fine but the plugins cannot be loaded. This new test prints a meaningful

out why the plugins cannot be dlopened.

that section. If they write enough sections, we can take out the
section-by-section credits and list them as an author.

- add install target
- allow $SFUSER environment variable to define the sf username, instead of
hardcoding the user->sfuser translations in the makefile.
- now alldocs is called index.html

- now configure script does substitutions in doc/docbook/Makefile.in
- add "make install_docbook" target in main makefile that runs make install

eject, insert, eject, etc. several extra times before allowing you to
actually change the CD. The extra insert/eject cycles were coming from the
param handlers for cdrom status and for the cdrom pathname. To fix this, I
changed wxdialog.cc and textconfig.cc to only call set() on parameters if
they are different from the original value. Now it generally does what you
would expect.
- to change physical CD: change the Bochs CD status to "ejected". On some OSes
that will actually eject it, but on others it will simply close the file so
that the eject button will actually work. Then put the new CD into the
drive, and change the Bochs CD status to "inserted".

- move DOC-linux.html into the docbook in a section called "Quick Start for
Linux Users", and removed all references to the DOC-linux file that I could
find. Most of the text has been moved into the Linux RPM section. Parts
that did not fit into the docbook are now in doc/docbook/misc.txt.
- put vga.pcf into INSTALL_LIST_X11 so that it's only installed when
you configure with --with-x11.

to the revision info of user.dbk.

This version is a bit of a hack that needs to be cleaned up before release.
There is also a glaring bug that lets things go WAY too fast when
we're trying to catch up to real time. This is my highest priority
right now.

- added separate cases for the alarm time registers and a BX_DEBUG message that
reports the new alarm time.

This fixes bug #614724: SDL can get stuck in full-screen mode, and provides
a framework for fixing the problem on other full-screen display libraries
such as term, svga, etc.
- add virtual method bx_gui::set_display_mode(mode) which can be overridden
by each display library class, if appropriate. This method is primarily
used when you run Bochs full screen, to tell the gui to switch from full
screen back to a mode where you can use the text console.
- There are two display modes: config and simulation. The mode is changed to
config mode during logfunctions::ask, during the runtime configuration menu,
and before displaying a debugger prompt. It is changed back to simulation
mode whenever instructions are running.
- Instead of being called directly through the global bx_gui pointer, the
bx_gui_c::set_display_mode() method is almost always accessed through
siminterface, like this:
SIM->set_display_mode (DISP_MODE_CONFIG);
SIM->set_display_mode (DISP_MODE_SIM);
Of course siminterface just passes the call on to bx_gui::set_display_mode().
I added it to siminterface so that the config interfaces could call it.
(They don't #include bochs.h so they can't access bx_gui.)

knows how to convert Bit64s to double, but it refuses to convert Bit64u
to double. The macros: F2I converts from floating point to integer, and
I2F converts the other way, using Bit64s as a transition step.

- FAQ question: cdrom is supported on BeOS, too
- the default for the cdrom support is "yes"

- 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

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.)
