configure script option --enable-magic-breakpoints (enabled by default).
Documented the instruction required to trigger the magic breakpoint
(xchgw %bx,%bx).
single setting without writing the complete line. The sequence of the arguments
doesn't matter now.
- the dmatimer value must be valid to enable the sb16
be used instead of a simple text control (implemented in wx)
- the new flag USE_SPIN_CONTROL is used by the memory size and the irq parameters
- special bx_list_c for the "Other options" menu in the wx configuration added
available at runtime
- wx: 'runtime' flag added to ParamDialog. If this flag is set, all options
with the flag 'runtime_param' clear will be disabled.
- only the runtime options for cdrom's are now enabled in the ATA dialogs at runtime
- the options 'keyboard paste delay', 'mouse' and 'vga update interval' are now
available at runtime
- wxdialog.h: unnecessary comments removed
- new bx_list_c for keyboard options (used in wx, TODO in textconfig)
- new flag USE_BOX_TITLE controls the usage of the list name for the group box label
- wxdialog.cc: unused variable removed
- siminterface: ask_filename() uses the prompt for the parameter name
- wx: missing title of the CMOS dialog added
- floppy path parameter names changed (used by win32config)
- user shortcut parameter description added
- pit: and time0: options are still supported but deprecated

with the new options
* option "cmosimage" must be saved, too
* most important options (config_interface, display_library, megs, romimage,
vgaromimage, boot) moved to the top of the saved file
- add the "journal" option to the ataX-xxx directive, so the user can
set a specific path for the redolog file (applies only for undoable
and volatile disk modes)
- add the enable handler, so the status and journal options of the ataX-xxx
directive can be hidden even if the ataX-xxx parameter is enabled.
You can now choose for each disk on the ata interfaces the
disk mode, between :
- flat : one file flat layout
- concat : multiple files layout
- external : developer's specific, through a C++ class
- dll : developer's specific, through a DLL
- sparse : stackable, commitable, rollbackable
- vmware3 : vmware3 disk support
- undoable : flat file with commitable redolog
- growable : growing file
- volatile : flat file with volatile redolog
- z-undoable : gziped flat file with commitable redolog
- z-volatile : gziped flat file with volatile redolog
A new "bxcommit" utility can merge commitable redologs to
flat images.
