code is much cleaner, and the Variant infrastructure allows
work to continue on a more full-featured ContextMenu.

the check for the required ZIP version was being too aggressive,
and causing some ZIP files to not open at all.

Some cleanup of the various enum's in the UI classes.
Fixed issues with ordering when adding dialog boxes; this fixes a
bug when adding a dialog from another dialogs ::loadConfig(), in
which case the first one is placed below the second and can't be
seen (mostly applies to MessageBoxes).
Fixed bug in handling OSystem::setBaseDir(); if the directory didn't
exist, then the newly created one wouldn't have a slash appended at the
end. This causes all further (sub)directories to be created/named
incorrectly.
Started work on extending BrowerDialog to load files as well as
directories, and to allow editing of the items from within the dialog
itself.

commit (AR), this one isn't yet fully implemented.
That's it for the bankswitch schemes. Now I can move on to the
remaining items for the 3.9 release.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2709 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
No extra functionality is present; this will have to wait
until a future release after I have a better understanding
of the AR scheme.

disables normal keyboard input when in the debugger. This fixes issues
where commands/shortcut keys typed in the debugger would be interpreted
as actual CompuMate input.
For now, in-debugger key processing is completely disabled in such a
case. Eventually, we should probably add a virtual keyboard to the
CM RIOT area, and have it send its data directly to the CM handler.
Bumped version # slightly. I hope to get the next release ready to
go in a few weeks.

extended into yet another tab, since there's still the need to
show the display bank, frequency bank and DPC Harmony RAM. Or
maybe there isn't a need to see this extra stuff??
Some more cleanups of the graphics/UI API.

The remainder of this commit is basically some cleanup of the
Widget API, and infrastructure fixes to allow CartDebugWidgets to
have change tracking.

it only contains the same functionality as F8; it needs to be
expanded to show more DPC-specific stuff.
Updated all schemes that contain a fixed RAM address range
(mostly the Superchip ones) to exclude that range from the
accessible ROM area.

the cart.

Implemented changing banks for MC scheme (although no test ROMs

never actually included info on how to enable/disable it.
StringParser is now width-sensitive, in that it can also split
on a maximum string length. This is useful for making the various
UI items font-size independent, and to flow the text accordingly.
Increased minimum size of debugger window to 1080x720, which allows
things to be laid out a little nicer, and gives some much needed
extra room. Sorry guys, the most common resolution now in use
is 1366x768, so it's time to move with the times.
Cleaned up some of the descriptions in the ROM debugger tab(s).

since the current bank is at address-level resolution, and
it would immediately change back upon the next address change.

ContextMenu dialogs.
Tweaked bankswitch autodetection for 29K ROMs; the only possibilities
are ARM (FA2) or DPC+.

esoteric schemes (ie, the ones that no longer follow the '4K per bank'
design). Arguably, this is the entire point of adding the cart-specific
debugger ROM tab; to make it easier to work with such schemes.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/stella/code/trunk@2689 8b62c5a3-ac7e-4cc8-8f21-d9a121418aba
For now, only 4K is shown. Eventually this will be included for all
bankswitch types, whereby the UI will be tailored to the specifics
of each scheme, so that ROM/RAM banks will be able to viewed and
changed more easily.

(for now, only the debugger, but might as well deal with the problem
in a general way once and for all). The Shift-Left/Right keys now
work as they did before, and switch between tabs in a tabset.
For dialogs with multiple tabs, it now selects among those tabs
where the focused object is. Clicking on another tabset then changes
the focus, and allows the same keys to switch among *that* tabset.
Now I can finally start the cart-specific bankswitch UI items.

debugger. In the process, I had to spend several days extending
the UI/dialog class to actually contain multiple tabs. This was
harder than expected, and it still isn't quite finished. In many
ways, we're beginning to reach the limits of the current code; it
was never designed for a full-fledged, graphically rich UI.
For now the tab is empty, but eventually it will contain general
info about the ROM bankswitch type (size, virtual layout, etc),
but also cart-specific info, including the ability to change
banks, which can be vary greatly among the different schemes.
Eventually, it may even allow to see/modify very cart-specific
info (like display RAM in DPC, etc).
Better handle errors in opening the serial port (AtariVox support)

- Removed 'SKIP' directive, since it wasn't implemented anyway, and
I see no way to implement it
- Add 'aflag' setting to diassembly output, matching usage in Distella.
This is needed for diassembly output, otherwise DASM barfs on the code.
- Fixed several long-standing bugs in Distella disassembly wrt ROW
directives and labeling. Previously, the output you see in the debugger
wasn't completely correct, since it wasn't compiling properly in DASM.
- Illegal opcodes are now shown as .byte directives; this allows the code
to compile in DASM.
- Print 16 bytes per line in .byte directive in external disassembly,
same as Distella.

Turned off 'resolvedata' in the debugger when disassembly ZP RAM.
It seems to be buggy in certain cases, and it's easier to just

and (b) it's only at most 128 instructions.

