ppa3.c release 0.32 may be found at the following URL:

http://www.prism.uvsq.fr/~son/ppa3.html

This is ALPHA code. It is a port of the 0.26 ppa-athena Linux driver.
This code is not supposed to work with any chipset, I'm working
on a better support.

What's new ?

- Transfer modes:
	4 bit / 8 bit autodetection
	EPP 8, 16, 32 bit mode support
	8 bit mode via ECP if 8 bit mode detection fails

- Mode configuration facilities
- Higher transfer rate

What is in progress ?

- ppa3.c for FreeBSD-2.2 will be soon available.
- Better chipset support. For last info,
	see the corresponding Linux page.

Thanks for using ppa3 code.
Have fun.
