DEV_kbd_gen_scancode() is called instead of DEV_kbd_put_scancode(). This
change enables the support for different scancode sets. The win32 scancodes
are now converted to bx_key values.
- function userbutton_handler(): stop parsing the shortcut string if the
key name is invalid
- function userbutton_handler(): incrementing variable 'len' simplified
- function snapshot_checker(): fixed a warning

Comment from the author:
Attached is a "patch" file detailing what you need to do
to add USB support (UHCI only for now) to your existing
Bochs (2.0.xx) source code.
I use Win32 and VC++ but the source and modifications
should be platform and compiler independant.
Please let me know if this patch some how breaks the
build process of your compilation (Bochs 2.0.0 or above
only).
I would also like any feedback on how this code works
(or doesn't work) on your platform and within your
images. If you explain in as much detail as you can on
how it did or did not work, I will try to add to the source
to help it work on all platforms and images.
appears with the right dimensions. Font sizes other than 16 are working now.
The maximum font height in text mode is 32.
- the text mode cursor is now drawn with the right colors
the icon problem on Win2000. RegisterClassEx() would be required if we want
to specify a special mini icon.
- the win32 gui now uses the new function/macro DEV_vga_actl_pal_idx() to
determine the text mode colors.
palette - it's an index to the attribute controller palette index.
The new function get_actl_palette_idx() now returns the real DAC index.
The guis sdl, wx and x11 are using the new function. TODO: Fix this bug in
all other guis.

- for MacOSX/Carbon, if you start the app by double clicking in the finder,
there is no text console. So in logfunctions::fatal(), display the
final message in a Carbon dialog instead of using fprintf.
- in the text-mode config interface, return an error code if the
user tries to use the text menus when there's no text console.
Back in bxmain() this error code causes a panic
"Bochs needed the text console, but it was not usable"
- if a config file was not found, normally we turn off quick start
and drop into the text menus. However in the no-console case the
text menus won't work, so we added a panic: Unable to start Bochs
without a bochsrc.txt and without a text console. This is a much
more useful error than the generic one above.
- removed ensure_text_console() which was making matters worse instead
of better.

completely ignored and Bochs has always been returning 0. Now Bochs should
exit with the proper exit code.
- implementation: BX_EXIT(exitcode) calls SIM->quit_sim(exitcode).
quit_sim stores the exit code in the SIM object, then uses longjmp
to unwind the stack and return to main(). main() calls
SIM->get_exit_code() to retrieve the exit code and returns it.
- If you are wondering why we don't just call exit(exitcode), it is
because in the wxWindows interface all of the CPU simulation runs as one
thread while the user interface runs as another thread. With the longjmp
technique the simulation thread ends cleanly and it is possible to
start a new simulation thread without making a new process.
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".

reaches a certain maximum length. Otherwise the debug console grows and
grows and never frees any memory. The max length is defined as a constant
in wxdialog.h. The max length should be made into a variable some day.

the first hard drive or first cdrom drive no matter where they are found.
Now the wxWindows interface recognizes this fact. It allows you to
select HD boot if there is a hard drive in any ATA location, and
select CDROM boot if there is a cdrom in any ATA location.

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.)

there is one more option in the configuration file "debugger_log"
if the debugger is compiled in, all debugger output will be also
written to this file. Note: wxWindow config interface is not updated yet
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.
bochs.h. Bernd Korz reported redefinition of Bit32u in the system header
files, which I never saw before I moved bochs.h up above the other includes.
- The exact errors:

/boot/home/Entwicklung/Sourcecodes/bochs/config.h:474: error: previous
