Hi,
please have a look at
http://www.dosemu.org/stable
the version number is set to 1.1.99.1 (close to 1.2.0).
Some notes:
The -bin tarball and dosemu-freedos tarball (now updated to Beta9) work
like they did for 1.0.2.1
Alternatively, all-in-one RPMs (including FreeDOS) are available.
All the binaries are now dynamically linked and require glibc 2.2 (for
instance RH 7.0 or newer, SuSE 7.2 or newer, and Debian 3.0 or newer
should work) and X libraries.
The built-in command shell (comcom) is no longer used by default; FreeCOM
is used instead.
For those of you who have followed development, the 1.2 branch was forked
off version 1.1.5.3 and incorporates everything in 1.1.5.7 + some more,
but without the more experimental LFN support, filename NLS translations,
and bitmap fonts in text mode in xdosemu.
Some of the changes that happened since 1.1.5.7 are:
* mouse support in xterms and putty
* better support for keys in terminals
* new (hopefully clearer) layout of dosemu.conf
* the xterm and xdosemu title bars now show the DOS command that is
executed
* fixes to work with NPTL (as present in Red Hat 9)
* various DPMI fixes
* fix copy/paste to xdosemu
* updated various parts of the documentation (HOWTO, EMUfailure)
-- yes, I'm aware they aren't high quality but at least they are no
longer wrong and reflect the current DOSEMU.
* fix Turkish keyboard
I'll get a full list of user-visable changes (wrt DOSEMU 1.0) and an
announcement ready for 1.2.0 proper.
Please let us know if there are any release critical bugs present --
regressions vs. 1.0.2.1, doesn't run at all, the RPM is braindead, or
similar.
