Tim Allen cac3858f65 Document that we now require GCC7 and/or C++17 features. 2019-01-03 20:43:08 +11:00
Tim Allen 0b44399c0a docs: Review and update docs for v107.
Changes include:

- The "Library" menu was replaced with the "Systems" menu
- The "Settings" menu was reorganised
- Game Boy rumble is now under the MBC5 "controller" for the cartridge "port",
  instead of being presented as a part of the base console
- Import instructions now mention that icarus ships with some firmware files,
  and describe the "Firmware" directory that icarus will use for firmware
  it needs.
- Apparently the correct name is "MSU1", not "MSU-1"
- v107 changes the way MSU1 data is stored in game folders
- PowerFest '94 import instructions removed, since I can't get it to work
  with v107
- Links to the official forum have been replaced with links to the unofficial
  forum archive, since the official forum is shutting down
- Links to Mercurial Magic updated to point at qwertymodo's archive, since
  hex_usr is no longer developing it
- Links to nSide updated, since hex_usr no longer uses GitHub.
- Windows build instructions now describe a compiler that is actually
  maintained, instead of stale TDM64-GCC.
- Linux build instructions now mention higan requires SDL 2.0.
- minor wording changes, typos, broken links fixed, etc.

Tim Allen d537eaa0fd Start updating the docs for v107. 2018-05-17 14:32:42 +10:00
Tim Allen 8d7d452534 We don't need to override `compiler` when building.
It seems on Windows, `compiler` has defaulted to `g++` for a while now,
so we didn't need to override it in the `make` invocation.

Since v105r01, `compiler` defaults to `g++` on Linux too, so we don't
need to override it there either.

Tim Allen fb31df6eb8 Windows changed their not-found error message apparently. 2017-08-31 15:12:36 +10:00
Tim Allen c557d68ec4 Spell-check the documentation.
Changes include a few typos, a few capitalization changes, and a lot of hyphenation of compound words that were not as widely used as I thought.

Tim Allen c0934b826c Mention shaders in our install instructions.
If we're going to lug them around, we might as well use them.

Tim Allen b308661fa3 General tidying and tightening of docs. 2017-08-23 17:48:24 +10:00
Tim Allen 6c7a9adaad Consistently use "folder" over "directory", except for Linux documentation.
For Windows documentation, "folder" is the correct term. For generic
documentation, probably either would do but I suspect people are
slightly more likely to be familiar with "folder".

Tim Allen 9be4e59a05 Starting to fix broken links in the documentation.
Also, moved the "you should install the GBA BIOS" advice from the
install pages (where I doubt anybody would see it) to the "importing and
playing" guide, which I figure people are more likely to stumble across.
The actually instructions are still in `install/general.md` for lack of
anywhere more appropriate.

Tim Allen 3c3f1de317 Convert README docs to MkDocs format.
The existing documentation was getting *way* too long to be a single
document.

I've just bulk moved the existing content into the new structure, but it
definitely needs another pass to make the prose match, fix hyperlinks,
etc. etc.
