Version 0.61 of Stella for OS/2 is now available at:
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Pines/2281
Changes include:
o New cartridge ID feature which eliminates the use of a lot of *.VCS files
by generating a unique ID for each cartridge. This ID is used by Stella
to tell if the game uses paddles or not.
o Improved Drag and Drop, makes sure Stella becomes active after a drag.
o Fixed three problems that occurred if a Stella was started by dragging a
game onto it.
* Cartridge help is now available for the first game.
* Other games can now be loaded, Stella no longer refuses to load
other games.
* The Stella Help file can now be found and displayed.
o Fixed the "Cannot write to GAME$ drive" error message when Cartridge Help
or Stella Help is called up.
