34 - New common version among all releases of OS-9 for the CoCo |
998 | 35 - Many commands have been updated and optimized: |
36 o For size reasons, command help information is no longer embedded in the | |
37 utilites, but is instead available through the helpmsg file in /DD/SYS | |
38 o date, dir, mdir, procs and verify now require a dash (-) before options | |
39 o format now has a cluster option and now shows the correct number of | |
40 good sectors on large sector devices | |
41 o Numerous commands have been optimized for size | |
42 o cmp, error, help and touch have been rewritten in assembly for size | |
43 o copy has been enhanced to include OS-9/68K-like features | |
44 - VDGInt has been back-ported to OS-9 Level Two from NitrOS-9. The | |
45 vdgint.io module contains both CoCo 1/2 AND CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
46 The vdgint_small.io module only contains CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
47 - CC3Go has been moved back into the root directory from the CMDS directory. | |
48 This keeps ROM-based users and those who want cc3go in their bootfile from | |
49 having to change the init module, which referenced CMDS/cc3go. | |
50 - CC3Go once again references /H0 and /H0/CMDS as paths that it tries to | |
51 chd/chx to upon startup. This allows for those with floppy boots who | |
52 want to point /DD at their floppy to continue to do so. Also, if the | |
53 forking of 'shell startup' fails due to lack of a shell file, then | |
54 CC3Go will now try to fork AutoEx instead of jumping to the crash routine. | |
55 - Several bugs that crept into IOMan during the last release have been fixed. | |
56 | |
1136 | 57 OS-9 Level Two V02.01.00 Beta2: |
485 | 58 - Defs files now have properly terminated lines and 'pag' is now emitted |
59 as a comment. | |
739 | 60 - SCF, Rammer and PipeMan are now made from the NitrOS-9 version source base, |
61 bringing in new improvements and features from that platform. | |
62 - Clock and Clock2 are now unifed once again and are built from the same source | |
63 base as the clocks from NitrOS-9. | |
998 | 64 - The printer driver is now for the CoCo 3 serial port. In the previous |
65 release, it was mistakenly made for the Disto parallel port. | |
592 | 66 - ASM now assembles 6309 op-codes. |
623 | 67 - Window descriptors now have proper initialization count. |
739 | 68 - The debug program is now part of the CMDS package. |
69 - With the inclusion of NitrOS-9's SCF, a bug which crashed the system when | |
70 typing CTRL-E or CTRL-C while using shellplus has been fixed. |
