- CPUClr V4.000
-
-
- COPYRIGHT
-
- This program is based on a program written by Peter Simons, which
- in turn was based on the original CPUClr-version by Oliver Wagner.
-
- This version of CPUClr is Freeware, so anybody may use it without
- any charge. You are welcome to give this program to your friends,
- as long as you do not charge any money for it.
-
-
- WHAT IS IT ?
-
- CPUClr is a small hack, inspired by CPUBlit, that replaces the
- BltClear()-Routine of the "graphics.library" with a highly
- optimized 68020 (or higher) version. This gains (in a simple test)
- approx. 60% speed and should be even faster on an A3000,
- because the CPU works more efficiently with 32-Bit ChipRAM.
-
-
- NEW FEATURES
-
- CPUClr V3.5 can now be removed from the system any time, even
- if other patches for BltClear() were installed later.
- Patch.library makes it possible.
-
- CPUClr V4 main routines have been totally rewritten from
- scratch. It should now be even faster especially, when
- clearing big memory areas. (movem.l makes it possible)
-
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- All you have to do to install the patch is to call CPUClr in
- your User-Startup! (No RUN is needed.) Executing CPUClr a
- second time will remove the patch again. You may also have to
- copy the patch.library into your Libs: drawer.
-
-
- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-
- CPUClr requires at least an 68020 CPU. If you running CPUClr on
- a machine not equipped with an 68020er, CPUClr will quietly fail.
- You also need the patch.library version 2 or up to be installed in
- your Libs: drawer.
