Genesis:
- Tweak the reset OSD option to act more like the reset button on the real HW (Shane Lynch)
- Reorganize the OSD
- Update the framework.

SNES:
- Fixes from srg320

Gameboy:
- SGB multiplayer and various fixes from paulb-nl
- CPU fix from brNX.

With latest Main paths should work correctly.

Main: - input: Better way to keep controller assigned to specific player while connecting/disconnecting of input devices. - input: support skips in keyboard definition (for pseudo-keyboard devices) (User button on I/O board to skip). - input: assign controller to a player only by pressing button "A" (to reduce unintended auto-assignments...

it seems not really "" but path inside the quotes which protects the names with spaces. Quotes aren't passed to driver as far as i see.

oh, really...
So i need to rewrite the path handling.

Does Amiga support .. in paths originally?

No. / refers to the parent directory, and : to root of volume.

shoudn't / be a delimiter in path?

btw, my setup of WB3.9 is ClassicWB but it doesn't use Scalos as far as i see. It's normal Workbench and it still has that fantome icon. I think it's "feature" of ClassicWB tweaks.. I had to refresh my memory, but there are 9 distinct versions of classic WB --> http://classicwb.abime.net/index.htm Some use Scalos, some don't. I was using...

More... uhm... issues: The ".." and "." are not treated right, they appear to be treated as subfolders, and one can `cd share:../../../..` and "escape" the shared folder all the way to / of the MiSTer, and since the user running the core is root, one can ruin the entire MiSTer from within AmigaOS - isn't that somethin...

i found workaround against fantom icon in ClassicWB:
in mountlist remove line
Mount = 1
then in startup script after mount share: add line:
dir share: >NIL:

I also tried it on 3.1 with ClassicWB ADV: The drive icon pops up as "SHARE:Sorg" and you can't open it. This is probably something to do with Scalos which is a Workbench replacement included with ClassicWB ADV. You can go into DirectoryOpus or CLI and access "SHARE:", so it does still work... ClassicWB has additional bug to no...

No. I've used part of Amiga driver from a314 project, but communication channel and linux side are completely different.

When it will be robust, it can be used as a normal hard disk drive for something big like WHDLoad collection, so you won't need a big hard drive.

it's released: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=653
Further discussion including development will be there.

known issues: 1) On WB 3.1/3.9 after copy/move/delete the icons, you have to manually choose Window->Update option to get window updated. The root of this issue is unknown. 2) On WB 3.1 if deleting folder isn't empty, the content will be removed while folder itself won't. Just delete it one more time. Technical info: WB creates the lock on folder w...

Extract from ReadMe: All required files (and sources) are in extra/MiSTer_share.lha Amiga driver is based on Niklas Ekström [a314](https://github.com/niklasekstrom/a314) driver. On Amiga: - copy dummy.device to DEVS: - copy MountList to DEVS: (or add content from MountList to existing file) - copy MiSTerFileSystem to L: - open CLI and type there: m...

Minimig: - Support for shared folder for rapid file exchange with outer world. Read the updated read me about shared folder. Treat it as beta stage currently. It may have bugs, so be careful when you manage your files! Note: you have to update Main to latest version! Main: - minimig: support for shared folder. - OSD: fix items bellow the DIP if it...

You should careful choose the combo for OSD. select+start is also not a good combo as such combo is still used on some consoles. TurboGrafx16 for example use such combo for soft-reset. Other consoles use this combo in games.

• Install the AmigaOS/Workbench driver provided by apolkosnik
• Reboot and then start sharing files between the SD card and Workbench?

no. The driver in apolkosnik repo is for a314. It's of course not compatible with MiSTer

fixed .info problem in 3.1.4
So it seems sharing is correctly working in 3.1.4 now.

Just tested 3.1.4. Good news: it automatically updates window when file is copied/deleted. Bad news: all files paired with .info are totally invisible on shared disk. Even if you select "show all", they are still invisible in WB. Only if i rename .info to something different then both original file and its .info addon becomes visible. In ...

Well, i identified a half of deletion problem. I didn't check the locks before delete. Now it doesn't delete locked objects. In WB 3.9 deletion works ok (honestly i didn't test before on 3.9), while 3.1 doing weird thing: If dir is not empty then it copy the lock and then deletes the content, then when it comes to deletion of dir itself it fails si...

3.1

It's only WB window content update issue. DOpus correctly updates after copy/delete.

according to WB sources, standard DeleteDiskObject() also calls UpdateWorkbench(), so basically it should work with any file system. Weird...

Very interesting info. Although it doesn't explain why it's not updated automatically.
But i will try to find what's the difference from native folders.

I can guess - is there a ".." in the folder, that points to parent folder on the linux directory, and that from Amiga side looks like a subfolder named ".."? "." and ".." aren't transferred to Amiga. Amiga uses ACTION_PARENT message explicitly wanting to find the parent of current folder, so it's not like si...

Another, more serious problem: If i try to remove the folder and it's not empty, then workbench remove EVERYTHING from shared folder. This is weirdest behaviour i ever seen. WB examines every directory entry, delete everything, then gets parent directory and deletes everything there and till it hit the root of shared folder! I couldn't identify the...
