[Tom Clayton] -psxcd: Further cdrom work, main functional change is better sector buffer handling [Carl] -svmu.c: changed input mappings to be more standard [LoganB] -pc8201: Added Japanese ROM.

[Team Europe] -snes.xml: added a few pirate multigame carts.

[Curt Coder] -Added hook-up for CD Block command 0x64 (Put Sector Data) [Angelo Salese] -megadriv.c: emulated protection in mulan, pokemon 2 (previously patched out) and in the real ttoon3 dump. [Fabio Priuli] -ColecoVision: controller has a * key, not a . key [Nick3092] -Apple II: Added support for Street Electronics Echo Plus and Zip Technologies ZipDrive cards [R. Belmont, Lord Nightmare] -dectalk.c: renamed dectalk roms to match the DEC 23-xxxLn standard and noted what their actual paper labels were (these paper labels will differ on different dectalk units depending on exactly when they were made, though the ROM contents are exactly the same! The derivable 23-xxxLn part number will not change, though.). Added more comments. [Lord Nightmare] -supercon: Fix regressions [Ralf Schäfer] -odyssey2.c: Further palette improvements. [Dr. Venom] -cbm8096: Emulated the 64KB memory expansion card, and promoted driver to working. [Curt Coder] -cat.c: (Canon Cat) Fixed a mistake in the memory map mirroring due to an error during testing; added proper readback of the floppy control register, and corrected the floppy status readback so it thinks that no floppy is inserted. [Lord Nightmare] -gameboy.c: fixed cart type for MBC1 collection games, promoting Bomberman Collection, Genjin Collection, Momotarou Collection, Mortal Kombat I & II and Super Chinese Land 1.2.3 to working state [Fabio Priuli] -gbcolor.c: added support for Sintax mapper, promoting a dozen of pirate games to working state [taizou, Fabio Priuli] -PlayStation: Fix CD-ROM regression [R. Belmont] -isa_ide: correctly mapped alternate port [Miodrag Milanovic] -megadriv.c: emulated protection in pirate Super Mario World 64, based on research by Eke and andlabs [Fabio Priuli] -gb.c: attempt in emulating protection for Chong Wu Xiao Jing Ling/Pokemon Pikecho.

[R. Belmont] -vk100.c (DEC GIGI/VK100): Hooked up the direction prom to the vector generator rather than using a hack. Still a lot of work to go, but the test mode looks like it at least starts off running more correctly before it fails. [Lord Nightmare] -Modernized vc4000 device. [Andrew Gardner] -snes.c: updated the driver to only save the real amount of SRAM present on the cart. This means that old .nv files won't be directly compatible with newer exe, but you shall be able to keep your saves by backing them up and taking the first block of the correct size (e.g. if you take the first 8KB block of your old .nv for Super Metroid it should work fine with the new exe). At the same time, MESS should be now compatible with saves taken in other emulators. [Fabio Priuli] -cat.c (Canon Cat): Got rid of the keyboard interrupt timer and hooked the keyboard interrupt to the 6ms timer instead, which is closer to hardware. The cursor blinks at a more correct but not completely correct rate now. The duart (the REAL source of the interrupts, which should fire with the transitions of the 12ms period squarewave) still does not work for interrupts properly, it needs its innards fixed. [Lord Nightmare] -Modernized wswan, special, and svision devices. [Andrew Gardner] -sms.c: [Enik Land] * Fixed master clock speed for PAL machines. * Improved hcount handling resulting in better results from Flubba's VDP timing checks. -snes.c: misc work on pirate carts.
