| 2150 | 115 - A bug in os9gen which caused it to create fragmented bootfiles by default |

| 117 the -e option must be used to create fragmented bootfiles. | |
| 2160 | 118 - The init module has been extended to include the version string that was |

| 251 | |
| 252 Level 2 Only: | |
| 253 - SCF now utilizes the V$DRIVEX field in the device table, resulting in | |
| 254 faster calls to the driver and a reduction in code size. | |
| 255 - ioman has undergone small optimizations to work better with the new | |
| 256 back-ported kernel. | |
| 257 - keydrv and snddrv have been renamed to keydrv_cc3.sb and snddrv_cc3.sb, | |
| 258 and all relevant bootlist files have been changed. | |

| 267 | |
| 2170 | 268 OS-9 V3.1.4: |
| 2150 | 269 |
| 270 - asm is now at edition 8 and includes the following fixes/additions: | |
| 271 o Symbols now allow underscores. | |
| 272 o The "parens error" bug has been fixed. | |
| 273 o Added support for case-sensitive symbols with the U option flag. | |
| 274 o Improved 4-digit year fix for date/time string. | |
| 275 o Automatic conversion of tabs to spaces on input. | |
| 276 - A bug accidentally introduced into os9gen related to boot track on | |
| 277 double-sided disks has been fixed. | |
| 278 - The directory structure of the Modules disk has been modified. All | |
| 279 modules and related files are now under the LEVEL1 directory. | |
| 280 - There are now two versions of sysgo: sysgo_h0 which performs chd/chx | |
| 281 to /H0 on startup, and sysgo_dd which performs chd/chx to /DD on startup. | |
| 282 - A compatibility issue with os9gen's -t option and OS-9 Level One | |

| 295 - The prompt command has been added to the standard command set. | |
| 296 - os9gen now supports the -t= option which allows one to specify an | |
| 297 alternate boot track file. | |
| 298 - Two new directories have been added: BOOTLISTS and BOOTSCRIPTS. | |
| 299 The former contains bootlist files for building boot disks, while | |
| 300 the latter contains scripts to build boot disks. | |
| 301 - There are now two booters for booting from a WD1773 based | |
| 302 floppy controller: boot_1773_6ms and boot_1773_30ms for | |
| 303 6 and 30 millisecond step rates. | |
| 304 - The help utility has been enhanced to show help subjects if | |
| 305 forked without any command line parameters. | |
| 306 | |
| 307 Level 1 Only: | |
| 308 - Clock modules for Eliminator, Disto 2-N-1, Disto 4-N-1, Harris, and | |

| 328 | |

| 331 been added to the MODULES directory. | |
| 332 - Slight performance modifications were made to RBF and SCF. | |

| 334 | |
| 335 ------------------------------------------------------ | |
| 336 | |
| 2170 | 337 OS-9 V3.1.1: |
| 2150 | 338 |

| 343 has been fixed. | |
| 344 | |
| 345 Level 2 Only: | |
| 346 - rbf.mn has been back-ported from NitrOS-9 in order to unify the code base | |
| 347 and bring non-6309 specific features to OS-9 Level Two. | |
| 348 - A bug in IOMan which affected any driver wanting to access the port | |
| 349 address of its hardware via its path descriptor has been fixed. | |

| 351 no parameters are given. Also, the montype.hp file has been updated. | |
| 352 | |
| 353 ------------------------------------------------------ | |
| 354 | |
| 2170 | 355 OS-9 V3.1.0: |
| 2150 | 356 |
| 357 - New common version among all releases of OS-9 for the CoCo | |
| 358 - Many commands have been updated and optimized: | |
| 359 o For size reasons, command help information is no longer embedded in the | |
| 360 utilites, but is instead available through the helpmsg file in /DD/SYS | |
| 361 o date, dir, mdir, procs and verify now require a dash (-) before options | |
| 362 o format now has a cluster option and now shows the correct number of | |
| 363 good sectors on large sector devices | |
| 364 o Numerous commands have been optimized for size | |
| 365 o cputype, ded, devs, disasm, dmode and irqs have been added to the | |
| 366 CMDS directory | |

| 369 | |
| 370 Level 2 Only: | |
| 371 - VDGInt has been back-ported to OS-9 Level Two from NitrOS-9. The | |
| 372 vdgint.io module contains both CoCo 1/2 AND CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
| 373 The vdgint_small.io module only contains CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
| 374 - CC3Go has been moved back into the root directory from the CMDS directory. | |
| 375 This keeps ROM-based users and those who want cc3go in their bootfile from | |
| 376 having to change the init module, which referenced CMDS/cc3go. | |
| 377 - CC3Go once again references /H0 and /H0/CMDS as paths that it tries to | |
| 378 chd/chx to upon startup. This allows for those with floppy boots who | |
| 379 want to point /DD at their floppy to continue to do so. Also, if the | |
| 380 forking of 'shell startup' fails due to lack of a shell file, then | |
| 381 CC3Go will now try to fork AutoEx instead of jumping to the crash routine. | |
| 382 - Several bugs that crept into IOMan during the last release have been fixed. | |
| 383 | |
| 384 ------------------------------------------------------ | |
| 385 | |
| 386 OS-9 V02.01.00 'Phoenix' Release (11/04/2002): | |
| 387 | |
| 388 - Defs files now have properly terminated lines and 'pag' is now emitted | |
| 389 as a comment. | |
| 390 - ASM now assembles 6309 op-codes | |
| 391 | |
| 392 Level 1 Only: | |
| 393 - SYS/password now references /DD instead of /D0 | |
| 394 | |
| 395 Level 2 Only: | |
| 396 - SCF, Rammer and PipeMan are now made from the NitrOS-9 version source base, | |
| 397 bringing in new improvements and features from that platform. | |
| 398 - Clock and Clock2 are now unifed once again and are built from the same source | |
| 399 base as the clocks from NitrOS-9. | |
| 400 - The printer driver is now for the CoCo 3 serial port. In the previous | |
| 401 release, it was mistakenly made for the Disto parallel port. | |
| 402 - Window descriptors now have proper initialization count. | |
| 403 - The debug program is now part of the CMDS package. | |
| 404 - With the inclusion of NitrOS-9's SCF, a bug which crashed the system when | |
| 405 typing CTRL-E or CTRL-C while using shellplus has been fixed. | |
| 406 |
