AROS Update
From November, 3rd 2000 to November, 19th 2000
following information about the evolution of this AmigaOS compatible
open source OS have been added to the AROS homepage.
Joerg Dietrich added a ppm.datatype for PPPM graphics, and the
dtdesc tool. This tool allows to create and analyse datatype
descriptions. Georg Steger used it to improve the FTXT datatype.
The binary.datatype has been ported back to AmigaOS V3.5 by Joerg Dietrich.
Tobias Seiler fixed a long standing bug in the keyboard initialization of AROS
Native/i386, so PS/2 keyboards should work now.
Georg Steger first added a port of reqtools.library, and then ported more and
more programs which use Reqtools and fixed a lot of bugs in the code. The port
of Reqtools should be finished, soon. He finished gadtools.library. He also
committed rewritten routines for the DOS functions MatchFirst(), MatchNext(),
and MatchEnd(). These should work in all cases, now. This fixes all the related
bugs, like List C:. He also fixed some bugs in the
graphics.library-to-HIDD driver and the workbench.library as well as renamed
the OO Routines into something more easily distinguishable from BOOPSI (the
OO system also used DoMethod(), etc. which could cause confusions).
Johan Alfredsson worked on DOS commands (Info, Status, Execute, Which) and
fixed a lot of bugs in the dos.library. He ported the C:Search utility written
by Neil Cafferkey to AROS.
He added the nvdisk.library. He added and finished the nonvolatile.library.
