Source Changes
--------------
Fixed problems with i2cmem. Cubo CD32 games now save and load settings
properly. [Mariusz Wojcieszek]

Cleaned up many duplicate inputs and fixed others in a number of
drivers. [Tafoid]

SDL: Support -uifont for using arbitrary TrueType fonts on Linux/BSD
builds. This takes full pathname/filename to the font, and the name
can have styles appended as in Windows: [ b ] for bold, [ i ] for italic,
[ s ] for strikethrough, and [ u ] for underlined. Fonts are rendered at
a size of 120 points and scaled down by the core, which looks superb
on high-res displays. (Liberation Sans that comes with most recent
distros looks really good). [R. Belmont]

Warning: Linux/BSD builds now require SDL_ttf 2.x. On Fedora the
required package names are "SDL_ttf" and "SDL_ttf-devel".

tms7000: Corrected two opcodes: typo in inv_b and JPZ was wrong in
official TI document. [Gilles Fetis]

SDL: -uifont now can also look up system font families like Windows
[R. Belmont]

Take some driver_device classes that cover multiple drivers and
split them so that each driver gets their own driver_device class.
In most cases, these drivers got entangled because of audio/mcu code
that was shared between multiple drivers: [Atari Ace]

* espial/marineb/zodiak
- common code duplicated
* m52/m57/m58/m62/travrusa
- common code in audio/irem.c
* junofrst/pooyan/rallyx/rocnrope/timeplt/tutankm
- common code in audio/timeplt.c
* hyperspt/sbasketb/trackfld/yiear
- common code in audio/trackfld and audio/hyprolyb.c
* 40love/bking/buggychl/msisaac
- common code in machine/buggychl.c

[R. Belmont, Barry Rodewald]

[Miodrag Milanovic]

SDL: add ptty (*IX/OS X) and sockets (all SDL builds) capability
[Tim Lindner, R. Belmont]

Added Button 3 to the original Yie Ar Kung-Fu boardsets. While not
shown in manual, there is function for these buttons and the emulation
should account for this possibility. Mapping is off by default.
[Tafoid]

Replaced smgolfb with correct dump
[D. Beneke, M. David, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union]

MESS fixes: [Miodrag Milanovic]
* Fixed issue with image empty slot
* Default for writeconfig is now 0 for MESS since it is not needed
anymore
* Fixed handling of mounted devices on hard reset
* Unified some emuopts code, and removed ifdefs

Corrected several rom names in the Sega System32 driver. Most notably
the correct revision for Spider-man & Golden Axe II US sets.
[The Dumping Union]

Hooked up MSM5205 sample playback routines to Rougien, disabled by
default because sample start write handler is still a mystery
[Angelo Salese]

Updated Naomi/Naomi2 M2/M3 encryption. [Andreas Naive]

Fix F4 shortcut so it explicitly labels the address as a number by
preceding it with "0x". This allows F4 to work properly, for example,
on the 68000 stepping to address a6, which also happens to be a
register name. [Aaron Giles]

More updates to Naomi/Naomi2 M2/M3 decryption. [Andreas Naive]

Added proper sample playback in Rougien [Andrew Welburn, Angelo
Salese]

Split the screen device into a separate module. Converted global video
routines into a video_manager. Moved video manager initialization

size, size, and offset in software lists. [Curt Coder]
