List of recent changes:

ioblixser.device/ioblix12ser.device
37.17:
  - optimized receive/transmit loops a bit again



ioblixpar.device/ioblix12par.device
37.17:
  - IEEE1284 mode selection by environment variables was a little bit broken if
    you had both IOBlixZ2 and IOBlix1200P installed, because one variable was
    used for two different ports. For the IOBlixZ2 parallel ports everything
    stays as is (ENV:IOBlix/ParPortXXMode), for the IOBlix1200P the variable
    must be named ENV:IOBlix/ParPortCPXXMode, where XX representd the port
    number _WITH_ leading zeroes!!
  - the new tool "SetParMode" makes setting the ENV-variables much more easy
    and lots safer. SerParMode will print the current settings for each parallel
    port and ask for new settings. After that the new settings will be saved to
    the corresponding variables.


ioblixzip.device/ioblix12zip.device
37.17:
  - the driver didn't report a disk change when you disconnected the drive from
    the IOBlix while a disk was inserted. This is fixed now.



ioblixether.device
37.17:
  - the interrupt handler would return a wrong value, if the interrupt was not
    triggered by the IOBlix Ethernet module, but by some other hardware. Thanks
    to Krister S. Skrtic and Thomas Wenzel for their hints.



IOBlix-Handler
37.17:
  - just a revision bump



SetupIOBlix
37.17:
  - after some discussing with Thomas Richter he reworked his patch for
    expansion/AddConfigDev(). Hence the IOBlix1200 modules will be shown again
    with tools like C='s showconfig if you have mmu.library V42.3+ installed.
  - QueryIOBlix now checks for devices in multiple directories. Some people have
    their network driver installed in DEVS:, not in DEVS:Networks. QueryIOBlix
    wasn't able to find the necessary driver in that case.
  - the AutoMounter now also is able to mount FAT formatted (MS-DOS) disks.
    Unfortunately a FAT formatted disk doesn't contain a default device name
    like Amiga formatted disks with an RDB, so I chose "PZIPC:" as default name.
    Another limitation is, that CrossDOS's disk layout is assumed. This means
    that you _must_ use CrossDOS to use this feature is a sensible way. No
    chance for third party products like FAT95 :( I'll try to change that.
