This only lists changes that affect behavior, and so doesn't include cleanups of the source code. </p> <p> : </p> <p> default compile: </p> <blockquote> <p> <a href="v36.html#feature">New features</a> </p><p> <a href="v36.html#modified">Changed behavior</a> </p><p> <a href="v36.html#bugs">Bug fixes</a> </p> </blockquote> <p> not in default compile: </p> <blockquote> <p> <a href="v36.html#compile_feature">New features</a> </p><p> <a href="v36.html#compile_modified">Changed behavior</a> </p><p> <a href="v36.html#compile_bugs">Bug fixes</a> </p> </blockquote> <p> <a href="v36.html#build">Build System</a> </p> <p> : </p> <p> <a name="feature"> <b> New features in default compile </b> </a> </p> <!-- A new feature is something you would not notice if you used Mini vMac as you used it previously. If using it as you would previously would behave differently, that is "changed behavior". --> <!-- <p> * None Yet. </p> </p> --> <p> * The new &lsquo;P&rsquo; command of the Mini vMac <a href="../control.html#control_mode">Control Mode</a> copies to the clipboard (of the real computer, not the emulated computer) a string containing the options describing this variation of Mini vMac. </p> <p> * If the ROM image is not found in any of the locations that Mini vMac looks, the error can now be recovered from. You can drag the ROM image onto Mini vMac, and booting will resume. (Any of the methods that would normally mount a disk image will work to get the ROM, such as the Open dialog.) </p> <p> * The Cocoa version for OS X now looks for the ROM image in one additional place, &ldquo;/Library/Application Support/Gryphel/mnvm_rom/&rdquo;, which can be read by a Sandboxed application. To change &ldquo;/Library/&rdquo;, an administrative account is needed. (Sandboxing is off by default, there is a new build system option &ldquo;<a href="../options.html#option_sbx">-sbx 1</a>&rdquo;, to enable Sandboxing.) </p> <p> <a name="modified"> <b> Changed behavior in default compile </b> </a> </p> <!-- <p> * None Yet. </p> --> <p> * The version numbering scheme has changed. Instead of &ldquo;3.6.4&rdquo;, it is &ldquo;36.04&rdquo;. The distinction between major and minor version numbers has not been useful. Instead there is now a single branch number. This allows more bug fix releases (up to 99 instead of up to 9) without taking more space in the version string. </p> <p> * The Cocoa version for OS X is now normally signed with a certificate from Apple, so that the Gatekeeper feature of OS X will permit it to run by default. This was not done before because of some issues, and because those issues are still there, there is a new build system option &ldquo;<a href="../options.html#option_sgn">-sgn 0</a>&rdquo; to disable code signing. </p> <p> * The URL in the Mini vMac about message is now the main Gryphel Project page, rather than the Mini vMac page, mostly since it is shorter, in case anyone tries to type it in from here. </p> <p> * In the help screen (Control-H), and also the speed control screen (Control-S), there is now a single space after the letters on the left instead of two. </p> <p> * Mini vMac will no longer display &ldquo;Abnormal Situation&rdquo; reports, by default. There is a new build system option &ldquo;<a href="../options.html#option_abr">-abr 1</a>&rdquo; to enable them. </p> <p> <a name="bugs"> <b>
