New in BDDE V1.1b: ------------------ - BDDE incorrectly complains about an invalid number of files when erased files are present on disk. This error had no major implications. - The registered version now recognizes all interleaves up to 7:1. Newer versions of Anadisk sort the sectors on ID, thus effectively creating an interleave of 1:1. - Automatic interleave detection can be overridden by the -i option. Valid arguments are -i1, -i3, -i5 and -i7. The -i option fixes the interleave and disables automatic correction. HanSoft & Partners 18/06/92 New in BDDE V1.2a: ------------------ - A serious error occurred when the translation from BetaDisk filename to DOS- or Unix-filename resulted in an empty string. This prevented the file from being extracted. Now 'noname' is assigned to these files. - When the automatic DATA type detection failed a BASIC file was written instead of a CODE file. - The -H0 option replaces the -r option. -H1 (default) writes a RS232 header; -H2 writes a tapeheader. Experimental version in preperation of Atari-ST emulator support. HanSoft & Partners 27/08/92 New in BDDE V1.2c: ------------------ - If a target-directory was specified, the 'noname' assignment failed. Again, the file would not be written. Filename translation is now more solid. Case- sensitive filenames in Unix-version have been dropped; now all filenames are converted to lower case in both DOS- and Unix-versions. - A trailing separator can be added to the target-directory. - Atari-ST emulator support is complete. Spectrum-filenames in tapeheader and DOS/Unix filenames are now synchonized. Changed -Hx option to -Cx option. - All documentation now available in English. - Registrated version now Ÿ 7.50 or 7.00 DM. HanSoft & Partners 24/09/92 New in BDDE V1.3c: ------------------ - Complete SpecEM (another Spectrum Emulator by Kevin Phair) support by adding -C3 option. - Registered version now prints autoRUN linenumber. - In earlier versions BDDE incorrectly complained about BASIC-files that allocated too many sectors. This has been corrected. - BDDE now reports when a file has to be renamed when switching to 'tempnames' filename generation. - A distinction is made between character- and number DATA-files before the filename is generated. This was necessairy for SpecEm-type filename generation but has also been added to the Lunter conversion. - Adding support for other emulators has been significantly simplified. HanSoft & Partners 27/10/92 New in BDDE V1.4a: ------------------ - Added .TAP file support for Z80 V2.x emulator by Gerton Lunter by adding -C4 option. DISABLED IN SHAREWARE VERSION. - Added BetaDisk+ snapshot detection. - Added support for interleave 2:1, 4:1, 6:1 and 8:1 - File allocation error did not allow stringing .TAP files together. This has been permanently fixed. - Registered version now Dfl. 10.00 or 10.00 DM. HanSoft & Partners 17/09/93 New in BDDE V1.5c: ------------------ - Added several functions to monitor BDDEs internals. - Added K&R C support. - Syntax drastically changed to accomodate several new features. - Added conditional extraction. - Added '-l' option to make constructing listfiles easier. - Added listfiles. DISABLED IN SHAREWARE VERSION. - Added BDDEINIT- and BDDE-variables. - Added automatic and manual initialization files. - BDDE can now also read raw dumps (without sector headers). - BDDE now checks whether the file is a valid dump. - BDDE now also available under Coherent V4.2. Should work with SCO Unix. - Registered version now Dfl. 12.50 or 10.00 DM. HanSoft & Partners 22/08/94
