stephena 3a2865981a Reverted OpenGL framebuffer code to 16-bit colour, and removed blending
for phosphor effects.  It's just not ready to go yet, more research is
needed, and I just don't have the time to fix it.  Besides, it's been
two months since the last release, and I need a vacation.

Because of this, the release date is changed to May 25.

stephena b200260d85 Huge speedup in OpenGL rendering, by only updating part of the texture
instead of the entire area.  This fixes the speed regression from 3.6,
since the main TIA texture is now larger than before.  Previously it
was 160 pixels wide out of 256 total (rounded to power of two), now
it's 560 wide out of 1024 total.  In 3.6 it was updating a buffer 256
pixels wide, in the latest beta releases it was sending 4 times as
much data (256 -> 1024).  Now it sends only 160/560.  Similar
improvements happened with the height as well (210 lines vs 256).
On my test systems at least, this is an extremely large win,
resulting in similar speeds as 3.6 even though we've moved to a 32-bit
framebuffer.

Bumped version # for next beta release.

Pushed release date to June 1, to make absolutely sure I have
everything fixed and ready to go.

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.

stephena 5ca6d8c49d Removed 'uselauncher' from the UI, as it really shouldn't be there
(ie, disabling from the UI kills the UI on future runs, so you can't
enable it again).  This should fix problems where users go
'click-happy' in the UI, turning options on and off just to see what
happens.

Added 'showinfo' to the UI, so you don't have to drop to the
commandline to use it.

Updated all release files and bumped version number for 3.1.2
release.

stephena 31d3233dc0 Fixed timing bug reported on AtariAge, also noticed on several versions
of OSX.  It was partially caused by 'negative time', or successive
calls to SDL_GetTicks() returning smaller values than previous calls.
This obviously totally confused the timing logic, which was never
designed for time to go backwards.  Related to this, setting the
framerate to 0 from the VideoDialog UI (indicating that auto-frame
should be used) ended up setting the time-per-frame to approx. 71
minutes, resulting in a delay of 71 minutes to the next frame
(which is what caused the 'lockup').

Changed all references to the Intel OSX build to also mention OSX
Snow Leopard (10.6), since the build won't run on 10.4 or 10.5.

Bumped version number to 3.1 (again).  Hopefully this is good to go.

stephena ecb4689584 Some cleanups for the OSX port. Stella for the Mac is now known
simply as 'Stella', just as it is on other platforms (instead
of StellaOSX).  This indicates that the OSX port is now a
first-class citizen, with the same importance as Linux and Windows.
Also cleaned up various text files for spelling mistakes and
formatting issues in OSX.

Added credits for Richard Kennehan, who donated a 2600 console
and various controllers to help with Stella development.