Removed various 'Image' and 'Greeting Card' ROM info from the database;
the info was incomplete, and there's no way that I'm going over 7000+

RAM to do so, which I agonized over for about a week, but I feel it's
a fairly good tradeoff for the features we get. Eventually, I may come
up with a more accurate phosphor mode which eliminates this approach
entirely.
Reverted OpenGL framebuffer to 32-bit colour mode. We're using Blargg
effects, so we may as well get the full fidelity out of it. Besides,
testing has shown that there's not much speed difference between 16
and 32 bit modes, making me think that 16-bit is probably be swizzled
to 32-bit anyway.

to realize over the years (and in particular with reading the C++11
standard), raw pointers are evil and error-prone. So this fixes
some of them at least.

normal control functions (ie, pressing Ctrl-q will not quit, but send
this combo directly to CompuMate).
Mapped Func-Space to the Backspace key for CompuMate keyboard.
Func-space (which is actually Ctrl-space is still supported).
Updated documentation for CompuMate changes and system requirements.

z26 code never actually implemented this, so I'm not sure how people
actually entered Basic code. I guess not many people have played
with and tested this before.
Added more sensible keys for the CompuMate 'space' and 'enter' keys.
They're still mapped to '/' and ';' respectively (to keep locations
on the keyboard the same), but are also mapped to the actual 'Space'
and 'Enter' keys (to make usage much easier). I'll probably also
map 'Shift-;' to Backspace as well.
Updated documentation for CompuMate emulation.

supported too, but still TODO is allow the Control key to
pass to the CompuMate controller and not pre-process it
by the EventHandler (so pressing Ctrl-q) shouldn't quit
emulation in that case).

Renamed various 'Fire' button events to prevent the above problem
from happening again.
In BoosterGrip games, the right mouse button now sends the 'booster'

manually up to this point:
- 'rom_diff.pl' command inspects two directories and looks at differences
in filenames, and copies ROMs into 3 new directories (ADDED, REMOVED,
and CHANGED). This is most useful for when RomHunter releases new
romsets.
- 'merge_props.pl' command merges all properties from a source file that
also exist in a destination file. This is useful when I do a mass-edit
of many ROMs, with the info being saved into my personal stella.pro file.
Running this command afterwards will 'merge' them into the master
stella.pro file, and then Stella can be recompiled with the new properties.

Checking in first pass at revamping the 'mcontrol' functionality. The idea is
that the mouse will be able to emulate different controllers on each of its
axes. For now, the left mouse button is tied to the X-axis, and the right to
the Y-axis. These modes will be saved per-ROM, meaning that the mapping can
be different for each ROM (it is saved as part of the ROM properties). Only
the paddles and driving controllers will allow this, since they're the only
controllers where a single axis makes sense.
Switching between mouse modes will be done with Control-0 (the Control-1..3
keys have been removed). This will allow switching all possible combinations
(left controller, right controller, per-ROM setting, etc).

generic than SDL, but less generic than simply using int's for everything.
This will help once we start porting to SDL2, which has an updated keycode
handling system. The plan is that the internal core keyboard stuff is now
insulated from any further changes in SDL.
This also allows eventually adding support for CompuMate controller,
which needs access to keycode names in a generic way.

Moved TODO and Credits info directly to the webpage, where it will hopefully
be easier to maintain.
Fixed 'crackling' sound when loading a new ROM, introduced with the 3.5
sound restructuring. It looks like stale data was being loaded by the
sound processing callback. As well, moved the computation of certain
division variables from the sound callback to the framerate re-calculator
(where it's recomputed 1/5 of the time or less).
Updated AboutDialog with info about Stella DonationWare status, and active
members of Stella development.
Updated OSX in-app HTML documentation about Stella DonationWare status.
Bumped version # to 3.5.1_svn, and the process starts again.

when it isn't needed. According to SDL this shouldn't be necessary, but
some combinations of video modes and audio hardware cause sound to stop
working if it's repeatedly opened and closed. So we have to keep it open.
Always attempt to use 2 channels (aka stereo) when opening the SDL audio
device. This is now required, since ROMs can request mono or stereo mode,
and the sound system can no longer be closed and re-opened with the
desired settings. So we need to always use 2 channels to accommodate
when it might be needed. This actually more closely emulates the 2600,
which does have two audio channels. The 'mono' vs 'stereo' ROM property
basically controls whether these channels are exposed (ie, does the
virtual console have two-channel audio hardware installed). In that sense,
these settings control how the channels are mixed.
Updated some settings to have more reasonable defaults.
Added acknowledgement for people that have donated hardware to help with
development.

saved per device, so that unplugging and replugging a joystick won't cause
the previous mappings to be lost.
All attributes of a joystick (ie, number of sticks, number of axes, buttons,
hats on each stick) are dynamic, meaning that hardcoded values are no
longer used, making the handling more robust.
