Changes:
- Count clock cycles to synchronize SA1 with S-CPU properly. Based mostly on
work by Vitor Vilela.

libretro:
- Fix multiline cheats.
GTK+:
- Switch from autotools to Meson build system.
- Readd glFinish option as alternative to glFenceSync.
- Fix size fallthrough with xBRZ filter.
- Fix loading of key bindings with spaces in them and modifier keys used alone.
- Add support for libretro ".slang" shaders to OpenGL driver.

also, rework gtk libretro-snes9x to use emulators/snes9x/Makefile.common
take maintainership since i was basically maintaining the libretro package
which was already the most up to date version in pkgsrc and now everything
uses Makefile.common.

Many thanks to byuu for much information. (zones)
- Removed some game specific hacks. (zones)

snes9x version.
Snes9x 1.52
- IMPORTANT NOTICE: The structure of savestates (also known
as snapshots / freeze files) is incompatible with older
versions! Snes9x 1.52 cannot read the savestates created
by 1.51 or older. (zones)
- Highly acculate SPC700 and S-DSP emulation. (Blargg)
- Replaced APU emulation cores (SPC700 and S-DSP) with
ones provided by Blargg's SNES_SPC library. This renders
savestates incompatible with older versions. (BearOso, zones)
- SPC7110 emulation. (byuu, neviksti)
- Merged bsnes' SPC7110 emulation code. Note that the .rtc
file of Far East of Eden Zero is incompatible with older
versions. (zones)
- Removed graphics pack support. It's no more necessary. (zones)
- Replaced S-RTC emulation code with bsnes' one to keep the
good compatibility of .rtc files between the two
emulators. As a result, Daikaijuu Monogatari 2 now
outputs the .rtc file, and its .srm file is incompatible
with older versions. (zones)
- Added savestate supports for DSP-2, DSP-4, ST-010 and
OBC1. (zones)
- Added UPS support. (byuu)
- Fixed DSP-4 AI problem. (Jonas Quinn)
- Fixed invalid memory accesses in C4 and OBC1 codes. (zones)
- Fixed invalid memory accesses in BSX codes. My mistake. (zones)
- Fixed the read value of $213e, $4210 and $4211. (zones)
- Fixed the writing of word values at the memory boundary. (zones)
- Fixed the bug that the unnecessary SA-1 emulation
continues once any SA-1 games are launched. (zones)
- Removed old color blending codes. (zones)
- Removed too-old Snes96 and ZSNES snapshot support. (zones)
- Updated command-line options. (zones)
- Code cleaning. (zones)
- GTK+ : Added a port of Snes9x to the GTK+ toolkit. (BearOso)
- Unix : Reconstructed and simplified all the contents.
Some features have been removed to be simple, and many
options have changed. GTK+ port is recommended for most
of Linux users. (zones)
Changes for version 75
* Fixed screensaver disable option so it doesn't send a fake keypress
when Snes9x isn't focused.
* Changed resolution setting to store width and height instead of
a screen's mode index.
* Fixed a bug where the PortAudio driver wouldn't output sound at
44100hz.
* Allowed changing the behavior of the ESC key so it exits Snes9x.
Changes for version 74
* Fixed a couple thread deadlocking problems in the audio mixer
that could result in no sound.
* Removed the powerof2 function to fix compile problems on OpenBSD.
* Changed fullscreen mode to issue a raise signal to the window
manager after remapping.
Changes for version 73
* Fixed a compile error when XRandR support isn't being built.
* Included Tukuyomi's updated French localization.
Changes for version 72
* Added a new regular-interval audio mixer to significantly improve
sound quality.
* Added a new SDL audio output driver.
Changes for version 71
* Refactored video driver initialization code.
* Removed dependency on gtkglext for OpenGL output.
* Allowed theme icon to be used for window mini-icon.
snes9x is a portable, freeware Super Nintendo Entertainment System
(SNES) emulator. It basically allows you to play most games designed
for the SNES and Super Famicom Nintendo game systems on your PC or
Workstation; which includes some real gems that were only ever
released in Japan.
This package contains a GTK port of snes9x.
