<h1 align="center">xxx Release Notes</h1>
<h2 align="center">Release 5-2</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>iocBoot/iocCygwin/* -- Added examples for loading databases,
specifying autosave PV's, and invoking SNL programs, for orientation matrix,
femto amplifier, and pf4dual slit.
<li><p>pseudoMotor.db, sumDiff2D.db, and coordTrans2D.db are now in the motor
module, and not in xxx. This affects some substitution files in iocBoot/ioc*.
<li><p>Some synApps databases used to specify input/output message terminators,
and no longer do this. Message terminators must be specified in serial.cmd.
<li><p>Added examples for userArrayCalcs, pvHistory, XIA slit, string sequence, timer
<li><p>Specified message terminators for Digitel in serial.cmd
<li><p>Added example of setting system clock rate to iocvxWorks/st.cmd
<li><P>Scaler database loading has changed to accommodate asyn-based device support.

<li><p>iocxxx - split into iocUnix, iocvxWorks
<li><p>st.cmd, xxxApp/src - changed xxx.dbd to iocxxx.dbd, xxx_registerRecordDeviceDriver to
iocxxx_registerRecordDeviceDriver because c function name cannot begin with a number
<li><p>st1.cmd - cd to topbin/../vxWorks-68040, so we don't have to have a separate
cdCommands file. Load xxx.munch instead of a bunch of separate files

<li><p>vxStats.substitutions - new file to work with vxStats module
