cdrtools/AN-3.02a07

***************** Important news ******************************

For the 'Slottable Source Plugin Module' SSPM Features read README.SSPM

***************** Please Test *********************************

NEW features of cdrtools-3.02a07:

This is the first localization step for cdrtools. All programs now (hopefully)
call gettext() for all strings that need localization.

-	The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries.

-	The following step will include the extracted strings

-	The last step will include German translations and install support
	for the resulting binary message object files.

----------> Please test and report compilation problems! <---------

***** NOTE: As mentioned since 2004, frontends to cdrtools should *****
*****		call all programs from cdrtools in the "C" locale *****
*****		by e.g. calling: LC_ALL=C cdrecord ....		  *****
*****		unless these frontends support localized strings  *****
*****		used by the cdrtools with NLS support.		  *****

This version compiles on Win-DOS using the Microsoft compiler cl.exe but
warning: due to missing POSIX compliance with basic features (e.g. stat()
does not return inode numbers), there are many problems with the resulting
code and thus it is recommended to better use a POSIX layer on top of 
WIN-DOS.

		*** WARNING        ***
		*** Need new smake ***

	*** Due to the fact that schily-2014-04-03 introduced to use new macro
	*** expansions and a related bug fix in smake, you need a new smake
	*** to compile this source. To ensure this, get a recent "schily"
	*** tarball from http://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/
	*** and call:

	cd ./psmake
	./MAKE-all
	cd ..
	psmake/smake
	psmake/smake install

	The new smake version mentioned above is smake-1.2.4.
	Note that smake-1.2.5 exists and is preferrable.

	Now you have a new smake that is able to compile this source.

	Note that the major makefile restructuring introduced in
	schily-2014-04-03 is now more than one month ago and thus seems
	to work without problems.

	WARNING: the new version of the isoinfo program makes use of the 
		*at() series of functions that have been introduced by Sun
		in August 2001 and added to POSIX.1-2008. For older platforms,
		libschily now includes emulations for these functions but
		these emulations have not yet been tested thoroughly.
		Please report problems!

	and report ERANGE

-	libschily/*printf.c now support a locale dependent decimal separator

-	libschily/format.c (the printf worker code) has been enhanced to
	be faster with STDIO on most platforms.

-	libschily: getargs, getallargs and getfiles man pages have been reworked

-	libschily/getargs.c: combined single char boolean flags now work
	with callback type formats.

Libdeflt:

Libedc (Optimized by J<>rg Schilling, originated by Heiko Ei<45>feldt heiko@hexco.de):

-	libedc_ecc_dec: Avoid an array out of bound subscription. Thanks to
	Heiko Ei<45>feldt for cheking the code after a compiler warning.

Libfile:

Libfind:

-	libfind: the code now supports the *BSD enhancement "d_ino" in struct dirent.
	This speeds up stat()less jobs.

Libhfs_iso:

Libmdigest:

Libparanoia (Ported/enhanced by J<>rg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):

Libscg:

Libscgcmd:

Libsiconv:

Rscsi:

Cdrecord:

Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by J<>rg Schilling, originated by Heiko Ei<45>feldt heiko@hexco.de):

-	cdda2wav: Many small rewrites from Heiko Ei<45>feldt, mainly to reduce the
	scope of variables and to correctly use the "%u" printf format for
	unsigned variables.

Readcd:

Scgcheck:

Scgskeleton:

Btcflash:

Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by J<>rg Schilling since 1997, originated by Eric Youngdale):

-	mkisofs/mac_label.c: fixed a file descriptor leak
	Thanks to heiko Ei<45>feldt for reporting.

-	mkisofs: Allow to compile the code again when USE_FIND APPLE_HFS_HYB
	APPLE_HYB UDF DVD_AUD_VID are not #define'd Thanks to a hint from
	Colin Finck <colin@reactos.org>

-	mkisofs: mkisofs -version now mentions James Pearson and HELIOS GMBH

-	mkisofs: the getvargs() call now honors the parameter order change in
	libschily::getvargs().

-	mkisofs: when stripping off "./" and "//" from graft points, mkisofs
	now uses ovstrcpy() that supports to copy overlapping strings as Mac OS
	has a strlcpy() that fails with overlapping strings.
	Thanks to a hint from Colin Finck <colin@reactos.org>

-	mkisofs: the function prototype readsecs() is now available even when
	USE_SCG is not defined.
	Thanks to a hint from Colin Finck <colin@reactos.org>

-	mkisofs: The option -no-cache-inodes is available again in all compile
	versions.

-	mkisofs: Some unused variables have been removed.

-	mkisofs: New option -isort behaves like -sort but ignores the case of
	filenames in the sort file.

-	mkisofs: new option -hide-ignorecase allows to ignore case with the 
	-hide* options and with -exclude-list

-	mkisofs: New option -no-allow-lowercase allows to revert the effect to
	-allow-lowercase from macro options like -untranslated-filenames or
	-iso-level 4

-	mkisofs: New option -duplicates-once to hard link identical files even
	on non POSIX platforms.
	The code was modeled similar to the code from
	Alex Kopylov cdrtools@bootcd.ru but better fits into the idea of 
	current versions of mkisofs

-	mkisofs: defaults.h no longer sets the system to "UNIX" if it was
	compiles by MSVC.
	Thanks to Collin Finck colin@reactos.org for reporting



HELIOS TODO:

	-	Add the HELIOS UNICODE mapping code. This needs to be done 
		at UCS-2 level for Joliet and UDF (instead of UTF-8) and only
		for Rock Ridge (in case of a UTF-8 based target locale) using
		UTF-8 based translations.

	-	Make the Apple extensions work again with "mkisofs -find"

TODO:

	-	read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
		or RR is present. I am looking for a volunteer for this task!

		Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation
		between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660
		names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are
		untranslated with respect to the original files on the
		master (UNIX) filesystem.

	-	add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.


CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
For more information read README.win32

The files are located on:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdrtools/files/alpha/ ...

NOTE:	These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some
	minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from
	http://sourceforge.net/projects/s-tar/files/ of from the schily-*
	tarball at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
	Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
