Just a quick UI bugfixes release.
Changes 2.0.0:
This release brings major source code clean up, numerous bug fixes and
many great new features and important improvements. 98% of changes since
last release have been made by Piotr Fusik - admire his dedication
to Atari800 project while you will be browsing through the impressive list
of changes below.
Run-time configuration (via the .atari800.cfg file) has been improved.
All configuration options are now available in the User Interface.
Remember to use "Save configuration file" when necessary.
If you are new to Atari800, press F1 and select "Emulator Configuration"
to configure the ROM images. This can be easily done with
"Find ROM images in a directory".
DISK_DIR, ROM_DIR, EXE_DIR and STATE_DIR configuration options are no longer
supported in this version. You need to re-select your directories
using "Emulator Configuration" -> "Configure directories".

SDL dependencies change, so bump PKGREVISION (and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED)
for affected packages.
Addresses PR 32046 by Leonard Schmidt.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
* different color palette used by default
* PNG screenshots added
* added sector counter and speedometer
* F6 is Atari HELP key on Curses, Falcon and in X11
* added missing combinations of ANTIC modes with GTIA modes
* keyboard joystick works in more games (doesn't pause the game) in SDL
* mouse joystick emulation works in X11
* cassette loading by hardware registers (Ninja and Elektraglide
are examples of games that load correctly now)
* blank boot ATR disk image can be created in the Disk Management menu
* many small fixes and major source code clean up
* ANTIC mode 2 + GTIA mode 10 - half pixel shift fix
* Amiga port updated
* OS/2 port updated
* DOSVGA port updated - joystick definition read again
* X11 port has improved keyboard support (Ctrl+Pause, left Ctrl for joy button)
* SDL port updated: joysticks emulated on keyboard can be freely edited
now with SDL_JOY_0_<direction> and SDL_TRIG_0 (same for JOY_1/TRIG_1)
config file parameters that expect values from SDL keySyms.
* R: can now be hooked to a real serial port (no runtime config yet)
* various ANTIC and POKEY fixes for perfect software compatibility
* disk and cartridge info saved in the state files
* casette handling greatly improved
* even more cartridges supported (40 now!)
* some rare buffer overflows fixed
Highlights since last 1.2.5 release:
------------------------------------
* new HiFi sound (you may en/disable it in the UI)
* new cycle-exact Antic emulation
* "H:" emulation complete (including subfolders)
* Paged memory implementation (fast XE bank-switching)
* new configuration file name and location ($HOME/.atari800.cfg)
Makefiles simply need to use this value often, for better or for
worse.
(2) Create a new variable FIX_RPATH that lists variables that should
be cleansed of -R or -rpath values if ${_USE_RPATH} is "no". By
default, FIX_RPATH contains LIBS, X11_LDFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, and
additional variables may be appended from package Makefiles.
Summary of changes since 1.2.4 (from ChangeLog):
* DOC/cart.txt: fixed a few typos
* ui.c:
- applied patch from Ed Cogburn that fixes subsequent mounting
of R/W disks in slot that was mounted R/O previously.
- finally implemented the R/W <-> R/O mode switching using the Space Bar.
Please note that this R/W <-> R/O switch is just temporary and does
not change the writeprotect flag of ATR images. Besides, it cannot
override this flag so you actually can't mount a writeprotected ATR
image read/write using this Space Bar toggle.
* atari.c: Ken Ames sent me a very simple patch that is supposed to allow
compiling the Atari800 on OS/2 "using Hob X11, XFree86, or IBM's X11
server".
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt: five new cartridge types (Nir Dary)
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt, DOC/README: seven new cartridge types
* pokeysnd.c: a fix for better quality of sound
* antic.c: ANTIC mode E + GTIA mode 9 ("Unconventional 2k", "Ass Kisiel")
* DOC/BUGS: "Numen" soundtrack
* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt: 1 MB XEGS cart
* input.c: Amiga/ST mouse right button ("Bombdown")
* input.h, input.c, pia.c: MultiJoy4 interface (4 joysticks for XL/XE)
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
