This file documents recent changes to MRsoftware's MRTape-Handler. Changes are listed in reverse chronological order. 11/11/93, V1.17 ============= Bug Fixes ============= There was a very serious problem with the mrtape-handler, when run in synchronous mode, which could cause a short read on the last block before a tape mark. The bug was probably introduced in version 1.15 or 1.16 and is fixed in this release. 10/16/93, V1.16 ============= Bug Fixes ============= With the advent of AmigaDOS 2.1, an attempt to access the tape drive when no tape was inserted resulted in a crash. MRTape was returning the status code "ERROR_NO_DISK_INSERTED" which caused the system to attempt some kind of error recovery (speculation on my part - the system followed up the failed ACTION_FIND_INPUT with an ACTION_CURRENT_VOLUME packet). I would like to spend more time investigating this but frankly, I don't have _any_ free time. So, for now, I've modified the handler to return one of MRTape's own special error codes: MRTAPE_ERR_NO_TAPE (2003). 03/18/93, V1.15 =========== Changes =========== -- When the tape handler is closed, the tape is now automatically rewound in "immediate" mode. The user does not have to wait for the rewind to complete. ============= Bug Fixes ============= -- The tape handler would not rewind when invoked as MRTape:A.
