Log Message:
- it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output
  to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or
  printer port setting (instead of a device name like '/dev/ttyS0')
  [Brian Johnson]
- the option "--config FILE" tells B2 to use a different config file

File Contents

# User Rev Content
1 cebix 1.79 V1.0 (snapshot) - <date>
2     - fixed the problem with Ticks getting incremented on every interrupt, not
3     just 60Hz (e.g. moving the mouse made the caret blink faster)
4 cebix 1.80 - Unix: cleaned up pthread attributes [Brian Johnson]
5 cebix 1.81 - Unix: fixed floppy problems under Linux
6 gbeauche 1.84 - Unix: implement "ignoresegv" feature on Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc
7 cebix 1.85 - Unix: serial port baud rates are now set correctly
8     - Unix: it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output
9     to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or
10     printer port setting (instead of a device name like '/dev/ttyS0')
11     [Brian Johnson]
12     - Unix: the option "--config FILE" tells B2 to use a different config file
13 cebix 1.79
14 cebix 1.78 V1.0 (snapshot) - 15.Jan.2002
15 cebix 1.79 - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching, and
16     gamma tables
17     - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves like
18     a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
19     - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
20     thread-safe mouse handling
21     - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
22     TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
23     - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has its own
24     interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of mouse movement
25     - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk over UDP"
26     mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or network drivers but
27     can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II; this is enabled by setting
28     "udptunnel" to true
29     - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color depths,
30     which can be switched on-the-fly
31     - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility with
32     games like flight simulators)
33     - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the 60Hz
34     video refresh raster
35     - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable in the
36     MacOS "Sound" control panel
37 cebix 1.68

40 cebix 1.67
41     V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
42 cebix 1.79 - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes all processed
43     options
44     - serial_unix.cpp: input/output_thread_cancel weren't initialized
45     [Kolja Waschk]
46     - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
47     [Brian J. Johnson]
48     - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure script
49     cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for other platforms
50     (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
51     - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
52     - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec() [Brian J. Johnson]

54     - Unix: ether_linux.cpp moved and renamed to ether_unix.cpp, now also works
55     with the tap driver under FreeBSD [Michael Alyn Miller]
56     - BeOS: fixed some bugs in the extfs file types handling

62     updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems

65     - Unix: added direct addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne] (default addressing
66     mode, if possible)
67     - Unix: added screen updates on SEGV signals [Gwenole Beauchesne] (activated
68     through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
69     - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]
70     - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads
71     - Unix: command line options now use '--'-prefix, e.g. "--rominfo"

85     - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the command line
86     - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that uses the
87     680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run Basilisk II (ca.
88     4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox, a PCI PowerMac ROM image is
89     needed to use this (the path name of the ROM file can be set with the
90     preferences item "powerrom", default is "PowerROM")
91     - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
92     four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character constants
93     in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings

107     wheel options

111     read back correctly
112     - clip_*.cpp: added prefs item "noclipconversion" for turning off charset

126     Mac2Mac_memcpy
127     - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary IOParam

140     now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder copying bug and also most
141     "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS bootup; yeah :-)
142     - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU emulation is
143     turned off
144     - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
145     - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,

487     (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
488     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed 24 bit
489     pixels don't work)
