- Log of changes for the MegaToolbox
- ----------------------------------
-
- Version 1.1 (8 March 1994)
-
- - Added support for 32 bit protected mode (not released with this
- version).
-
- - Added support for Symantec C++ in 16 bit real mode.
-
- Version 1.0 (30 December 1993)
-
- - Support has been added for MSC 6.0 libraries.
-
- - Library has now all been compiled for the 386, and only supports the
- large memory model. The entire library is being ported to run under
- protected mode DOS (under emx) and under OS/2 2.x, so the large
- model was chosen to simplify porting considerations.
-
- - Added routines to suspend and resume operation of the mouse and
- event modules, to allow shelling to DOS etc.
-
- - Changed the event handling routines to mask out the BIOS special
- shift/ctrl/alt scancode values and to convert them to normal scancode
- values, using the modifier flags to identify special key combinations.
-
- - Changed the handling of MOUSEMOVE events. Now there will only be
- a maximum of one mouse movement event in the queue at a time, so
- the event queue will not become satured by movement events.
-
- - Fixed keyboard event handling so that spurious KEYUP events are
- not generated by modifier keys, CAPSLOCK, NUMLOCK etc.
-
- Version 1.0b3 - Third beta test release
-
- - Fixed bug involving new TIMERTICK event. Forgot to re-install the
- old timer tick ISR upon program exit.
-
- - Added code to check for 80x87 emulation software installed on INT 7.
- Should now report no-copro with emulators such as FRANKIE.387.
-
- Version 1.0b2 - Second beta test release
-
- - Fixed a bug in the mouse library that prevented the MS_constrain
- routine from working correctly.
-
- - Changed the keyboard event handling routines to post KEYDOWN,
- KEYREPEAT and KEYUP events to the event queue. Thus you can now
- filter auto-repeat keypresses from real user keypresses, and
- determine when a key is released.
-
- - Added a new TIMERTICK event to the event library. This event can
- be scheduled to be posted at periodic intervals.
-
- - Modified the support for EGA/VGA 43/50 line modes. Now you can
- explictly select 43 line mode on the VGA or the standard 50 line
- mode.
-
- Version 1.0b1 - First beta test release
-
