2   C++ & FreeBSD Versions
==========================
This package uses C++, which comes standard with FreeBSD.
	uz@ says it's ok with FreeBSD 2.1.0 with g++ 2.6.3
	jhs@ confirms it runs with src/ current (Oct 8 20:36 src-cur.2289.gz)
	with c++ --version 2.6.3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3   Copying & Usage Rights
==========================
Ref. Makefile NO_CDROM & NO_PACKAGE...

There are somewhat restrictive conditions (in German) in the sources,
which I've duplicated & translated ...

  {--------
  * Generic Original by "Ullrich von Bassewitz" <uz@ibb.schwaben.com>
  + Generic Translation by "Julian H. Stacey"	<jhs@FreeBSD.org>
  
  Die ESTIC-Sourcen bzw. die ESTIC Binaries dürfen unter folgenden
  Bedingungen weitergegeben werden:
  The ESTIC sources & binaries may be distributed under the following conditions
  
    * Die Weitergabe geschieht im kompletten Paket mit Dokumentation.
    + Distribution as complete package including documentation.
  
    * Die Weitergabe geschieht kostenlos. Dies bedeutet insbesondere,
      daß ESTIC nicht ohne meine vorherige, schriftliche Genehmigung auf
      CD-ROMS vertrieben werden darf, genauso sind Mailboxen/FTP-Server
      ausgeschlossen, bei denen der Zugang zu den Daten nicht frei für
      jedermann ist.
    + Distribution to be free of charge, This means in particular,
      that ESTIC may not without my prior written permission be sold on CD-ROMs,
      neither may it be provided on mailbox systems or FTP servers that only
      offer restricted non public access.
  
    * Es dürfen keine geänderten Sourcen weitergegeben werden. Die Weitergabe
      von geänderten Binaries, sowie diffs zu den Sourcen ist hingegen
      zulässig. Das soll keine Schikane sein, sondern nur verhindern, daß
      mehrere verschiedene Versionen der Sourcen auf dem Netz verfügbar
      sind, was zwangslaeufig mit unnoetigem Aufwand fuer mich verbunden ist.
    + No changed sources may be distributed.  The distribution of changed
      binaries & diffs to the sources is however allowed.
     This is not intended as chicanery, but to hinder multiple availability
     of multiple versions of source on the net, which would create excess work
     for me.
  
    * Binaries, die durch Änderungen an den Sourcen erstellt wurden
      unterliegen weiterhin den hier angegebenen Bedingungen, d.h. es ist
      keine kommerzielle Verwertung oder ein kommerzieller Vertrieb ohne
      meine vorherige, schriftliche(!) Zustimmung erlaubt.
    + Binaries produced from changed sources come under these conditions,
     .... no commercial value added ... sales ... allowed, without my prior
     written agreement.
  
  Ansonsten bin ich durchaus gesprächsbereit, d.h. wer aus irgendwelchen
  Gründen gegen eine der hier angegebenen Bestimmungen verstossen will, der
  kann sich gerne an mich wenden.
  ... I'm open to discuss proposed breaches of these requirements.

  So I wrote & got a release...

  No problem. You are allowed to do so. The paragraph you cited is thought to
  help control who earns money selling my code, but I've no problems with that
  in the case of freebsd cdroms.

  I will change that in the next version anyway. So, you may distribute ESTIC
  as you like, as long as you leave the archive files intact.

5	Serial DC Handshaking
=============================

From: AmIstec (another package) / CE-Istec.LiesMich
  WICHTIGER HINWEIS ZU DEN NEUEN ISTEC-ANLAGEN MIT CE-ZEICHEN!!
  =============================================================
	 
  Die neuen Istec-Anlagen mit CE-Zeichen funktionieren leider
  nicht mehr ohne weiteres an Nicht-Dosen, weil Emmerich die
  serielle Schnittstelle galvanisch von der Anlage entkoppeln
  mu_te. Die f|r die Daten|bertragung erforderlichen Spannungen
  werden daher einfach von von den DTR- und RTS-Leitungen  
  bezogen. Dazu wird bei der Originalsoftware DTR auf logisch 1
  und RTS auf logisch 0 gesetzt um so die negative bzw. positive
  Spannung der Istec zur Verf|gung zu stellen.

  Leider ist das gezielte Setzen einzelner Signalleitungen im
  serial.device des Amiga nicht vorgesehen. Hier werden immer
  beide Leitungen auf logisch 1 gesetzt.

  Um die Spannungsversorgung trotzdem zu ermvglichen, kann man
  einen Schnittstellenadapter basteln, der die erforderlichen
  Spannungen von Pin 9 und 10 des Amiga-Ports auf die beiden
  Signalleitungen umlegt. Nach einiger \berlegung und durch die
  Mithilfe von Christian Buchner ist es mir aber gelungen zu
  ermvglichen, da_ mit AmIstec auch die neuen Istec-Anlagen
  ohne diesen Hardwarezusatz am Amiga betrieben werden kvnnen.
  Dazu wird die DTR-Leitung direkt |ber die Hardware gesetzt,
  soda_ die Istec genau das bekommt, was sie erwartet. Dieser
  Patch wird durch den Tooltype CEPATCH aktiviert bzw. bei
  einem CLI-Aufruf als Parameter mitgegeben.

  Oliver von Bueren <ovb@swissmail.com> ... sent me changes a few days ago. His
  changes are relative to version 1.40 and they seem to work for him. The only
  change that was new for me, was a call to DTROff (a function of the serial
  port class). If this is really needed (and he stated that he checked the
  pins with a voltmeter), this means that there is an error in the serial
  module. The DTR pin should be inactive if there is no hardware handshaking
  enabled as is the case with ESTIC.
  
  
  The only thing that was really new for me was the call to DTROff. I will
  check the serial module, since this call cures a symptom and not the error
  itself (but you may use it anyway).
  
  If you make any changes (apart from those in Oliver's diffs), I would like
  to hear from it. I got a few mails from FreeBSD people and I would like to
  incorporate any changes that make ESTIC work for FreeBSD into the main
  release. This little work saves me lots of emails :-)

7	Bugs & Problems 
=======================
- I have to start it as 	xestic -display :0	else I get
  Internal error: ScrInit: Cannot open display, file xsrc/console.cc, line 898
- When it starts I (jhs) get
	Malloc warning: free(): junk pointer (too high)
  but after that it runs fine.
- Alt X does not exit properly.
- Strange error messages if a file does not exist, 
	First I get a nice error message:
		Cannot open the alias file!
	ESC
	only then do I get the nasty one I remembered
		Internal error: Call to abstract method (= 0)
		file strmable.cc
		line 46
	Source shows:
		void Streamable::Store (Stream&) const
		{
	  46	    ABSTRACT ();
		}
- Mouse cursor strangely converts to skull & crossbones.
- Alt X does not exit properly.
