I'm purposefully leaving /src/emu/bus/cbmiec/c1541.c's kernal.bin
as it is, as this particular spelling mistake was originally made
by Robert Russell, therefore is canon. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KERNAL for details.
I'm also leaving /src/emu/machine/nscsi_bus.c's RECIEVE as I don't
want to break anything, but it's worth someone looking into.
I renamed some variables in /src/mame/drivers/sfbonus.c,
/src/mame/video/tia.c and /src/mame/video/tia.h, so if anyone wants
to verify I didn't break anything, that would be nice.
This commits add some initial documentation for current API
exposed via luaengine. This doc is meant to be a quick
walkthrough for script writers coming from mame-rr.
Full methods reference is not yet included, as the API is still
rapidly changing.

Fix some more word duplication
I've left some instances of " in in " in, as they're ambiguous and
may actually be correct.

Hopefully fix typos
I'm not entirely sure about src/mame/drivers/nova2001.c line 933,
as it could plausibly be either "which is not the top bit" or "which
is now the top bit", with almost opposite meaning.

Tidy more comments
relative to -state_directory (whose usage remains unchanged). Syntax is basically the same
as snapname, allowing for the / character as path separator, %g as the driver name, and
%d_[media] as the image name mounted in the "media" device.
For example, using -statename foo/%g when running "mame wrally" will store save states into
the folder sta/foo/wrally/ ; using -statename %g/%d_cart when running "mess nes -cart smb"
will store save states into the folder sta/nes/smb/ ; using -statename %g/%d_cdrm when
running "mess pce -cart cdsys -cdrm draculax" will store save states into sta/pce/draculax/
Specifying a media switch which is not available (e.g. %d_cdrm in a c64) or a media switch
where no image is mounted (e.g. %d_cdrm in pce while playing a hucard game) will revert
the option to its default value %g and save states will be stored in sta/*gamename*/ as in
previous versions. [Fabio Priuli]
Needless to say, this option is very useful with home computers and consoles in MESS since it
allows to have 36 save slots for each game instead of 36 for the whole system library
Notice that a clean compile is required, due to the addition to the running_machine class
if it owns a given font (based on the name), and if it does, it is
responsible for generating bitmaps on the fly as characters are requested.
Added new option -uifont to specify the UI font. It can be set to a filename,
in which case a BDF font will be loaded. It can also be set to a font name
(assuming the OSD support is present), in which case the OSD font by that
name is used. The default value is 'default' which can be used by the OSD
to substitute a default font or by the OSD, which will default to ui.bdf
as before. In all cases, it falls back to the built-in font by default if
none of the previous options works.
On Windows, the OSD will default to Tahoma as the font name. Also on
Windows, font names can be specified with [b] to indicate bold or [i] to
indicate italic.
Moved -effect implementation out of OSD code and into core since
the implementations were identical across Windows/SDL and implemented
in the core itself.
specifies the number of seconds after the last video update that will
cause auto-termination of MAME. Also modified it to output a message
when the watchdog triggers the exit.
Updated windows.txt to reflect this option and the debugger_font options
which were never previously documented.
-numprocessors <auto|value>
Specify the number of processors to use for work queues. Specifying
"auto" will use the value reported by the system or environment
variable OSDPROCESSORS. To avoid abuse, this value is internally limited
to 4 times the number of processors reported by the system.
The default is "auto".
result, you will need a full recompile with this change, since the
bitmap formats enum was altered.
Introduced new feature -burnin, which can be used to generate a PNG
that represents the overall brightness seen during the course of
running a game. This PNG can be used as a fake "bezel" that overlays
the screen via the artwork systems (with a low alpha, say 0.1 or 0.2)
to simulate running a game with a monitor that has been burned in
from another game.
Fixed the -crsshairpath option to be spelled properly.
* Added Crosshair Options menu
- ability to individually enable/disable crosshairs
- ability for them to automatically disappear after a set amount of time
- ability to select crosshair graphic
- all settings are saved in the cfg file
* Removed F1 toggle for crosshairs
* Added new command option -crsshairpath
- store all selectable graphics here
- see config.txt for further info
OSD NOTE: render_load_png() has been changed to no longer force usage of the artwork directory.
Do a search for "render_load_png(" and replace with "render_load_png(OPTION_ARTPATH, " if needed.
----------------------------
F1 is now free to use for something new. I was thinking it would be perfect for a context sensitive help file. Each menu item could have a help tag, that it would look up and display info from an HTML file.
