- Rearranged HBIOS code to improve colocation of related code.
- Implemented macros to improve control over assembly diagnostic output.
- Improved handling of diagnostic LEDs.
- Improved application boot bank management.
- Implemented application boot for Z280 systems.
- Moved Z280_BNKSEL into proxy.
-
- Modified TMS driver to always imbed an uncompressed font. This is because I have found no reasonable way to decompress a font while an OS is still active without mangling some of the OSes RAM.
- Minor doc updates
- Comment updates in ansi.asm and tms.asm
- Correction to build process for ROMless systems
- Fix for ZRC (default configuration) to use all available RAM
- Last check-in had a couple of config file errors which are corrected here.
- Also updated Appendix A of the User Guide to reflect new CH37x port addressing.
- Credit and thanks to Martin R for providing a substantial list of suggested fixes and improvements to the User Guide. I have done my best to address them -- others will require more time and will hopefully be addressed in the future.
- Detect CTS at startup to ensure it is asserted. If not, disable hardware flow control to avoid stalling the console at boot. Only for UART driver because this is the only place it is currently relevant.
- The naming of ZZRCC was incorrectly ZZRC. Corrected.
- Max Scane has provided a small bug fix for CLRDIR.
- Minor build updates for new HTalk utility.
- Based on reports from Martin R, the FDC detection algorithm has been updated to try reading the FDC MSR register twice to try and get the desired value of 0x80.
- Dan Werner's ESP board for Duodyne is working well, so the default Duodyne config has been changed to automatically detect this board.
The EtchedPixels floppy disk controller is known by the identifier
'FDMODE_EPFDC', but the comments in the Config subdirectory have an
incorrect reference to 'EPWDC'. This fix updates the comments to use the
correct name.
