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
428     are pending
429     - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
430     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
431     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned
432     as (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)
433     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
434     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
435     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: added support for parallel ports
436     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
437     - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
438     (useful when it crashed)
439    
440     V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
441     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]
442     - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: "screen" prefs item is now either
443     "win/<width>/<height>" for window mode or "scr" for full-screen
444     mode
445     - added documentation of preferences file format to README
446    
447     V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999
448     - tested with ROM versions 19 and 26
449     - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
450     BeOS R4.1
451     - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
452     in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
453     specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
454     - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
455     window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
456     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
457     24 bit pixels don't work)
458     - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
459    
460     V0.2 (alpha) - 23.Jan.1999
461     - first alpha release
