Sweet16 2.1.1 now available

[Sheppy <the.sheppy@gmail.com>]

 I’ve just released Sweet16 2.1.1, a nice little update that fixes a
few bugs, and includes a couple of changes that reduce CPU overhead on
the host Macintosh substantially. Here’s an overview of what’s
changed:

    * The main event loop now does sleeps instead of busy-loops,
dramatically reducing wasted CPU cycles; Sweet16 plays much more
nicely with other running processes now.
    * Rewrote the video timing code to be more precise.
    * Removed some unnecessary mutual exclusion code in the networking
support, speeding up networking substantially.
    * The Create Disk Image panel now lets you choose a disk image
format on Mac OS X 10.4; previously this popup window didn’t do
anything prior to Mac OS X 10.5.
    * The SpiderMonkey JavaScript runtime is now weak-linked, so that
Sweet16 really does now run on PowerPC G3 systems (albeit without
debugger support).
    * Creating disk images of even 1 MB sizes (5 MB, 10 MB, 32 MB, 100
MB, for example) now goes much, much faster, since instead of writing
out 512 bytes at a time, these are written 1 MB at a time. A future
update will provide a similar performance improvement for floppy size
image creation.
    * Clicks in the video window are no longer ignored when the System
Information window is open.
    * Enabled some new optimizations that noticeably improves
performance on PowerPC systems.
    * Removed some unnecessary debug output.
    * The Create Disk Image panel now lets you create DiskCopy 4.2
images at 1.4 MB.
    * The Create Disk Image panel’s size popup no longer wanders out
of view when you resize the panel.
    * Memory no longer gets leaked when controls in the Create Disk
Image and Create Emupack file panels are clicked on.
    * Reworded the alert that appears when trying to mount a CD-ROM
when no CD-ROM is found, since the same alert is used both when there
is no CD-ROM media available as well as when there is no CD-ROM drive
available.
