Changed behavior in default compile
* Mini vMac will now check if a disk image that is being mounted looks like a Macintosh disk image format (HFS or MFS), and if not decline to mount it, showing an error message. This helps prevent accidentally corrupting other files, especially when using ImportFl.
But there are some other disk image formats that you might want to mount, such as Fat16 and ISO (which can be used by the emulated Macintosh with additional software). Or, you may be trying to create your own new disk image and want the emulated Macintosh to initialize it. In these cases you can use a version of Mini vMac compiled with the new “-ndp 0” option to turn off this protection.
If a Branch option prior to 37 is chosen for compatibility with an earlier version, the default is “-npd 0”, and you can use “-npd 1” to turn on this protection.

Changed behavior not in default compile
* The new “-lto” option provides alternative transport for LocalTalk emulation. In addition to Mike Fort’s original code for LocalTalk over BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter), there is new code from Rob Mitchelmore for LocalTalk over UPD (User Datagram Protocol), that does not require setup or administrative privileges. The new UPD option is now the default for branch 37. If a prior “-br” (Branch) option is chosen for compatibility with an earlier version, the default is BPF.
Bug fixes not in default compile
* The built in disassembler (enabled with “-dis 1”) incorrectly handled the BCHG/BCLR/BSET/BTST instructions. Thanks to Ryan for this fix.
* None Yet.
