IDEDOS 20070919 (0.90 patch 35)

What's new?

• Optimized PC64 pclink transfer
  Ca. 1.5x save and 1.2x load speed.
  
• Manager and setup keep PA2 high on user port
  PC64 ideserv was using 100% cpu when the manager or setup was active
  
• Better device detection
  Some devices failed to be detected, especially on poweron.
• 2048 byte dir bug on CD
  The directory listing was messed up when the directory fully filled up a sector.
• Wait on drive to become ready after disk insert
  IDEDOS could already automatically close the CD tray on access, but then usually a drive not ready error came. Not anymore.
• Caching of tree path
  Big files (500K+) can have deep tree stucture for indexing on CFS. Now only the last few sectors are read, the rest of the tree is cached. Slightly faster seeking and sequential read.
  
• PC64 slow transfer mode
  Special protocol for PC64 cables without the FLAG line. Slightly slower (ca. 0.8x) read performance. Needs new ideserv.
• Manually restorable freeze/zero points in monitor
  Normally freeze and zero points are restored when they are executed. Now it's possible to remove them.
• SCPU optimization toggle works now
  The control+leftarrow combination is not disabled anymore when the function keys are active.
• Monitor screen remembered
  The monitor screen is remembered across invocations. Can be used as a notepad.
  

Also the IDE64 user's guide was updated to reflect the changes.
