Release  ..Date..  ..........................Changes..........................

  1.00   93/07/12  First general availability release.  Support added
                   for PS/2 mice, Inport mice, Felix mice, Summagraphics
                   digitizers and CalComp digitizers.  Many new PROTOCOL
                   options added.  The PORT, IRQ, RESPONSE, ORDER, UART,
                   RATE, X, Y, MARGIN and PRESSURE options were added.
                   The COM option was split into the COM and PORT/IRQ
                   options to allow a consistent format for each option.
                   The MOUSE=X option was replaced by the MOUSE=* option
                   to avoid a conflict with the X option.

                   Initialization error fixed which caused the ordering of
                   statements in CONFIG.SYS to be important for systems
                   using Lan Server or NetWare.

                   Uart testing affected some sensitive mice.  This was
                   not a bug but caused some sensitive (older) mice to
                   lock up.  The uart testing was changed to reduce the
                   chances of this problem and the UART option was added
                   to assist with these mice by completely avoiding uart
                   testing.

  0.90   93/04/07  Beta of initial release with digitizer support disabled.

-------------------------------- Coming Soon ---------------------------------

   No explicit plans have been made at this time.  However, some new features
under consideration are...

   An installation program (sending in the options you use will facilitate
   this feature by providing the necessary information)

   A Presentation Manager program to allow changing options "on the fly"

   Possible support for more than three mouse buttons to "kick off" a program
   or for a button to automatically generate a single or double click (these
   features might require a Presentation Manager program to be active at all
   times)

   Support for additional mice

   Better "hot plug" support

   However, none of these new features will be possible unless RODENT.SYS is
used by a sufficient number of people who register their copies.  So PLEASE
register!  If you have features you would like to see please send in your
suggestions when you register (or at any time, for that matter).
