cdrtools-2.01a36 ready



Note that we are close before publishing release 2.01 final. Please test for
problems that might make the cdrtools unusable. Cdrtools-2.01a36 is the most
probable release canditate for 2.01-final.

All:

-	libscgily/stdio/io.h renamed to schilyio.h to avoid conflitcs with
	DOS.

Libparanoia (Ported by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):

-	Try to use page aligned transfer buffers if possible.

-	Avoid buffer size problems wit non page aligned transfers on FreeBSD.


Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

Libscg:

Rscsi:

Cdrecord:

-	Be a bit more careful with the evaluation of the DMA speed test.
	Cdrecord before did allow to write at 1/2 of the DMA speed and now
	allows 4/5 of the DMA speed. This still may cause buffer underruns
	but the speed test has been introduced not long enough before 2.01-final
	to have settled experiences.

Cdda2wav (By Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):

-	Trying to handle interface setup more carefully if SCSI Generic is not
	used.

Readcd:

Scgcheck:

Scgskeleton:

Mkisofs (By Jörg Schilling and James Pearson j.pearson@ge.ucl.ac.uk):

-	man page enhanced to make clear that the options
	-no-split-symlink-fields & -no-split-symlink-components
	are most likely not neded as they have been introduced by Eric Youngdale
	when serious bugs have been in mkisofs.

-	Changelog updated

TODO:
	-	read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
		or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer 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:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/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
	ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/

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