Changelog:
- fixed cartridge load window focus on Windows
- lots of updates to nall, ruby and phoenix
- ethos and Emulator::Interface updated from "foo &bar" to "foo& bar"
syntax (work-in-progress)
Before I had mixed the two ways to declare variables/arguments all over
the place, so the goal is to unify them all for consistency. So the
changelog for this release will be massive (750KB >.>) due to the syntax
change. Yeah, that's what I spent the last three days working on ...
byuu says:
- OpenGL should work on OS X now; it uses VAOs and VBOs, and is fully
OpenGL 3.2 core compliant
- all configuration files are now stored in BML format, instead of CFG
format (half the size, much more readable)
- some old nall libraries that were never used have been removed
- make install works with or without root now (copies core files to
/usr/share/higan [non-configurable])
- make install also works on OS X (copies to /Library/Application
Support/higan)

Changelog:
- added support for ruby shader folders (place in "Video Shaders/")
- higan now also looks in your shared folder for configuration files and
system media folders
- added CFBundleExecutable key to OS X Info.plist
Shared folder locations:
- Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\higan
- Windows 7: C:\ProgramData\higan
- OS X: /Library/Application Support/higan
- Linux: /etc/higan
Evaluation order:
- look for item in binary folder: if found, use this folder
- look for item in user folder: if found, use this folder
- look for item in shared folder: if found, use this folder
- create item in user folder
For people repackaging higan for other distros: you should chmod 777
/etc/higan. Failure to do so could result in higan breaking. No, I will
not copy the files from the shared path to the user path.

Basically just a project rename, with s/bsnes/higan and the new icon
from lowkee added in.
It won't compile on Windows because I forgot to update the resource.rc
file, and a path transform command isn't working on Windows.
It was really just meant as a starting point, so that v091 WIPs can flow
starting from .00 with the new name (it overshadows bsnes v091, so
publicly speaking this "shouldn't exist" and will probably be deleted
from Google Code when v092 is ready.)
