**	N	:	New	**	F	:	Feature	**	B	:	Bugfix	**
**************************************************************************************************
**	Version 1	N	Basic implementation: parallel, Amigawin and PI/T B		**
**	10-sep-95										**
**												**
**	Rev 1		N	ARexx port implemented						**
**	23-sep-95	F	Public port is removed when in shutdown, waiting for 		**
**				timerequests to complete. This should avoid unnecessary		**
**				LCDERR_TOOBUSY replies: the applications will fail at		**
**				the SafePutToPort() level.					**
**												**
**	Rev 2		N	Arexx functions 'getcharacters'	and 'getlines' (beta)		**
**	24-sep-95										**
**												**
**	Rev 3		B	Fixed string length bug in Arexx command parser that		**
**	22-oct-95		caused weird system instability.				**
**												**
**	Rev 4		B	Fixed bug in replying to functions (rev 2)			**
**	4-nov-95	N	Changed to GST files for speedy compilation			**
**												**
**	9-nov-95	N	Completed AmigaGuide documentation for "manual" Aminet		**
**				upload at Kölner Messe.						**
**												**
**	7-jan-96	F	Added support for CHARACTERS=20 (since I just finished		**
**				a board using a 20-char 2-lines backlighting display I		**
**				bought at the Kölner Messe)					**
**				Aminet upload (see 9-nov-95) has been posponed due to		**
**				interest shown by Amiga Magazin.)				**
**												**
**	Rev 5		B	Fixed misunderstanding in DDRAM address mapping for		**
**	14-jul-96		2-line displays when using GOTOXY				**
**			N	Renewed screen update routine, necessary for			**
**				programmable character support					**
**			F	Start of programmable charater support, requested		**
**				by various people after the Amiga Shopper appearance		**
**				and Aminet release						**
**												**
**	Rev 6											**
**	20-jul-96	N	Programmable character support is implemented through use of	**
**				the LCD_ALLOCATEHANDLE interface.				**
**												**
**	Rev 7		N	Added a driver for the MFC II 's port 0. Driver specific	**
**	1-sep-96		options are now configured using the "startup" field		**
**			F	The window title of the lcd_ami driver can now be set using	**
**				the startup field.						**
**	Rev 8		N	Support for displays with a width of 24 characters		**
**	13-oct-96	N	Driver for the Multifacecard 3					**
**			B	Made a little more robust when echoing extremely long		**
**				texts to the display. This is still not recommended, though!	**
**												**
