Solaris by calling one A: and the other B:
Add missing mbadblock LINK in Makefile.in
960527Inserted missing newline character

Geometry setting for HP/UX
960522Changed auto array in codepage to malloc'ed one in order to
work around buggy compilers
OSF ALPHA devices

951209MTOOLS_LOWER_CASE is back, various small bug fixes over
Tuesday's changes
951205Bus strike in Grenoble! Well, let's do something useful and
re-arrange the configuration file syntax :-)
The syntax has become much more flexible now, and also
includes items which used to be only accessible via
environmental variables.
Moreover, it is now possible to include character translation
tables in line.
951126Fixed another Atari disk bug: Atari disks sport a bogus
"number of hidden sectors"
951125Fixed missing zero-terminator in autorenamed long names
MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK now implies MTOOLS_FAT_COMPATIBILITY.
951124Fixed small quoted-printable-induced typo in the Makefile.
<rant>
Folks, please don't use quoted-printable. It sometimes changes
the CONTENT of your messages. Even the MIME RFC's acknowledge this.
Case in point: □00 gets transformed into =A3400, which looks
like 3400 pounds to a person unaware of this MIME "feature".
</rant>
951123Mformat now puts a 12 bit FAT on ED to better match Messy DOS'
behavior.
951115Added ability to do mcopy e: to copy all files from the root
directory of e:
New Xdf-less Linux target in the Makefile
Relaxed sanity check to let pass wonky Atari disks whose FAT
begins with 3 zero bytes.
Make the check of the initial fat bytes conditional on
mtools_skip_check

Ability to mformat 2m disks
951107Xdf bug fix (dev parameters always set to Xdf, even if it

the last.
Centralizing most env-var handling.
Update of the mtools manpage.
Xdf is now optional, and only active if MTOOLS_USE_XDF is
set. Saves a few milliseconds of startup time on non Xdf
disks.
Some lawyer-proofing, just in case :)
951106Fast xdf code (finally!)
Minor performance enhancements here and there.
Names which are all lower case now generate a long name entry
(according to Steve Searle, that's how Win'95 behaves).

951026Put restrictions on long names to better match Win'95.
(suggested by Steve Searle)
Reworked autorename code. Catch SIGHUP signal
Added missing file close to main loop
Changed name of the "ask for action" command line flag to 'm',

951023added Atari ST-style serial numbers (they live in the banner)
fixed a troff bug in mtools.1
Both changes were suggested by D. Hugh Redelmeier (hugh@mimosa.com)
950916v2.5.3 released (after lots of fixes)
950904v2.5.2 released
950904mdir.c: initialized "files" and "blocks" to avoid complaint by GCC
mattrib.c: initialized "code" to avoid complaint by GCC
950904Based on comments by Paul Slootman <paul@ahwau.ahold.nl>:
init.c: fs_init(): initialized disk_size to 0.  The section
which previously initialized this is ifdef'd out.  Why?
Makefile, device.c: Passed ETCDIR (e.g. /etc or /etc/defaults)
Gee, the Makefile is pretty ugly!  It might be good to start
thinking about autoconfigure, or at least some cleanup.
Makefile, mformat.c: use -DSOLARIS2, use srand48()/rand48()
msdos.h, file.c, mdir.c: prefixed YEAR/MONTH/DAY/HOUR/MINUTE/
SEC with DOS_ to avoid conflicts with <sys/time.h> on SVR4
devices.c: use %i instead of %d to allow different bases
parse.c: Changed comment for get_name()/get_path(); need to
revisit this after deciding on default case behavior
devices.c: load_devices(): fixed bad fprintf, line 748
parse.c, mformat.c, misc.c: replaced expressions like
  "if (islower(foo)) foo=toupper(foo)" with "foo=toupper(foo)"

950829 v2.5.1 released

950829 Based on comments by Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@mch.sni.de>:
Bug fixes for compile errors and core dumps under SINIX-D 5.41
(Siemens SVR4):
plain_io.c
mk_direntry.c
vfat.h

950822 v2.5 released

950820 DCNChange null-fill for unused remainder of VSE to 0xff fill for
both upper and lower character (just one null for termination)
This seems to better match Win95's behavior; Win95 had been
complaining about bogus characters
file_name.c: unicode_write()

950820 DCNCommented out enforcement of VSEs being in order.  Win95 likes
to put them exactly backwards, so we'd better tolerate getting
them any way they might come!  Not sure what is lost by losing
these checks, but it seems to be OK.

directory.c: dir_read()
