* New Tape Management menu - can now create blank tape images, switch tape
to read/write in order to save additional data at the end of the current
tape image, rewind/fast forward the tape, and mark it as read-only. See
DOC/USAGE for details.
* Displaying tape position when "Show sector/block counter" is enabled.
* Reworked Cartridge Management menu - now displays filename of the
attached cartridge.
* Option to disable restarting of the machine after cartridge change.
* When attaching a cartridge from the command line, cartridge type can now
be specified using the new -cart-type and -cart2-type options.
* New cartridge types supported:
- OSS 8 KB cartridge
- OSS two chip 16 KB cartridge (043M)

- SIC! 128 KB cartridge
- SIC! 256 KB cartridge
- SIC! 512 KB cartridge
- Standard 2 KB cartridge
- Standard 4 KB cartridge
- Right slot 4 KB cartridge
* The configure script can now auto-detect some of the available display and
sound interfaces before compiling.
* Option to enable XEP80 added to The Emulator Settings menu.
* Emulation of the 1200XL, including console LEDs, no built-in BASIC, the
F1-F4 keys (mapped to arrow keys in the SDL version) and the on-board
J1 jumper.
* Emulation of the XE Game System, including the built-in game and
detachable keyboard.
* Revamped the Select System menu (now called System Settings). Can now
select many system settings, including RAM expansions, OS and BASIC
revision, and more.
* System ROM settings moved to a separate menu. Now it stores paths to all
known official revisions of the Atari OS, the 5200 BIOS, all BASIC
revisions, and the XEGS built-in game. The OS revision to use is chosen
automatically when selecting a machine type (for example, the 400/800 OS
PAL or NTSC version is chosen depending on the selected TV system).
* 400/800: Emulation of all RAM sizes achievable with different combinations
of the CX852 and CX853 modules - from 8 to 48 KB.
* Emulation of 32/48KB memory sizes in the XL/XE mode, compatible
with memory expansions for the 600XL manufactured by RC Systems.
* Emulation of the MapRAM hardware hack.
* Display settings: "Hue" renamed to "Tint". Tint now configurable also in
PAL mode.

Two years and a little over a month elapsed between the pkgsrc release
and the latest version 2.2.1 (5 May 2011). There were hundreds of
changes, but the vast majority were bug fixes and improvements on
existing functionality.
The only major addition was implementation of IDE.
See changelog in DOC/ChangeLog for details.

Just a quick UI bugfixes release.
Changes 2.0.0:
This release brings major source code clean up, numerous bug fixes and
many great new features and important improvements. 98% of changes since
last release have been made by Piotr Fusik - admire his dedication
to Atari800 project while you will be browsing through the impressive list
of changes below.
Run-time configuration (via the .atari800.cfg file) has been improved.
All configuration options are now available in the User Interface.
Remember to use "Save configuration file" when necessary.
If you are new to Atari800, press F1 and select "Emulator Configuration"
to configure the ROM images. This can be easily done with
"Find ROM images in a directory".
DISK_DIR, ROM_DIR, EXE_DIR and STATE_DIR configuration options are no longer
supported in this version. You need to re-select your directories
using "Emulator Configuration" -> "Configure directories".

|
|
* Solid improvements of keyboard handling in SDL and X11 versions
|
|
* ANTIC mode 2 + GTIA mode 10 - half pixel shift fix
* Amiga port updated
* OS/2 port updated
* DOSVGA port updated - joystick definition read again
* X11 port has improved keyboard support (Ctrl+Pause, left Ctrl for joy button)
* SDL port updated: joysticks emulated on keyboard can be freely edited
now with SDL_JOY_0_<direction> and SDL_TRIG_0 (same for JOY_1/TRIG_1)
config file parameters that expect values from SDL keySyms.
|
|
|
|
* R: can now be hooked to a real serial port (no runtime config yet)
* various ANTIC and POKEY fixes for perfect software compatibility
* disk and cartridge info saved in the state files
* casette handling greatly improved
* even more cartridges supported (40 now!)

|

Highlights since last 1.2.5 release:
------------------------------------
* new HiFi sound (you may en/disable it in the UI)
* new cycle-exact Antic emulation
* "H:" emulation complete (including subfolders)
* Paged memory implementation (fast XE bank-switching)
* new configuration file name and location ($HOME/.atari800.cfg)
|
|
Summary of changes since 1.2.4 (from ChangeLog):
* DOC/cart.txt: fixed a few typos
* ui.c:
- applied patch from Ed Cogburn that fixes subsequent mounting
of R/W disks in slot that was mounted R/O previously.
- finally implemented the R/W <-> R/O mode switching using the Space Bar.
Please note that this R/W <-> R/O switch is just temporary and does
not change the writeprotect flag of ATR images. Besides, it cannot
override this flag so you actually can't mount a writeprotected ATR
image read/write using this Space Bar toggle.
* atari.c: Ken Ames sent me a very simple patch that is supposed to allow
compiling the Atari800 on OS/2 "using Hob X11, XFree86, or IBM's X11
server".
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt: five new cartridge types (Nir Dary)
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt, DOC/README: seven new cartridge types
* pokeysnd.c: a fix for better quality of sound
* antic.c: ANTIC mode E + GTIA mode 9 ("Unconventional 2k", "Ass Kisiel")
* DOC/BUGS: "Numen" soundtrack
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt: 1 MB XEGS cart
* input.c: Amiga/ST mouse right button ("Bombdown")
* input.h, input.c, pia.c: MultiJoy4 interface (4 joysticks for XL/XE)

Some additional cleanup by me.
Changes since 0.9.9* are too many to list here -- lots of new features.
