Changes since version 0.22:
- Moved over some features from WinUAE:
* better m68k exception handling
* better m68k prefetch emulation
* better debugger
- More merging with WinUAE; a lot of the input device code has changed
- GUI cleaned up.
- Quest to eliminate useless options continues: 68000 mode is always "slow
but compatible"; it's not that slow after all.
- Now uses GTK2 for the GUI.
- Added ALSA sound support from Heikki Orsila
Changes since 0.8.19:
9B1230 lockscr/unlockscr fixes in drawing.c.
Add sdlgfx from Bernd [4] Lachner.
Filesystem asm code improvements from Toni (make it pic, call
setup_exter earlier in the boot sequence, etc.)
Also add Toni's patch to make rtarea position configurable (keep it
at 0xF00000 for now, though).
Avoid installing filesystem stuff if user didn't request to mount
directories.
BEAMCON0 is only available with ECS Agnus.
Revert some bogus parts of the write_log patch.
9B1219 Add some missing clipping to the Picasso code.
Limit number of illegal-mem warnings.
9B1217 Fix the GUI crash when changing floppies.
Changes to support programs that change between HAM/no HAM in the
middle of a line.
Some bug fixes, and a big fprintf->write_log patch from Alex Kazik.
User-visible changes in 0.8.17:
- AGA should be a bit faster.
- AGA sprites emulation added by Toni Wilen.
- Numerous bug fixes.
- In the Unix version, the gtk UI has a lot more options available.
There's a new option "Enable copper speedup code"; I'd be interested in
hearing whether there's any software out there that does not work (or
runs slower) if this option is enabled.
- Now supports image files of high density floppies (Dr. Adil Temel).
- Support for A1000 Kickstart disks (Gerald Schnabel).
- The option to disable autoconfig devices no longer exists; the emulator
automatically recognizes if the Kickstart version is too old.
- Numerous improvements for the integrated debugger.
- State save/restore implemented by Toni Wilen. At the moment, this is
experimental, "use at your own risk" code. It is not guaranteed that
future versions of the emulator will be able to read snapshots saved by
this version. Test it and report bugs.
