NEW features of cdrtools-1.10a08:

We are now only a few releases away from the final libscg that includes
SCSI low level command transport.

cdrtools-1.10a04 added significant new features to the SCSI transport.
If you have wishes/hints for remote SCSI, please send me a mail.

All:

-       Seventh phase of libscg restructuring
        It seems that we don't need to change much anymore...

-       New changes to update the VMS support

-       VMS now supports ATAPI
        (Thanks to  Eberhard Heuser-Hofmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)

-       Libscg OS part for SunOS now compiles correctly even on SunOS-4.x

-       Makerule support for Win98 ME

-       Makerule support for Win NT-5.0 aka w2000

-       changed rules1.dir to circumvent a bug in bash-2.01

-       First Large File support tests in autoconf

-       includefiles & libschily restructured for largefile support.

        Please send me the first few lines of the autoconf output
        from OS different from Solaris & Linux. I am looking for
        peaple who are willing to help me with IRIX and AIX.

        NOTE: Linux supports the large file interface for some months but
                the ext2 filesystem does _not_ support large files.
                This is funny as the UNIX (4.2) Filesystem has been
                prepared for large file support ~ 20 years ago.

                As the NFSv3 support in Linux is buggy, it is unlikely
                that you will be able to use the large file support
                on Linux.

-       README.os2 gives a hint to the Joliet bug on OS/2

-       README.multi now has a hint about problems with multi-session
        and Joliet

-       README.linux now has a hint for the non existing binary comatibility
        on Linux. It has been added after a user reported that a binary
        cdrtools RPM for RH-6.2 did not run correctly on RH-6.2

Rscsi:

-       Noe using a autoconf test for socklen_t

Cdrecord:

Cdda2wav:

-       astoll() moved to libschily

Readcd:

Mkisofs:

-       mkisofs now also compiles without -DUSE_LIBSCG

-       -DNON_UNIXFS for VMS removed (need to check if it still compiles)

-       Include File structure completely rewritten.
        The old portability code from Eric now has been completely removed
        and replaced by reusable code snipplets in suportable incude files.
        This makes portability finally clean and is needed to add largefile
        support in the near future.

        Please test on all possible OS if I introduced problems.

TODO:
        -       better Rock Rodge recognition for multi-session

        -       read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
                or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer for this task:
                Peter Berendi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> announced that he likes
                to be the volounteer for this task.

        -       implement Yellow book compliant XA extended dir attributes

        -       add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.

        -       add UDF support

CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin32-beta20 and install it.
then create a symlink from /bin to the .../bin directory where bash is located.
Now run 'make' ...
For more information read README.win32

The files are located on:

ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord/alpha ...

NOTE:   These tar archives are 100% ansi compatible. Solaris 2.x tar and GNU
        tar may get some minor trouble.

WARNING: Do not use 'mc' to extract the tar file!
        All mc versions before 4.0.14 cannot extract symbolic links correctly.

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
        Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
