Scout 3.5 released

Scout 3.5 has just been released!

Scout now comes in 3 builds: OS2.x/3.x, OS4.0 and MorphOS.

These are the release notes. They are quite short because of too many mini
changes. A complete list of changes can be found in the ChangeLog file in the
source archive.

12-Mar-2006 Release 3.5 Program version 37.285

o Too many changes to list them all. All in all there were almost next to no
functional changes, but lots of system specific additions. The biggest
change however is that Scout now comes in a native OS4 flavour :) That means
we now have three different builds: OS2/3, OS4 and MorphOS. The OS3 build
should run under both, OS4 and MorphOS, but cannot really make any real
advantage of the new system enhancements. The OS4 and the MorphOS builds
however will make use of system specific enhancements as far as this is
possible and gives any advantage.

o all builds may list PCI boards in the expansion window. The OS4 build uses
the PCI interface of expansion.library, while the MOS build will use
openpci.library to query all the details. OS3 support for openpci.library
will hopefully come in the next release, together with a detail window for
PCI boards.
