I hope it will work with every card now.* The low level layer of the store has been revamped. This should fix the data corruption bug.* The cache (or rather the caches) have been implemented. There is an interface to change their size.* ATA Support now has preferences (basically for the cache sizes).ATA Support 0.1a2* Seven bugs in the store model (the database engine) have been fixed. * The name of the stores now appear properly (instead of [n/a: error]). * Tapping on the "Card" icon now shows all the card slips and generates an error message only if there is no recognized card. * The ATA card slip can now be moved. * The graphical interface no longer throws -8007 errors (nil view). * The machine type wasn't tested because of a bug (that's why the previous version could be installed on any 2.x machine) * The software should run on every Newton with NOS 2.x (thanks to Frank GrŸndel, Harri Hohteri, Carsten Lemmen, Brian McEwen and Konstantinos Xonis) * The core was simplified and is now in one part instead of two (since the core is copied in RAM, this reduces the both the storage space and the memory space required for the software). * The interface between the native code called from NewtonScript and the core is now done via a P-Class (a protocol). This reduces the (rather small) risk of a semaphore conflict with the virtual memory. * The recognition phase generates a log which can be exported to the notes. ## ============================================================================== #### Fortune suggests uses for YOUR favorite UNIX commands! #### #### Try: #### ar t "God" #### drink < bottle; opener (Bourne Shell) #### cat "food in tin cans" (all but 4.[23]BSD) #### Hey UNIX!
