Dugal (jpd@usl.edu)) v19961203 Proper permissions for main directory. v19961202 Renamed scripts/gz to scripts/tgz v19961202 Added raw devices for Solaris, apparently more performant Test first for tzset in autoconfigure (Solaris) v19961202 Segment fault due to change of buffer size fixed E-mail adress fixed v19961117 Lots of portability fixes. v19961012 Yet another typo fix for the partition table code. Oh Gawd, will this never stop? Fix for proper .mcwd pathname concatenations v19961009 Backed out partition table "fix": the original code was right after all v19960920 Corrected a few uninitialised variables v19960918 Corrected doc about devices file. v19960917 Added pointer to the doc to the README file v19960913 Partition table parsing fixed v19960807 Fujitsu DS/90 (UXP) support v19960727 ISC device dispatcher cleanup in mtools.h fat_bits 12/16 toggle fix. More space for error message variable in mformat Typo fix in mren.1 v19960710 Fix for CPU names with dots in autoconfigure Some new device descriptions FreeBSD fixes v19960624 Set XDF mode when formatting an XDF disk (makes sense, after all...) v19960623 XDF seems to work. Yeah! v19960620 More ED fixes. More parameter size fixed for 64bit. v19960609 Beginning of ED and 5 1/4 HD XDF support (doesn't work yet for ED) v19960528 Make vold and "raw" floppy drive accesible simultaneously on Solaris by calling one A: and the other B: Add missing mbadblock LINK in Makefile.in v19960527 Inserted missing newline character v19960525 Treat number of heads or sectors as chars. The BIOS wouldn't allow bigger numbers anyways, thus big numbers are probably due to errors. v19960524 Pattern match fix. Geometry setting for HP/UX v19960522 Changed auto array in codepage to malloc'ed one in order to work around buggy compilers OSF ALPHA devices Pointers to other doc in the INSTALL file v19960516 Do no longer be confused by deleted VSE's Define MAXPATHLEN for SCO Missing lockf prototype for SCO v19960514 Handle DEBUG flag by autoconf Added Host vendor to compile flags in order to handle Sinix Better Sinix handling in devices.c Only print duplicate VSE messages when running with DEBUG Fix mlabel exit code Read-only locking Doc fixes Xcopy fixes for Sysv v19960512 3.0 released. v19960508 pre4-3.0. Lots of bug fixes. Texinfo file v19960502 pre-3.0 v19960501 use autoconf to get rid once and for all of those pesky OS dependencies. v19960429 use sys/termio instead of sys/termios to please AIX v19960427 more spelling fixes. v19960426 Speling fixes v19960424 Mmount arg parsing bug fix v19960422 New partition configuration variable. v19960419 Spelling fixes, removed warning in README, IRIX floppy devices v19960214 More Alpha streamlining v19960213 Alpha patches (64 bit clean-ness) AIX patches (built in drive names) Raw tty patches (no need to type return when confirming an action v19960131 Solaris patches Replaced include strings.h by string.h everywhere where applicable Changed thousands separator in mdir from a dot to a space to please both Americans and Europeans. Fixed memory allocation bug if no "constant device" is present. #defined strtoul to atol for SunOS v19960121 Minor cleanup, released 2.5.4 v19951205 Added "magic" header to manpages to have man run them through tbl v19951209 MTOOLS_LOWER_CASE is back, various small bug fixes over Tuesday's changes v19951205 Bus strike in Grenoble! Well, let's do something useful and re-arrange the configuration file syntax :-) The syntax has become much more flexible now, and also includes items which used to be only accessible via environmental variables. Moreover, it is now possible to include character translation tables in line. v19951126 Fixed another Atari disk bug: Atari disks sport a bogus "number of hidden sectors" v19951125 Fixed missing zero-terminator in autorenamed long names MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK now implies MTOOLS_FAT_COMPATIBILITY. v19951124 Fixed small quoted-printable-induced typo in the Makefile. Folks, please don't use quoted-printable. It sometimes changes the CONTENT of your messages. Even the MIME RFC's acknowledge this. Case in point: £400 gets transformed into =A3400, which looks like 3400 pounds to a person unaware of this MIME "feature". v19951123 Mformat now puts a 12 bit FAT on ED to better match Messy DOS' behavior. v19951115 Added ability to do mcopy e: to copy all files from the root directory of e: New Xdf-less Linux target in the Makefile Relaxed sanity check to let pass wonky Atari disks whose FAT begins with 3 zero bytes. Make the check of the initial fat bytes conditional on mtools_skip_check Corrected "testna=" bug Upped minimal sector size to be 256 (instead of 128). This helps 2m30 v19951112 2m30 compatibility Manpage update 2m checksum bug fix Ability to mformat 2m disks v19951107 Xdf bug fix (dev parameters always set to Xdf, even if it wasn't really an Xdf disk) Fixed YAHB (yet another hash table bug :) ) . Hope this one's the last. Centralizing most env-var handling. Update of the mtools manpage. Xdf is now optional, and only active if MTOOLS_USE_XDF is set. Saves a few milliseconds of startup time on non Xdf disks. Some lawyer-proofing, just in case :) v19951106 Fast xdf code (finally!) Minor performance enhancements here and there. Names which are all lower case now generate a long name entry (according to Steve Searle, that's how Win'95 behaves). v19951029 Character translation table fixes. Other name fixes. v19951026 Put restrictions on long names to better match Win'95. (suggested by Steve Searle) Reworked autorename code. Catch SIGHUP signal Added missing file close to main loop Changed name of the "ask for action" command line flag to 'm', and used 'a' for 'Autorename'. v19951024 Removed infinite loop bug in hash.c, which occurred when the hash table was filled with deleted entries. v19951023 added Atari ST-style serial numbers (they live in the banner) fixed a troff bug in mtools.1 Both changes were suggested by D. Hugh Redelmeier (hugh@mimosa.com) v19950916 v2.5.3 released (after lots of fixes) v19950904 v2.5.2 released v19950904 mdir.c: initialized "files" and "blocks" to avoid complaint by GCC mattrib.c: initialized "code" to avoid complaint by GCC v19950904 Based on comments by Paul Slootman : init.c: fs_init(): initialized disk_size to 0. The section which previously initialized this is ifdef'd out. Why? Makefile, device.c: Passed ETCDIR (e.g. /etc or /etc/default) Gee, the Makefile is pretty ugly! It might be good to start thinking about autoconfigure, or at least some cleanup. Makefile, mformat.c: use -DSOLARIS2, use srand48()/rand48() msdos.h, file.c, mdir.c: prefixed YEAR/MONTH/DAY/HOUR/MINUTE/ SEC with DOS_ to avoid conflicts with on SVR4 devices.c: use %i instead of %d to allow different bases parse.c: Changed comment for get_name()/get_path(); need to revisit this after deciding on default case behavior devices.c: load_devices(): fixed bad fprintf, line 748 parse.c, mformat.c, misc.c: replaced expressions like "if (islower(foo)) foo=toupper(foo)" with "foo=toupper(foo)" v19950829 v2.5.1 released v19950829 Based on comments by Martin Kraemer : Bug fixes for compile errors and core dumps under SINIX-D 5.41 (Siemens SVR4): plain_io.c mk_direntry.c vfat.h v19950822 v2.5 released v19950820 DCN Change null-fill for unused remainder of VSE to 0xff fill for both upper and lower character (just one null for termination) This seems to better match Win95's behavior; Win95 had been complaining about bogus characters file_name.c: unicode_write() v19950820 DCN Commented out enforcement of VSEs being in order. Win95 likes to put them exactly backwards, so we'd better tolerate getting them any way they might come!
