[Dgtnix-devel] dgtdrv V1.21

[Alexander W. <a.w...@ph...>]

Hi!

I've just committed V1.21 of the driver to dgtdrv's cvs. It requires the 
current V1.9.1 of dgtnix.

For usage with Scid (http://scid.sf.net) at least this version will be 
required, and chances are good that Scid gets quite confused with 
earlier versions of the driver.

Most issues in 1.21 deal with adoption of the code to handle a DGT XL 
clock properly.

Concerning Scid, it would of course be nice if there were some testers 
out here. DGT support will most likely be in 3.6.27 by means of dgtdrv. 
There is no release date yet for this version, so please use the cvs 
edition. Feedback welcome.

BTW: It would be very nice if there'd be someone who could provide 
binaries for Mac and Windows. I can compile on neither platform. Also 
note that Scid uses input engine protocol for DGT support. In principle 
every input engine following the specs at dgtdrv.sf.net should work 
well. One could e.g. also build a driver engine using other libs than 
dgtnix.
