- Enforcer V37 - For 68020/68851, 68030, and 68040 CPUs
-
- It requires V37 of the OS or better and does not have *any*
- exceptions in it for specific software. Nothing should be causing
- Enforcer hits.
-
- Requires an MMU. On 68EC030 systems, it may think it is working
- even if it is not due to the fact that the missing MMU is very
- hard to detect. Use LawBreaker to check.
-
- This Enforcer has also been highly optimized to be as fast as
- possible.
-
- Enforcer can now also be used with CPU or SetCPU FASTROM or most
- any other MMU-Kickstart-Mapping tool. This means that you do not
- have to give up your speed in order to use Enforcer. (Major win
- on A2000 and A500 systems)
-
- Much more documentation and information provided. Major new
- output options. (Such as local output, STDOUT, and parallel
- port options...)
-
- Make sure you read the documentation before using these programs.

- -----
- Changes from V37.55:
-
- Tested against some more CPU boards and now should handle even
- the strangest of them. (I don't have these boards so I need
- reports from people in order to make sure Enforcer works on
- them.)
-
- Cleaned up the output of the Enforcer VERBOSE option and
- added more output to that option. Also added a check for
- a strange operation with certain CPU boards.
-
- Found the reason that certain 68030 CPU cards with large amounts
- of RAM would not work with Enforcer. 68030 CPU board should now
- work even with local FAST RAM.
-
- Rebuilt with SAS/C 6.51
-
- Added support for empty LINE debug hunks that are sometimes
- produced by the SAS/C 6.50 SLink. This is actually a good thing
- and should help reduce problems in the FindHit code for the future.
-
- Added a signal to the system to provide for quick turn-around of
- Alert output from Enforcer when Enforcer output is not direct to
- the serial or parallel hardware.
-
- Please send all comments to Michael Sinz. Enjoy...

- ************
- ** Remember ** *NOTHING* should cause an Enforcer hit. There is
- ************ no reason to ever cause one if the software is written
- correctly. When Enforcer is running, the VBR is moved
- and even interrupt vector poking should work just fine
- without Enforcer hits. Software that causes Enforcer
- hits may not be able to run on future systems. In fact,
- such software may not even run on current systems.
