bugs fixed
- AltirraOS: Corrected ICBLLZ/ICBLHZ values after CIO get commands.
- Disk Explorer: Fixed crash when write flush fails due to another program locking the disk image file.
- Input: Fixed Shift key state sometimes being incorrect when Shift was pressed/released while holding another key. The emulated Shift key state is now updated on Shift key changes while other keys are held.
Author's Comment:
- Inverted Option flag for internal BASIC is forced off when 32-in-1 is active.
- AltirraOS 3.15: Adjusted ICBALZ/ICBAHZ to improve compatibility with Lightspeed DOS.
- Fixed the Customize button being enabled too often in the keyboard customization page (when custom layout isn't enabled).
- Fixed an issue with Shift key down not being reflected in SKSTAT while another key was already being held. (Thanks to MaPa)
- The Recommendations page now has a note if the keyboard is set to cooked mode.
- Fixed crash in Disk Explorer when write flush fails due to another program locking the disk image file, like a virus scanner.
- Disk Explorer now forces read-only mode when the disk image file being mounted is marked read-only.

- Cartridge: The!Cart 16K banking modes no longer use the secondary bank write protect flag.
- Debugger: .readmem and .writemem now accept quoted paths.
Author's Comment:
- XF551 standard emulation mode now forces single density when the current mode is enhanced density and the regular $21 format command is issued.
- .readmem and .writemem debugger commands now accept quoted paths.
- Fixed broken DB 32K cartridge banking mode.
- Fixed The!Cart $8000-9FFF window using the secondary banking window's read/write bit in 16K banking modes. The primary banking window's R/W enable bit is now used.

Author's Comment:
- Rewrote hook for loading BASIC tapes. It now uses CIO hooking for injecting the CLOAD and RUN commands like the BASIC program loader does, for better speed and reliability.
- Fixed a bug in the ROM validator for WarpOS 32-in-1. Haven't seen failures of this in the wild.

changes
- nw
features added
- Cassette: Added option for detecting and automatically switching BASIC when booting tapes based on whether the tape starts with a BASIC or binary program.
bugs fixed
- Cartridge: Manually inserted BASIC cartridges are now persisted across runs of the emulator.
- Cassette: References to tapes mounted directly as .zip files without a direct reference to a file within the zip are now persisted properly across runs.
Author's Comment:
- Fixed regression in ANTIC display text selection.
- Manually attached BASIC cartridges (File > Attach Special Cartridge > BASIC) now restore correctly on next run.
- Added option to detect whether a tape starts with a BASIC program. If so and this option is enabled, the emulator bypasses holding the Start button, enables BASIC, and types CLOAD.

Author's Comment:
- There was a bug where the Input State controllers were being merged between the input maps. That's wrong since the Input State controllers target per-map flags. These are now excluded from merging.

Author's Comment:
- Fixed a regression that caused line breaks to be dropped on pasting.
- Adjusted pots to return min value 1 after some testing. (Paddles always returned 1 on the 800XLs and 130XE, Keyboard Controller returned 2-3 on XLs and 1-3 on XE.)
- Fixed a bug in the new digital pot inputs where they sometimes failed to update depending on the initial value.
- Another attempt at fixing some redraw bugs in the debugger history view.
- Alt+click can now also decode addresses in PEEK and POKE statements.

bugs fixed
- ATBasic: Fixed crash when Break is pressed prior to startup banner.
- Display: Fixed a high CPU usage issue with enhanced text display when paused.
- Input: The Input State and Console controllers are no longer blocked in 5200 mode.
Author's Comment:

- ATBasic 1.56: Fix for crash that occurred when hitting Break prior to startup banner.
- Fixed Input State and Console controller types not activating in input maps in 5200 mode.
- Added copy/paste escaping support: special keys like Invert and arrow keys can now be pasted with escape syntax in braces, i.e. {invert} and {left}. There is now also a copy escaped command that will use these escapes to produce keystrokes that can re-type those characters. ^ and + prefixes mean control and shift, i.e. {^tab} and {+tab}.
- The paddle knob (linear) input on paddles can now be driven digitally to use it as a switch input.

- Fixed an issue with some sub-dialogs in the UI closing when Escape was pressed.
- Lowered the load address of the type D SAP player from $0800 to $0400 so that some digisound demos work.

- Minor optimizations to text I/O (thanks to the crazy discussions on this in the programming manual thread!).
- Help key and HELPFG are now implemented in the keyboard handler.
