  1. Stuff that needs to be done and wishlist:
  2. These are in no particular order. A 1.0 release is reliant on doing most of
  3. this stuff. Some might be dupes, some might be done already.
  4. - autoconf support?
  5. - update the Makefile so that Cygwin can generate a DLL. The entire codebase
  6. compiles under Cygwin otherwise.
  7. - Hmm...we can determine the actual CD-ROM drives under Win32, but how do you
  8. decide that there's no disc in the drive?
  9. - A PHYSFS_readUint32(), _readSint32(), etc API.
  10. - Patch the zlib used on win32 to 1.1.4.
  11. - Write manpages, preferrably generated from some javadoc-style solution
  12. so we can make HTML versions etc from the same data.
  13. - Improve ZIP_seek() (archivers/zip.c)
  14. - Make the zipfile parse symlinks with relative paths. See the function
  15. expand_symlink_path() in archivers/zip.c ...
  16. - Actually, the zipfile driver could use a lot of tweaking. Please look
  17. through it.
  18. - Other archivers: perhaps tar(.gz|.bz2), RPM, etc. These are less
  19. important, since streaming archives aren't of much value to games (which
  20. is why zipfiles are king: random access), but it could have uses for, say,
  21. an installer/updater. I thought it might be neat to have MBOX and Maildir
  22. support so that both "archives" look identical to an application; might be
  23. nice for an email program. That's blue sky, unless someone wants to tackle
  24. it.
  25. - Look for FIXMEs (many marked with "!!!" in comments).
  26. - Port to BeOS (might work already? Will work for sure with autoconf support)
  27. - Make MacOS Classic use aliases as symlinks.
  28. - Port to MacOS X (specifically, make Project Builder files; unix.c should
  29. work with it as-is. Might compile as-is with the current Makefile, byte
  30. ordering fixes mentioned).
  31. - Probably other stuff. Requests and recommendations are welcome.
  32. // end of TODO ...
