So far 80 column display was an attribute of a cc65 platform. Now each cc65 application can ask for 80 column display by defining WITH_80COL. Of course this is ignored by platforms incapable of 80 column display.
I see three types of application:
* Applications not benefitting from 80 column at all and in fact looking better with 40 column display. These are now using 40 column display. Examples: ethconfig, ipconfig
* Applications taking advantage of 80 column display if it is available without drawbacks. These stay as they were. Examples: Telnet server, web server, wget
* Applications needing 80 column display so urgently that it is likely desirable even if the display becomes harder to read. These come now in both flavors allowing the user to choose. Examples: IRC, web browser
Note: This change doesn't actually introduce any 80 column display with drawbacks. This if left to a subsequent change.
The default Telnetd idle timeout of 30 seconds seems somewhat short. Best to have it user-configurable (incl. the option to turn it off with an config value of 0).
The new Atari XL target allows cc65 programs to make use of
the shadow RAM. This allows to turn aon all features of the
web browser - and will allow for additional improvements to
come :-)
Don't be afraid, I'm not trying to have more retro platforms than "real" platforms ;-)
The platform 'atarixl' will replace the platform 'atari'. However I need both for some
transition period.
