I have completed today Version 2.07 of my DVI driver family,
and updated all the source directories on SCIENCE.UTAH.EDU.
Although this version supports one new device, and enhances
the support for another, it does not provide any substantial
change for users, so sites which have already received
Version 2.06 should not feel compelled to do an immediate
upgrade.
The major changes are as follows:
* support for the KCC-20 compiler on TOPS-20;
* addition of a driver, DVIL75, for the DEC LA75
printer (thanks to John Sauter for this);
* substantially enhanced BBN BitGraph driver:
** instant keyboard response during screen
update to support rapid screen
repositioning and document skimming
** large characters now sent as downloaded fonts
instead of being sent as raster bitmaps
** zoom up and down in magnification
** coarse and fine control of screen positioning
** now works with both white and black backgrounds
** character overwrite at right margin no
longer happens (appears to be a BitGraph
internal bug)
* addition of a public-domain version of the Unix
Version 7 MAKE utility which supports six (yes, 6)
different operating systems (sources on
APS:<TEX.PUB.MAKE>), and Makefile's now used for
building the driver family on all supported machines;
* updated, extended, and INDEXED installer's manual
(dvidriver.*) (95 pages)
* dvijep (HP LaserJet Plus) now handles characters
too large to be sent as downloaded fonts
* BSD 4.1 core-dump-at-exit bug fixed (the bug was
in BSD, NOT the drivers)
If you wish to retrieve these via Internet ANONYMOUS FTP,
get the file 00README.TXT first; it tells where to find
everything else.
