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

84     and Mac2Mac_memcpy
85     - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary

369     VisualInfo code
370     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: cleaned up the code
371     - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: full screen video mode and color depth can now
372     be set via prefs("scr/<mode>")
373    
374     V0.4 (alpha) - 15.Apr.1999
375     - Added some literature references to the source files
376     - Modularized CPU engine: the interface of the CPU engine is now
377     defined in cpu_emulation.h, so different CPU engines can be
378     substituted more easily [as requested by Bill Huey]
379     - uae_cpu/gencpu.c: duplicate_carry() was missing in SUB and NBCD routines
380     - Unix: added autoconf stuff
381     - Unix: modified the makefile so it won't fail if cpuopti didn't work
382     [Daniel Thompson]
383    
384     V0.4 (alpha) - 11.Apr.1999
385     - cdrom.cpp: find_hfs_partition() bailed out too soon when finding no
386     "PN" signature [Lauri Pesonen]
387     - prefs.cpp: prefs file allows more whitespace between keyword and value
388     [Lauri Pesonen]
389     - prefs.cpp: remodeled to allow platform-specific prefs items (list of
390     keywords is kept in table)
391     - video.cpp/cscSetEntries: luminance mapping uses integer instead of
392     floating point math
393     - video_*.cpp: on most systems, the frame buffer is allocated with
394     two additional lines as some ROM versions seem to write behind
395     the frame buffer proper
396     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: defined X86_ASSEMBLY on i386/GCC systems
397     - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: redefined get/put_mem() functions to take and
398     return an uae_u32 value, added some more x86 optimizations
399     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp/kSERDBaudRate: rates between 57600 and 65535
400     result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
401    
402     V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
403     - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources
404     moved to "uae" directory
405     - new preferences item "rom" to specify the path of the ROM file
406     - new preferences item "ether" for Ethernet driver
407     - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
408     - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
409     - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
410     - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
411     - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
412     - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
413     with an underscore are reserved
414     - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
415     - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
416     - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
417     - serial_defs.h: added error codes
418     - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
419     accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
420     a scratch memory block is used instead
421     - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
422     - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
423     - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
424     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM
425     cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
426     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
427     of an EMUL_OP routine
428     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
429     AmigaDOS operations
430     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
431     when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
432     are pending
433     - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
434     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
435     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned
436     as (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)
437     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
438     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
439     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: added support for parallel ports
440     - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
441     - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
442     (useful when it crashed)
443    
444     V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
445     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]
446     - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: "screen" prefs item is now either
447     "win/<width>/<height>" for window mode or "scr" for full-screen
448     mode
449     - added documentation of preferences file format to README
450    
451     V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999
452     - tested with ROM versions 19 and 26
453     - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
454     BeOS R4.1
455     - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
456     in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
457     specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
458     - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
459     window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
460     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
461     24 bit pixels don't work)
462     - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
463    
464     V0.2 (alpha) - 23.Jan.1999
