- * First stable, working release of AmigaTalk©. Once the original source
- code for Little Smalltalk V1.0 was cleaned up (removed all macros
- that should have been functions, placed Global variables & flags in
- one file, re-formatted all code to make it readable, & changed the
- function declarations to static wherever possible), the last few
- bugs were found in the ByteCode interpreter & the code started
- working correctly. (NOTE to all Programmers out there: Remove the
- TAB key from your keyboard, no two editors or printers treat them the
- same, so they just have to be transformed to spaces anyway!)
-
- * All of Intuition (except for Alerts) were given Classes.
- Gadgets & Menus will be re-done for a later revision of AmigaTalk
- to use NewGadgets & NewMenus.
-
- * Classes for the following System Devices & parts were added:
- Device.st "Abstract Class."
- GamePort.st "Access to the Mouse & GamePort devices."
- Library.st "Access to shared Library information."

- SerialDevice.st "Access to the Serial device."
- Timer.st "Access to the Timer device."
- TrackDisk.st "Access to the TrackDisk device."
