Changelog

V1.3'

  • Added memory snapshots.
  • Added auto-load of AUTO snapshot.
  • Added save/load of keyboard mappings.
  • Added ability to SAVE from BASIC.
  • Increased maximum number of files to 1024 in selector.
  • Forty Niner still goes mental, so there's still an emulation bug somewhere.

V1.2a

  • Made file selector filter case-insensitive.

V1.2

  • Controlled version of keyboard fix.
  • Added seperate ARM7/ARM9 code so I could use Wifi to use a web server as a file store. Wifi lib doesn't work with my access point, so reverted to a simpler ARM9 build. Which has made a merry mess of the CVS repository.
  • Compiled with newer version of libfat so that the DLDI interfaces can be used (thanks Chism!) At last I can load ZX81 programs into my own damned emulator! Moved to R20 of the toolchain and the new libnds.
  • Added support for text mode underlayed with a rotation screen for bitmap purposes.
  • Added code to ZX81 emulation to notice changes to I register and search for hires display files. Works for a lot of hires games, though needs proper display emulation for Manic Miner, so that won't work
  • Improved speed of hi-res code.
  • Fixed attempted load in ZX81SNAP -- the FAT libs seem to want UNIX style directory seperators.
  • Added file selector with LOAD "*"
  • Handling of 1K display files is a bit better.
  • Added option for RAM in place of ROM mirror.
  • Changed lower screen to 8-bit deep so I can overlay a tiled mode.
  • Added lower screen console routines.
  • Added Machine Code Monitor.

V1.1a (uncontrolled release)

  • Fixed hideous mess up that was the keyboard fix.

V1.1

  • Added external FAT file loading.
  • Added Mazogs as a built-in tape (code courtesy of Paul Fearnley)
  • Fixed bug where the ROM input routine could be easily locked up. This was caused by a problem in the way I set up the LASTK system variables from the house-keeping routine.
