OSLib 6.12

[Tony van der Hoff]

Hot on the heels of OSLib 6.11 comes OSLib 6.12, now available at 
www.mk-net.demon.co.uk/oslib 

OSLib Version 6.12 - Tony van der Hoff - 30/09/2000
------------------
Enhancements:

*  Introduces Wimp_Init, which allows R1 to be passed as and argument, instead
   of just assuming "TASK" as in Wimp_Initialise (Rob Kendrick).

*  The OSLib: path prefix in the headers which was introduced for V6.01 presented 
   problems for some users. This has now been replaced by "oslib/". To accommodate 
   this, the directory structure has been re-vamped. There are now two variants of 
   the release archive: one for legacy 77 files per directory structure, and one for 
   RO4 or any other FS which can hold unlimited files per directory. The former 
   includes an additional layer above the .h level; the latter removes all layers
   above .h. Provided that the compile command specifies the -IOSLib: or 
   -IOSLibInclude:  include paths, everything will build as before. If the OSLib:
   path is specified, then all OSLib includes must specify oslib, e.g. 
   #include "oslib/wimp.h". The directory specifier may be omitted if the 
   OSLibInclude: path is specified, but this may allow namespace conflicts with 
   other libraries.
   
*  An Installation readme is now provided.
