Stephen Anthony b54b4eb4f6 Fixed documentation on some debugger 'save' commands; they don't take
any parameter, and choose the name (and locations) themselves.
This needs to be fixed, and will happen when I get to issue #172
(add save file dialogs).

stephena 42dec8321d Changed debugger shortcuts to Control-combos to match the old
Alt-comboes, as these are easier to remember than function keys.

stephena 964e1d7d88 Text input is all parts of the UI will now use the users own
keyboard layout.  This means that non-US layouts can finally
enter (ASCII-only) text with Alt-Gr key-combos.  Because of these
changes, the global debugger keys for rewind/step/trace/scan+1/frame+1
are now the function keys F4 to F8, respectively.

stephena 60dd213a0a Added preliminary support for DASM lst files (currently to differentiate
symbol names in the DASM symbol file).  This partly fixes a deficiency in
symbol files, whereby two names could have the same address (one has an
address, the other as a constant), and Stella would use whichever one
occurred in the file last.

stephena 01d8c298ae Added 'dis.relocate' commandline argument, which passes the
Distella '-r' option (Relocate calls out of address range) to
the disassembler core.  Also added UI item to dynamically
change the setting.

Renamed 'resolvedata', 'showaddr' and 'gfxformat' commandline
arguments to start with 'dis', indicating that they're part
of the disassembler.

stephena fca261c4e3 Updated debugger documentation for recent disassembly changes.
Removed reference to disassembly 'SKIP' command, since it isn't implemented
yet.

Decided on Nov. 15 for the 3.3 release date, and updated all relevant files.

2010-11-10 22:38:16 +00:00
stephena e8b080551f Reverted grouping characters for multi-character debugger prompt commands
to use curly braces {} instead of apostrophes.  This matches the
functionality from older releases.

Fixed debugger prompt messages to show correct info when opening
various files (config files, autoexec, etc).

The debugger 'type' command now accepts a range of values.

Reverted handling of ROMs that aren't in the internal database;
they're inserted with their extension again, just as in older
releases.

2010-11-04 19:29:12 +00:00
stephena d664beb45d Several changes to make entering commands at the debugger prompt
case-insensive.  Currently supported are all commands and
pseudo-registers.  Equates/labels and user-defined functions are
still a WIP, since they're stored in various hashtables accessible
by name, which is still a case-sensitive operation.  In general,
tab completion is mostly case-insensitive.

Changed the delimiter for surrounding lines with spaces from curly
braces ({}) to the apostrophe (').

stephena b2ed949082 Some final changes for the 3.2 release, including documentation updates.
Added 'ramrandom' commmandline argument, used to toggle randomizing or
zeroing or all RAM in the system (both zero-page and SARA).

Disassembler now properly supports all test cases, including rewinding
within the debugger.

Added preliminary support for disassembling from zero-page RAM.

Bumped version # for final release.

2010-08-19 21:48:28 +00:00
stephena c3f5aa2810 When starting Stella for the first time (ie, when the ROM directory hasn't
been chosen), a dialog box now appears, asking the user to enter the
default directory.  This directory will appear each time the ROM launcher
is entered, until the user selects a directory.  This will hopefully
eliminate bug reports from users that don't know what to do when first
starting Stella.

Big changes to the manual, separating the necessary, up-front information
from the advanced stuff that can be considered later (or not at all).
Also added more links to ease navigation.  This should make the manual more
readable for those that have complained it's too long.

The setting for TV color type is now 'Color' and 'BW', instead of
'BlackAndWhite', as before.  The old one will continue to work, though.

stephena 506f5357b1 OK, hopefully this is the final commit for 3.1 (yeah right!).
Updated all remaining issues with the documentation and
changelog, and bumped the version # to 3.1.

stephena ea6ea9a7bd Renamed 'autocode' commandline argument and associated UI item
to 'resolvedata', since that more accurately describes what it does.
Also, it now accepts arguments as strings (never, always, auto)
instead of 0, 1, 2.

Updated main documentation for changes in OSX port 'basedir'.

Updated debugger documentation for recent command additions, and
provided new snapshots where the UI has changed.

It seems to be getting close to a new release - perhaps this
coming Friday.

2010-04-10 20:00:16 +00:00
stephena b781611925 Some updates to the PromptWidget and DebuggerParser.
The descriptions for the debugger commands are more streamlined
and better explained, and are neater when output.

Added 'cls' debugger command, which actually isn't for the debugger
at all, but for the prompt.  This erases all showing text and history.

Removed 'bank' debugger command, since it was already removed from
the RomWidget UI.

Removed 'listwatches' debugger command, since it wasn't implemented
anyway.  Besides, any watches are printed on every command access,
so it was pointless to have another function to do it.

Removed 'poke' debugger command; 'ram' and 'rom' do the same thing.

Fixed bugs in 'function' debugger command; it now correctly adds
functions without crashing.  Related to this, added 'listfunctions'
and 'delfunction' debugger commands for user-defined commands.

Fixed bug in completions for functions; it was including user-defined
functions twice.

Some general code cleanups in DebuggerParser (use ostringstream
instead of constantly creating new strings) and Expression
classes (make some methods const, for safety).

stephena 964415508d Tab completion in the PromptWidget is now working again. As well,
the completion now includes functions (built-in and user-defined).

Cleaned up some more of the debugger documentation, mostly
related to tab completion.

2010-04-08 18:21:00 +00:00
stephena 72b2ddd89b First pass at updating the documentation for the impending 3.1
release.  This won't have everything I'd have liked to include,
but the release time has dragged on enough (the last release
was in Sept 2009!).

Some general code cleanups for the OSX port, as well as fixes
to the menus.  The menus contained items that in some cases
weren't actually tied to any event, or showed the wrong
shortcut key.  Also removed some of the more esoteric menu
items, sticking with only the most basic ones (fullscreen vs.
window mode, volume control, etc).

stephena ddc77bd7e7 Added button for rewind to the debugger, next to the buttons which it
applies to.

Bumped version # to alpha3.

2009-08-25 12:46:56 +00:00
stephena 82325b731c Reworked the extended RAM editing in the debugger, allowing for those
schemes that have multiples areas of RAM.  Converted F4SC, F6SC, F8SC,
FASC to this new functionality.

Added ability to modify extended RAM in 3E, CV, E7 and EFSC ROMs.
Note that these ROMs can swap RAM in and out dynamically, so what
you see in the RAM area won't always be RAM.

Updated debugger CpuWidget; decimal and binary values for SP/A/X/Y
are now all shown at the same time (previously the registers had to
share a decimal/binary view).

Updated debugger documentation for recent additions.
