These are in no particular order. A 1.0 release is reliant on doing most of

this stuff. Some might be dupes, some might be done already.

- autoconf support?

- update the Makefile so that Cygwin can generate a DLL. The entire codebase

compiles under Cygwin otherwise.

- Hmm...we can determine the actual CD-ROM drives under Win32, but how do you

decide that there's no disc in the drive?

- Platform-specific functions/macros to handle byte ordering.

- A PHYSFS_readUint32(), _readSint32(), etc API.

- Patch the zlib used on win32 to 1.1.4.

- Switch the CHANGELOG to list newest changes first.

- Write manpages, preferrably generated from some javadoc-style solution

so we can make HTML versions etc from the same data.

- Byte order API; just something simple like:

__EXPORT__ PHYSFS_uint16 PHYSFS_swapBE16(PHYSFS_uint16 val);

__EXPORT__ PHYSFS_uint16 PHYSFS_swapLE16(PHYSFS_uint16 val);

(these can be macros. The hard part is determining the architecture at

compile time, and whether a given platform offers accelerated

conversion macros already. We can probably jack this from SDL, too.)

- Make win32.c respect the more strict filesystem layout enforced by

Win2000 and later.

- Improve ZIP_seek() (archivers/zip.c)

- Make the zipfile parse symlinks with relative paths. See the function

expand_symlink_path() in archivers/zip.c ...

- Make archivers/unzip.c use the new byte order API for a little more

efficiency (it gets 32-bit ints as four 1-byte reads; yuck.)

- Actually, the zipfile driver could use a lot of tweaking. Please look

through it.

- Other archivers: perhaps tar(.gz|.bz2), RPM, etc. These are less

important, since streaming archives aren't of much value to games (which

is why zipfiles are king: random access), but it could have uses for, say,

an installer/updater. I thought it might be neat to have MBOX and Maildir

support so that both "archives" look identical to an application; might be

nice for an email program. That's blue sky, unless someone wants to tackle

it.

- Look for FIXMEs (many marked with "!!!" in comments).

- Port to BeOS (might work already? Will work for sure with autoconf support)

- Port to MacOS Classic (needs a platform driver, byte order fixes mentioned)

- Port to MacOS X (specifically, make Project Builder files; unix.c should

work with it as-is. Might compile as-is with the current Makefile, byte

ordering fixes mentioned).

- Probably other stuff. Requests and recommendations are welcome.
