- Replacement arp.library for Kickstart 2.0 or higher.
-
- Don't use on Kickstart 1.2/1.3. Your Amiga will crash!!
-
- Changes made to arp.library:
-
- o FileRequest() removed! Will always return FALSE! This means you will
- _have_ to run a patch program to replace the Arp file requester by some
- other one. Use RTPatch, ReqChange, MFR, ArpToAsl,...
-
- o All Arp replacements for DOS calls (Open() -> Execute()) routed back
- to dos.library.
-
- o CompareLock() routed to DOS SameLock()
-
- o Puts() routed to DOS PutStr()
-
- o Assign() routed to DOS Lock() & AssignLock()
-
- o FindCLI() routed to DOS FindCliProc() or MaxCli()
-
- o Getenv() routed to DOS GetVar()
-
- o Setenv() routed to DOS SetVar()
-
- o TackOn() routed to DOS AddPart()
-
- o BaseName() routed to DOS FilePart()
-
- o StamptoStr() routed to DOS DateToStr()
-
- o StrtoStamp() routed to DOS StrToDate()
-
- o CloseLibrary() fixed, flushes datacache of 68040 processor. Arp commands
- place code on the stack before closing the Arp library and this caused
- them to crash on 68040 machines.
-
- This is just a hacked up version of the library to improve compatibility of
- Arp with Kickstart 2.0 (or higher). Arp has not been updated in almost three
- years now, so I suppose we can say it is dead. The most useful functions of
- Arp can now be found in the Kickstart 2.0 ROM, so there is no real need
- anymore for Arp.
-
- Note that this replacement library has been constructed without the Arp
- authors' permission.
-
- Release 40.1
- ------------
- - First release.
-
- Release 40.2
- ------------
- - CloseLibrary() patch added for 68040 machines (e.g. A4000).
