- --- Version History of the BaudBandit.device ---
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- Version 1.4
- -----------
-
- -I decided to completely rewrite the request queuing. Read and write
- requests are now queued using real list structures, similar to
- serial.device. Since this is a major change, it is now version 1.4.
-
- -Found an incompatibility to serial.device: The IO_FLAGS were not cleared
- before executing any IO function. This caused many unexpected side effects
- like e.g. unanswered IO Requests and more.
-
- -Since there is such a big discrepancy between the number BaudBandit
- REGISTERED USERS and BaudBandit ILLEGAL USERS, I decided to include a
- little text that will be displayed on your terminal screens. It just
- reminds people to register. Nothing too disturbing, though.
-
- -I reworked the BaudBandit.Doc file, so better read it again.
-
-
- Version 1.4a
- ------------
-
- -Fixed a bug in AbortIO: The request was always replied, even if it
- couldn't be aborted! (e.g. because it was neither active nor queued)
-
- -From now on GvpFix, a modified GvpPatch, will be included in each
- BaudBandit release. It will patch in before gvpscsi.device to prevent
- transmission errors at higher baudrates when using BaudBandit.
-
-
- Version 1.4b
- ------------
-
- -Fixed a nasty little bug in the timer device code. tv_Secs was not
- cleared before sending the IORequest to timer.device. On some systems,
- this caused long delays in RTS/CTS handshaking.
-
- -Improved shareware reminder text output. It is now displayed on the
- TrapDoor and NComm terminal as well, hehehe...
-
-
- Version 1.4c
- ------------
-
- -I had better not "improved" the reminder text output. The device
- sometimes used deallocated memory for receive buffering, beware!
-
-
-
- Plans for future releases
- -------------------------
-
- -Include Break support
- -Include XOn/XOff support
- -Include shareware requesters and a time limit, if nobody registers. <grin>
