Obviously, this is a fairly major WIP. It's the first public release in
17 months. The entire UI has been rewritten (for the 74th time), and is
now internally called tomoko. The official releases will be named higan
(both the binaries and title bar.)
Missing features from v094:
- ananke is missing (this means you will need v094 to create game
folders to be loaded)
- key assignments are limited to one physical button = one mapping (no
multi-mapping)
- shader support is missing
- audio/video profiling is missing
- DIP switch window is missing (used by NSS Actraiser with a special
manifest; that's about it)
- alternate paths for game system folders and configuration BML files
There's some new stuff, but not much. This isn't going to be an exciting
WIP in terms of features. It's more about being a brand new release with
the brand new hiro port and its shared memory model. The goal is to get
these WIPs stable, get v095 out, and then finally start improving the
actual emulation again after that.

Finally!! Compilation works once again on Windows.
However, it's pretty buggy. Modality isn't really working right, you can
still poke at other windows, but when you select ListView items, they
redraw as empty boxes (need to process WM_DRAWITEM before checking
modality.)
The program crashes when you close it (probably a ruby driver's term()
function, that's what it usually is.)
The Layout::setEnabled(false) call isn't working right, so you get that
annoying chiming sound and cursor movement when mapping keyboard keys to
game inputs.
The column sizing seems off a bit on first display for the Hotkeys tab.
And probably lots more.
