Hi

New release 0.0.57 at
ftp.nvg.ntnu.no:/pub/vms/freevms (freevms-0_0_57.tgz and linker-0_0_57)
(Linker might not change each time)

News:
General:
Some support for ELF images to be loaded, activated and run by DCL;
so far it worked only for the simplest image.
CONFIG_VMS:
Console terminal driver integrated with class driver.
Trying to do terminal driver duplex.
3c90x driver works.
Updated and extended linker (objdump and nm-new is also usable).
The linker-produced images are now default with DCL.
Softints are now used instead of function calls to implement softints.

Bugs fixed:
Image-related.
3c900 used uninitialized data.
Stack damage due to logical system service not returning proper length.

Notes:
Userland recompile is definitely needed.
3c905 is not tested, but might work.
The linker must be made.
The linker does not do symbol table right.
With CONFIG_VMS, ELF binaries can be run (fork/exec) by
prefixing commands with _).
The CONFIG_VMS terminal driver still has stability problems.

Regards,
Roar Thronæs
