- Some newer/multi-port UART chips now use MCR:3 to activate the interrupt pin(s), otherwise tri-state. This update sets MCR:3 in all cases.
- Added UARTDUAL config variable that enables detection of a dual UART chip at 0x80 for MBC platform.
- Fixed a typo in TastyBasic Build script.
- Added TMSMODE_RCKBD to support an 8242 keyboard combined with TMS video.
- Worked around a syntax issue from uz80as in rz.asm.
- Improved mechanism to handle forcing a UART detection for SIMH.
- The UART driver has been enhanced to allow use of interrupt driven receive buffer and RTS flow control. It will only be used if enabled and the chip detected has no auto-flow control capability.
- Reorganized most of the "common" files into special directories.
- Fixed bug affecting application boot related to ROM checksum test.
- Added support for LiNC sound card at default port address.
- DSKYng now has same features as original DSKY including debug monitor
- Added support for MBS LEDs
- Elevated MBS to a platform instead of just a sub-config of SBC
- Allow any system timer to drive MKY interrupt, not just the TMS driver interrupt.
- Add a build check to ensure that when MKY is enabled, a system timer is also enabled.
Allow specifying a character code which, upon receipt, will reboot system. Only useful/implemented for interrupt driven serial drivers. Currently only implemented for ASCI and SIO. Do *not* use this unless you fully understand the ramifications!!!
Added BOOTCON config variable to allow setting the boot console device. This replaces FORCECON and removes the code that used to rearrange the PCINITTBL.
- Complete initial support for Karl's Z280 module w/ 512K RAM/ROM module
- Allow swapping Z180 serial ports via ASCISWAP config variable
- Fix Z180 include file per Issue #141 from J.B. Lang
New **experimental** adaptation of XModem called XMX.COM:
- Fixes occasional "stall" at startup (I think)
- Reduces HBIOS overhead substantially
- Automatically uses the console port no matter what COM port the console is on
- Minor config tweaks to TMS driver to formally support TMS9918 board from JB Lang on RC platform.
- Using MSX standard ports to allow use of card in Z180 systems.
