       Development log.

       Read it.  You'll laugh.  You'll cry.  You'll hurl.


  7/95:     Released V9t9 v6.0!
            Added direct PIO support.
            Added breakpoints to debugger.
            Realized LPC speech sounds sorta good on faster systems.
  6/95:     Wrote a nice FORTH-based ROM to show off the emulator for        
                 those without ROMs.
  5/95:     Added v5.01 keyboard emulation option to keyboard to speed
                 it up.
            Moved ROM patching into the configuration file
  4/95:     Inserted my own joystick routines, speedup city.  See            
                 JOYSTICK.TXT for the gorey details.
  3/95:     Added LPC speech, which sounds very bad
            Finally made real speedups in text mode by creating a 386
                 version of the emulator.
  2/95:     Sped up video stuff with some tricky tricks
            Sped up slow rewrite of opcodes, but not enough
            Added 'cute' instructions-per-second counter
  1/95:     Added demonstration feature to emulator
            Added TI disk controller emulation (disk-on-a-disk)
            Rewrote opcodes, fixing some bugs I didn't know about
  12/94:    Sped up text mode
  11/94:    Added CALL COINC(ALL,n) support
            Added five-sprites-on-a-line check
            Tried to optimize sprite routines
  10/94:    Finally got a software license, renewed interest in              
            programming
  08/94:    Fixed bug in video unit (blank screen going into text mode)
            Rewrote keyboard unit yet again
            Rewrote debugger unit
  07/94:    Added cassette emulation (output only)
            Added noise!
            Prettied up the displays
            Rewrote keyboard unit to allow CRU access
            Added status page (Shift+Ctrl+F1)
            TI says included ROMs are illegal, requested info for license
  4/29/94:  TIEMUL v5.01 comes out with keyboard LED set removed to 'fix'
                 bug reports of locking up
            Sorta-major-bug-that-kept-RS232-routines-at-1200-baud fixed.
  4/24/94:  TIEMUL v5.0 comes out
  3/94:     Rewrote files unit completely, abandoned proprietary
                 v4.0 file format
            Added sketchy RS232 and PIO routines
            Fix s**tloads of bugs after getting e-mail about v4.0
  2/29/94:  TI Emulator v4.0 comes out to the 'Net!  Wackiness ensues.
            The TIREADME file still says "TI Emulator 386", because this
            was REALLY just a mock-up of TI Emulator 386.  (SEE!  It's
            a really long time between all the versions!)
  6/93:     TI Emulator 386 comes out on a local BBS.  Practically no        
            response.
