Short: V2.8 - Extended Serial Preferences for Wb. Author: Lorenzo Succi Uploader: lsucci@iper.net Type: util/sys Replaces: util/sys/SerialPrefs27.lha V2.8 (09/06/97), replace older Wb serial preferences. Features: o Data length setup 5/6/7/8/16/32 bit (instead of 7/8 bit). o Baud speed max 115200 (instead of 31250 baud). o The Ram buffer I/O can be setted from 512 bytes to 512 Kb. o The version of serial device is displayed on the program. o Reset function to return in standard configuration. o Balance function of control data and space buffers for Input and Output. History: V2.8 (09/06/1997) * The baud rate can be setted as do you want (10-115200 bauds), manually or via slider. * Is now possible the setup of the space buffers I/O (0.5-512 Kb), manually or via sliders. * Added the balance function of Input/Output of the data control and space buffers. * Reorganized some routines. V2.7.1 (04/05/1997) * The length of data transmitted can be setted as well at 16 bit or 32 bit. * Added the baud speeds of 16800/28800/48000/91200/103200 baud rate. * Modifyed the sintax of tooltypes. The PERCBAR tooltype is removed. * The "Load as" function search now the preference file in the envarc:sys/ directory. * Solved the problem of loading the program from CLI. V2.6 (16/03/1997) * Added a iconify function on menu. * Output buffer (Kb) and output handshake (Control mode) are as Input buffer/handshake. * Changed the range of baud speed; now is from 110 to 115200. * Optimized the code. * Rewrited the documentation in AmigaGuideŽ format. * Added a installer programs. V2.5.2 (08/03/1997) * Optimized the routine of control of baud rate and memory buffer. * Added a tooltype: PERCBAR=ON/OFF. ON=display the percentages of the use of baud rate and memory buffer. * The number of the unit can be setted from 0 to 255. V2.5.1 (26/02/1997) * Fixed a stupid small bug in the v2.5 relative at the initial check of the program. V2.5 (24/02/1997) * Upgraded the interface control. * Display the percentage of use of buffer and baud rate. * Reduced of 15% the height of the window. * Modified the baud range (110-65535). V2.4 (25/11/1996) * Added a icon-tooltype: SENSITIVE=ON/OFF. ON= the interface use the system font, OFF= the interface use the topaz 8 font. V2.3 (21/11/1996) * Fixed a bug relative at the close-gadget (this little bug causes the crash in some machines). * Added a commands keys in the menu. * Added a keyboard commands (return=Use, Esc=quit). * Optimized some routines. V2.2 (07/11/1996) * Added the speeds 110/300/1200 baud. * Fixed definitively the precedent patch up "Load as..." function. * Enhanced the serial unit number (0-10). * Optimized some routines. V2.1 (13/10/1996) * Fixed a stupid bug in the v2.0 (if you load, for error, a not-config file, the program crashes.) * Added a control up the serial preferences file. * Added a control up the presence of serial.device. V2.0 (11/10/1996) * Interface redesigned. * Maked a check-point (click up the logo to activate), where comes displayed the serial speed in baud, buffer memory in bytes and serial.device version. V1.0 (23/09/1996) * The first public version. See the documentation for more infos.
