F - fraction/mmx
E - exponent
A - aligment
- descripton of bochsrc option "user_shortcut" updated
- bios names in the bochsrc sample updated
- FAQ question: cdrom is supported on BeOS, too
- the default for the cdrom support is "yes"
- the default for the e9 hack is "yes"
- serial port UART name is 16450
- fixed a typo (PPC)
- removed the code for changing the console screen buffer size
- BUG: the gui window receives all keypresses from the console when it gets back
the focus. We have eliminate all keypresses before the simulation continues.

This untested patch shows how and where to call RedirectIOToConsole() when
compiling with SDL on win32. I believe this, or something like it, will
fix the problem of having no console window on SDL.
- enable RedirectIOToConsole() when compiling with SDL on win32, so that
it can be called in main().
- move main() down below the definition of RedirectIOToConsole(), and
add a call to RedirectIOToConsole()
- in WinMain, Bochs always asked the user to press ENTER before exiting.
I moved that code to main() with #ifdef WIN32...#endif around it.
(Maybe this should only be done when Bochs explictly creates a console
window, though.)
. read port 0x70 (cmos) : return index
. atapi function 46 and 4a : return error
- put back the log prefix for cmos that disappeared when we did the plugins
- if BXBIOS is not defined, set it to a default value that is produced
in the makefile. This allows us to make disk image TAR packages that
look for the bios images in the $BXBIOS directory. These packages
will be able find the current images for future Bochs versions, without
any modifications.
doesn't get put in the dependency list. It's not clear what is the best way
to handle this header conflict anyway, other than to rename vga.h to bxvga.h
or something.
This information was quite obsolete. Anything useful in here should be
merged into the documentation some day. It certainly should not be
sitting in the main directory where it might confuse people.

text config interface. This function does not have any contents yet...
the contents need to be filled in for those platforms which sometimes
have no stdin/stdout. The default case, in which stdin/stdout is
usable, is to just return. But if stdin/stdout is NOT usable, this
function should display a warning dialog and quit.
