Log:

- 07/08:2005, version 3.9.6: roms
	Added count number of TiEmu VL instances so that read are non-blocking
	if the other side is not present.
	Automatically bind TiEmu to port #2 if port #1 is already in use.

- 29/07/2005, version 3.9.5: roms

	in ticables2).

- 22/07/2005: jb
	configure.ac: Generic fallback case for all Linux hosts.

- 20/07/2005, version 3.9.4: roms
	Fixed new gcc4.0 warnings.
	
- 12/07/2005, version 3.9.3: roms
	"Low-level access cable functions may be set to NULL on some cables: set to nul_cable instead."
		Done for the Gray Link !

- 25/05/2005, version 3.9.2: roms
	Removed AVRlink support (avoid clashing on exported baud_rate symbol).

- 15/05/2005, version 3.9.1: roms
	Fixed get_attributes for random permissions (backport of ticables2).

- 27/04/2005, version 3.9.0: roms
	Low-level access cable functions may be set to NULL on some cables: set to nul_cable instead.
	Merged Christian "Christian Walther" <cwalther@gmx.ch> patches for Mac OS-X.

- 05/03/2005, version 3.8.9: roms
	Added gcc 4.0 -fvisibility flag support.
	Fixed getting of current handle in VTi link support with MinGW.
	Fixed bug: no support of LINK_VTL under Linux (bad method).
	
- 09/02/2005, version 3.8.8: roms
	Some clean-up and fixes in the virtual link cables.
	Removed windows.h dependancy in timeout.h.
	Fixed some MinGw compilation issues.

- 25/09/2004, version 3.8.7: roms
	Added USB direct cable support (kernel module).
	Added USB direct cable support (lib-usb).
	
- 11/06/2004, version 3.8.6: jb
	Added support for x86-64 (configure.ac, configure).

- 22/05/2004, version 3.8.6: roms
	Bug fixes from JB: buffer overflow in linux_detect.c, NULL functions
	with direct link support.
	
- 05/05/2004, version 3.8.5: roms
	Bug fix in the verbose.c compatibility support (DISPLAY).
	Merged Tijl's patch: does not build or use libusb support if libusb
	not detected.
	link_dfl changed into link_nul (null cable). Added null method and null
	port in order to implement a pure null cable.
	Default settings are now set to a null cable/port.
	
- 24/04/2004, version 3.8.4: roms
	Added buffered write support to the SilverLink / Win32 module. 
	Driver 3.0.2.1 is needed. Tested with various transfers.

- 21/04/2004, version 3.8.3: roms
	Added full/partial BUFFERED_W (heuristic) support to get the best of
	both worlds ! Tested with group, idlist, clock, backup, 
	FLASH apps (s/r), ROM dump and FLASH os.
	This really speed-up FLASH app transfer (sending).
	Done the same work for tiglusb kernel module support. This stuff will 
	be moved into the module later...
	
- 17/04/2004, version 3.8.2: roms
	Bug in lib-usb support: wrong timeout passed to libusb (1/10 of
	value) => short timeout !
	Discovered the same bug in tipar/tiser/tiusb kernel module !

	Note: USB support default behaviour is: BUFFERED_R=1 & BUFFERED_W=0.
	Using BUFFERED_W make FLASH sending faster but communication is less 
	reliable.
	
- 08/04/2004, version 3.8.1: roms
	Redirection of stdout/stderr.
	Weird: we were using tilp/ticable.h. It should be linux/ticable.h.
	In fact, modules use tilp/ but built-in uses linux/.
	Modules will be modified to linux/.
	
- 22/03/2004, version 3.8.0: roms
	Splitted sources according to target and cables.
	Tested under Linux with:
	- GreyLink: api: ok
	- BlackLink: asm: ok, ioctl: ok, module: ?? 
	- SilverLink: ioctl: ok, module: ok
	- Parallel: asm: ??, module: ??
	Wake-up sequence removed from serial & parallel cables because it 
	perturbates communication start-up.
	
	Beware: Mac OS-X support has been moved to the new architecture but 
	has not been compiled !!!

	Bug in serial link support (mode asm: no timeout on ser_get).
	Bug in parallel link support (mode asm: no timeout on par_get).

	Added ability to immediately flush log file to disk.

	ugl_link: libusb support tested.
	
- 26/12/2001, version 3.0.3:
	Removed DLPortIO for PortTalk (www.beyondlogic.org) which brings about
	more advantages: source code available, smaller, faster, ...
	tig_probe implemented.
	
- 24/12/2001, version 2.2.5 -> 3.0.2:
	I have swapped ticable_set_param and ticable_set_param2 for JB.
	Error code values changed.
	I have changed the naming scheme about the LinkCable structure.
	I have cleaned up the source code.
	Moved pause.h from libticables to libticalcs.
	
- 21/12/2001, version 2.2.4 -> 3.0.1:
	I have changed my motherboard (SiS + Duron800MHz) which have been
	broken by my brother. I have finished the I/O management.
	ugl_link.c: libusb and kernel module support splitted.
	Compiled and fixed for Win32.
	
- 18/12/2001, version 2.2.3 -> 3.0.0:
	I have increased the major number: I have planned many enhancements, 
	modifications, clean-up, ...
	
	I/O management and probing improved.
	I have added 2 new functions: ticable_init & ticable_exit. The first 
	one is primarily used for detecting & listing available I/O routines.
	This version is still backward compatible if the 
	ticable_get_default_param function is called (and it should be...).
	
- 17/12/2001, version 2.2.2:
	JB has written a support of the SilverLink (TIGL-USB) with the libusb.
	I have merged his patch.
	ticable_probe: I have added a check for mouse (no risk to hang up your
	mouse, at least under Linux).
	
