- Post-processing of disk-hosted ROMs such as FZ80 and ZRC has been modified to handle custom user configurations.
- Standardized all distribution ROM names to end in _std.
- Modified SD driver to keep SD card clock consistently fast after card init. This only seemed to effect a Lexar 32GB uSD Card on CSIO interface. Thanks and credit to Richard Deane for reporting this.
- Improved hard disk layout documentation.
- ROM Applications document has been consolidated into the Applications document
- Martin has done a significant overhaul of the Applications document

Update CLRDIR with minor update from the author Max Scane to emphasize the need to type a capital Y to proceed. Thanks and credit to Max Scane for this application.
Adds CLRDIR to the Applications document.
- This change avoids clearing the screen every time an OS reset occurs. A non-destructive VDC reset is now performed that leaves the screen contents and cursor position unchanged.
- If an application overwrites the video RAM, then the screen may contain garbage upon return to OS. However, the console will still be functional and the user can just press enter a few times to clear the screen.
Correct obsolete reference to DiskList.txt in the ReadMe.txt file in the Binary Directory.
Thanks and credit to @shawnshekari (issue #390) for reporting this.
- Generic serial interface client support files have been added. This mode of operation is not documented in the RomWBW User Guide. Refer to <https://github.com/durgadas311/cpnet-z80>.
- Minor patch to NULU so it does not spit out a directory listing every time it is invoked.
Based on input from Martin R, the console takeover mechanism has been modified to require that the space bar be pressed twice in a row on the character unit desiring to be the console. This reduces the chance of a spurious console takeover due to garbage input on serial ports.
- If enabled by AUTOCON config setting, you can press <space> at any character device to take over the console at the boot loader prompt.
- Correction to SIOSEEK documentation in System Guide. Thanks and credit to Martin R.
- 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.
