Bug Fixes
September 27, 2003
sp_PutTiles() and sp_GetTiles() were fixed.  Three new commands were added:  sp_JoyTimexEither()  to read both TS2068 joysticks and OR the result, sp_inp() to read an i/o port and sp_outp() to write to an i/o port.
Major Release V2.2
September 8, 2003
V2.2 has several core subroutines rewritten to support windows in a future version.  A side effect is that background tiles now separate colour and graphics information, which is what should have been done from square one.  Some of the Huffman routines were debugged and several new background tile commands were added.  The most interesting one is probably "sp_PrintString()" which prints a string within a bounded rectangle optionally using embedded commands that allow loops, changing coordinates, changing colours, etc.   As usual, bugs may exist and the most likely functions to contain them are the new ones.  There is now a tutorial that covers most of the functions in V2.2.