- 11/12/2001, version 2.2.1:
	Consistency: ticable_set_param modified again: use a struct but
	ticable_set_param2 use a pointer on structure.
	
- 20/11/2001, version 2.2.0:
	Win32 projects are now distributed with source code.
	get_default_param returns a GreyTIGL link cable on COM2.
	
- 19/11/2001, version 2.1.9:
	French PO files have been updated (i18n).
	Tested under WindowsXP with success ! WindowsXP seems to be a NT based
	system rather than a Windows9x/Me system.
	
- 17/11/2001, version 2.1.8:
	Recompiled under Win32.
	
- 15/11/2001, version 2.1.7:
	Consistency: ticable_set_param use a pointer on struct now.

	warnings fixed.
	
- 23/10/2001, version 2.1.4:
	A bug fix in par_link/ser_link: TiLP crashes when a normal user try to
	directly use a parallel/serial link cable.
	
- 19/10/2001, version 2.1.3:
	Updated to Am/Ac2.52: configure.in renamed into configure.ac.
	
- 18/10/2001, version 2.1.2:
	Some missing error codes have been added.
	
- 17/10/2001, version 2.1.1:
	Logging mechanism improved (logging.*).
	After some tests, it seems that transfer are more reliable if we
	send byte per byte rather than per packet. I think (an hypothesis) that
	we should not try to get data if link cable's buffer does not contain
	data.
	By sending byte per byte, we ensure a fast reply of the calc and so
	we ensure that link cable's reading buffer are not empty.
	
- 16/10/2001, version 2.1.0:
	TIGL-USB Linux support improved. There is still one problem: receiving
	variables by block crashes. Else, all other things work (ready, screen,
	send vars, backup, ...)
	
- 13/10/2001, version 2.0.9:
	I have written the TIGL-USB Linux support for testing the device
	driver.
	Read & write operations are buffered.
	The TIGL-USB Linux kernel driver works fine but it is a bit slow...

- 12/10/2001, version 2.0.8:
	The TIGL-USB Win32 kernel driver works fine now. I have merged Win32
	support. Note: this version is not very clean because it includes
	some kernel definitions & exports as well as a DDK library.
	To do: write a DLL front-end and package it.
	The library manages only 1 USB link cable. A future version will be
	able to manage up to 4 USB link cables.
	
- 06/10/2001, version 2.0.7:
	The TIGL-USB Win32 kernel driver is under development.
	
- 30/09/2001, version 2.0.6:
	The TIGL-USB linux kernel driver works ! JB has chosen the 
	following nodes: /dev/usb/tigl[0-15] so I have modified the lib
	consequently.
	
- 29/09/2001, version 2.0.5:
	TIGL-USB support added.
	
- 17/09/2001, version 2.0.4:
	Routines for probing ports/cables have been fixed (many bugs under 
	Linux).
	Thing to fix: if a mouse is connected on a serial port, the probing
	routine hang-up the mouse...
	Anyways, these routines need to be cleaned, improved and securized.
	
- 14/09/2001, version 2.0.3:
	The test program have been tested on Win32 platforms.
	I have added a check in ticable_set_cable: user is informed if he
	tries to use a port which is not compatible with the cable.
	The cabl_int.h file has been completed. It contains now all exported
	functions.
	I have removed many warnings under MSVC (none to level3).
	
- 13/09/2001, version 2.0.2:
	I have tested the library under Win32 (9x/NT).
	The library is now stable and clean.
	Doc has not been updated yet.
	Headers are now C++ compliant (extern "C").
	Thomas Wolf <two@chello.at> has written a BCC32 v5.x (or C++Builder5+)
	wrapper for the libticables. He has also bring about some modifications
	to the libticables that I have merged.
	
- 12/09/2001, version 2.0.1:
	I have widely cleaned up I/O management, interface and headers.
	I have also removed old routines.
	
- 11/09/2001, version 2.0.0: compatibility broken -> v2.x.x
	library is now easier to use: simply pass the port to use (a name)
	and the lib find device name & address.
	The library is backward compatible with programs which use the old
	library. Nethertheless, programs need to be recompiled.
	
- 10/09/2001, version 1.8.5: a bug fix in the dev string (too short).
	Some modifications for making the lib easier to use.
	The test_libticables program has been updated.

- 24/06/2001, version 1.7.9: dev_link.c unit slightly modified.
	
- 14/06/2001, version 1.7.8: a pb of TIPAR_DELAY/TIMEOUT fixed when we compile with the 'tiser' kernel module support.
	
- 02/06/2001, version 1.7.7: some functions for managing raw access have been added as well as functions for checking sending/receiving. They have been added for making easy emulator support which can require a direct access.
	
- 19/05/2001, version 1.7.6: VTi link support improved and modified. TIEmulator virtual link re-implemented under Win32. Some code have been cleaned.
	
- 08/05/2001, version 1.7.5: VERSION symbol changed due to some interactions under Win32 compiler.
	
- 07/05/2001, version 1.7.4: TiEmulator and generic virtual links improved: the Linux part of the tie_link has moved into the vti_link and the Linux part of the vtl_link has been copied into the tie_link.
	
- 01/05/2001, version 1.7.3: serial/BlackLink routines modified (test by FlashZ in progress...).
	
- 31/03/2001, version 1.7.2: library interface modified but still compatible.
Win32 DCB method access used for GreyTIGL and BlackLink. Linking routines taken from Rusty Wagner's VTi. The fastAVRlink routines have been also modified on the same template as the GreyTIGL routines. Kernel module managemement improved.
