This small release fixes an important bug in the GEMDOS drive and enables MIDI as a logging device.

GEMDOS drive fix

This fix solves a memory management issue with the initial release. It replaces a system call with another one, that was made available in TOS starting from version 1.04. So this fixed version now only works on TOS versions 1.04 and up.

Everything is explained in the updated documentation.

Logging device

This is a functionality for developers. It allows programmers to display informational text (usually, debugging information) from Atari programs on the zeST Linux serial console.

When the MIDI output device is not set, any characters sent to MIDI will be displayed on the console.

That’s all folks!

Thank you for reading this release report.

As usual, download and installation instructions are available on the getting started page.
