by default.
Rearranged the output to make the output instructions always appear in
the same column, which makes them considerably easier to read.
I have *not* done the physical address display changes -- plan to do
that separately.
Changed "License" to "Bochs License"
Added "Third Party License" section, taken from old docs.
Authored "Will it Work for Me?" section according to instructions in user.dbk comments.
"bx_bool" which is always defined as Bit32u on all platforms. In Carbon
specific code, Boolean is still used because the Carbon header files
define it to unsigned char.
- this fixes bug [ 623152 ] MacOSX: Triple Exception Booting win95.
The bug was that some code in Bochs depends on Boolean to be a
32 bit value. (This should be fixed, but I don't know all the places
where it needs to be fixed yet.) Because Carbon defined Boolean as
an unsigned char, Bochs just followed along and used the unsigned char
definition to avoid compile problems. This exposed the dependency
on 32 bit Boolean on MacOS X only and led to major simulation problems,
that could only be reproduced and debugged on that platform.
- On the mailing list we debated whether to make all Booleans into "bool" or
our own type. I chose bx_bool for several reasons.
1. Unlike C++'s bool, we can guarantee that bx_bool is the same size on all
platforms, which makes it much less likely to have more platform-specific
simulation differences in the future. (I spent hours on a borrowed
MacOSX machine chasing bug 618388 before discovering that different sized
Booleans were the problem, and I don't want to repeat that.)
2. We still have at least one dependency on 32 bit Booleans which must be
fixed some time, but I don't want to risk introducing new bugs into the
simulation just before the 2.0 release.

parport1 with the new option "enabled". The old option "enable" only
controlled the output. The parport1 is enabled with no output by default.
Changes:
* bochrc option "enable" replaced by "enabled"
* parport option "Oenable" replaced by "Opresent"
* bx_parport_options par1 and par2 replaced by an array par[2]
* initialize parport1 resources only when enabled
* renamed variable "parport_init_list" to "par_ser_init_list" since it
contains parport and serial options
* documentation and bochsrc updates
- the parport variables "output" and "initmode" now belong to the bx_par_t
structure
- TODO: add parport2 (disabled by default), parport detection in the bios
references in the other manpages are updated.
- the version placeholder is now written in lowercase. This prevents the
modification of the sed argument by 'configure'
- install/uninstall commands for the manpages in Makefile.in modified to make
the changes obove work.
- header and footer of the manpages fixed
- pathnames of installed files updated (FHS compatibility)
- "parport1" section in the bochsrc manpage added
- new option "cdrom" in the "boot" section of the bochsrc manpage added
script can detect platforms, the standard "configure&&make" should
work on all platforms (that's the goal at least). I mention
the .conf.* script for each platform as well, even though it is no
longer required.
Here are the patches (without the serial name fix). Let me know if you want
me to change that. Oh, FYI, my changes also open up the com1 terminal in raw
mode, which makes the emulation much more accurate. You'll also notice that
I added infrastructure for com2->4 in the option parsing. I didn't add it to
the serial code, as I think a bunch of things need to be untangled before
that can work.
- change "ch07" to "mailinglist" so that we can renumber easily
- add current information on who maintains different bochs ports, and pleas
for help on the ones with no maintainer. Removed FreeDOS--it's not
a host OS. Maybe this fits in a list of guest OSes, but for now it
goes in the trash.
line, like this:

Glimpse, which is indexing our website, finds this very confusing and
it cannot pick out the title from this mess. This script takes a list
of HTML files on the command line and attempts to make the <TITLE> tag
look more normal so that glimpse can understand it.
WARNING: This is a hack. It's made to work on docbook generated html, but
may do strange things on anything else.
instructions, configure options
- added a transcript of a successful compile, since that gives all the
commands and shows people where their compile went wrong.
- all bochsrc option names changed to lower case, since the uppercase
versions will not be recognized.
- BIOS is now named BIOS-bochs-latest instead of by date.
