"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.

Detailed description:
A number of changes to the Carbon Code to improve how well it meshes with the
MacOS X user experience as well as to make sure that all of more recently added
toolbar buttons actually work.
Specific changes include:
Added partial keymap support. (Keymaps don't yet affect what the user types
but an X11 keymap can be used to enable pasting)
Copying of text screens added
Pasting of text as keyboard input added
Copy, Paste, Reset, and Snapshot menu items now work the same as the
corresponding toolbar elements
Revamped icon handling to use Control Manager IconControls,
thus removing icon display code and greatly simplifying icon click handling code
while adding better behaviours (icons that darken when clicked, track mouse movement,
and only do something if the mouse is released atop of them as well as gaining
the ability to be disabled)
Tweaked Paste toolbar and menu items to only be enabled if key mapping is in use AND the
clipboard contains text
Tweaked Copy and Snapshot toolbar and menu elements to only be enabled if
the screen mode is text.
Tweaked User Keys toolbar element to only be enabled if there are user keys
defined to be sent
Tweaked Configure toolbar element to only be enabled if a tty is available
(as in the emulator was started from a terminal)
Respaced toolbar icons to match Aqua Toolbars
Disabled menu items that are not currently handled (undo, clear, cut, disk eject)
Full screen backdrop resettled all across the screen
Fixed the callback interface so that when a Panic needs to ask the user about continuing
it actually works appropriately.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The emulated vga card issues a dimension_update() using the real
screen dimensions and the real font height.
- The gui selects a font with the requested height or it recalculates
the screen height if the font height is not available.
- The text_update() function uses a new variable 'ncols' instead of the
fixed value of 80 for the number of text columns.
I have tested the changes with X11/Linux, SDL, wxGTK and win32. The changes
in the other guis are not tested yet.
GUI specific paste functions for X11 and WIN32 in paste_handler() moved to
the new function
- get_clipboard_text() prepared for other GUIs
- set_clipboard_text() has now a return value (0 = failed or not implemented)
- use portable code in copy_handler() if set_clipboard_text() fails
- snapshot_handler() prepared for adding a file dialog call
- writing snapshot file in binary mode (LF->CRLF conversion already done)
GUI specific copy functions for X11 and WIN32 in copy_handler() moved to
the new function
- set_clipboard_text() prepared for other GUIs
- value of text mode cursor variables fixed (and renamed in x.cc)
- BX_ERROR message in snapshot_handler() fixed
