******************************************************************************
Enforcer V37 - For 68020/68851, 68030, and 68040 CPUs
It requires V37 of the OS or better and does not have *any*
exceptions in it for specific software. Nothing should be causing
Enforcer hits.
Requires an MMU. On 68EC030 systems, it may think it is working
even if it is not due to the fact that the missing MMU is very
hard to detect. Use LawBreaker to check.
This Enforcer has also been highly optimized to be as fast as
possible.
Enforcer can now also be used with CPU or SetCPU FASTROM or most
any other MMU-Kickstart-Mapping tool. This means that you do not
have to give up your speed in order to use Enforcer. (Major win
on A2000 and A500 systems)
Much more documentation and information provided. Major new
output options. (Such as local output, STDOUT, and parallel
port options...)
Make sure you read the documentation before using these programs.
*****************
** Read the DOCs **
***************** Watch out since Enforcer does not get used
the same as the old Enforcer. Remember, this thing is a completely
different beast.
-----
Changes from V37.58:
Tested against some more CPU boards and now should handle even
the strangest of them. (I don't have these boards so I need
reports from people in order to make sure Enforcer works on
them.)
Cleaned up the output of the Enforcer VERBOSE option and
added more output to that option. Also added a check for
a strange operation with certain CPU boards.
Changes from V37.56:
Found the reason that certain 68030 CPU cards with large amounts
of RAM would not work with Enforcer. 68030 CPU board should now
work even with local FAST RAM.
Changes from V37.55:
Rebuilt with SAS/C 6.51
Added support for empty LINE debug hunks that are sometimes
produced by the SAS/C 6.50 SLink. This is actually a good thing
and should help reduce problems in the FindHit code for the future.
Added a signal to the system to provide for quick turn-around of
Alert output from Enforcer when Enforcer output is not direct to
the serial or parallel hardware.
Please send all comments to Michael Sinz. Enjoy...

************
** Remember ** *NOTHING* should cause an Enforcer hit. There is
************ no reason to ever cause one if the software is written
correctly. When Enforcer is running, the VBR is moved
and even interrupt vector poking should work just fine
without Enforcer hits. Software that causes Enforcer
hits may not be able to run on future systems. In fact,
such software may not even run on current systems.
