  These utilise SpriteExtend 1.42 to set the pointer active point from the
  sprite mask.

Version 5.12. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_12'

Detail:
  s/Wimp03, s/Wimp07 - When saving the VFP context the Wimp now uses lazy context switching where possible, via a combination of the Lazy & AppSpace flags
Admin:
  Tested on rev A2 BB-xM
  Requires VFPSupport 0.02


Version 5.11. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_11'

Detail:
  s/Wimp04 - The checkhandle* routines now checks that the window pointer is word aligned before attempting to load any data from it.
  This prevents alignment faults on ARMv6+, and should result in more accurate sanity checks in general.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard.
  Fixes issue reported on forums:

Version 5.10. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_10'

Detail:
  s/Wimp, s/Wimp01, s/Wimp02, s/Wimp03, s/Wimp07 - The Wimp now uses the VFPSupport module to switch VFP contexts when performing task switches.
  Each task begins with the null context active (i.e. no VFP/NEON access). When paging out a task the ID of the active context is saved in the Wimp's per-task workspace. This context is then restored when the task is about to be resumed.
  Context save/restore is performed while the right task's memory is paged in, so it's safe to use with contexts located in application space.
Admin:
  Tested with Iyonix & Beagle ROM builds.


Version 5.09. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_09'

Detail:
  s/Wimp05 (setcaretcoords_fancy), s/Wimp07 - Fix some dodgy comments that had trailing backslashes, causing the next line of code to be gobbled by objasm and omitted from the compiled code. The code in question has been around for a long time, so I guess a recent objasm change (or the switch from aasm) has caused the dodgy comments to turn malicious. The setcaretcoords_fancy bug was the cause of bug #241 in the ROOL tracker.
  s/Wimp05 (int_set_caret_position) - While testing the #241 fix, I found that opening the filer 'rename' menu, typing text (enough to cause the icon to scroll), and then clicking away to close the menu would cause an infinite abort loop. The cause seemed to be int_set_caret_position mistakenly setting the caret window ptr to 0 instead of nullptr (-1), which would then cause setwindowptrs to die when it tried dereferencing what it thought was a valid pointer. Although initially confused about how this bug has gone unnoticed so far, I've now realised the abort was just down to alignment exceptions being turned on and the code would have "worked" on <=ARMv5.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard.
  Fixes bug #241.


Version 5.08. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_08'

Detail:
  The "pointer leaving window" code now checks that ptrtask != nullptr before attempting to use it as an offset to the workspace pointer. This is required when alignment exceptions are enabled because nullptr is -1.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.07. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_07'

Version 5.06. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_06'

Detail:
  CPU version is no longer specified in the makefile - it's better to inherit
  it from the build environment now that we actually set it appropriately.
Admin:
  Built and briefly tested. Binary should be unchanged - this only affects
  the warnings generated during assembly.

Version 5.05. Not tagged

Detail:
  Uses suffixed file extensions for compatiblity with both objasm and asasm.
Admin:
  Supplied by Peter Naulls, tested at ROOL

Version 5.05. Not tagged

Detail:
  Wimp found to have ininitialised WindowOutlineColour until the
  WimpVisualFlags had been run. Now initialised at module startup.
Admin:
  Tested in ROM build. J Ballance, Castle


Version 5.05. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_05'

  Allow the outline to be plotted over the window tools.
Detail:
  The options available through WimpVisualFlags have been extended with two
  new options that control how the window outline is plotted.

  WimpVisualFlags -WindowOutlineColour <&RRGGBB> -WindowOutlineOver

  WindowOutlineColour defines the colour to be used for the window outline.
  It allows theme designers to choose a window outline colour that fits
  in with a theme's general colour scheme. Default value is black.

  WindowOutlineOver controls if the window outline is plotted over the
  toolicons. It can be used to ensure that there is a window outline
  visible even when the toolicons are borderless. Default value is off.

Version 5.04. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_04'

Detail:
  Previous versions of the Window Manager required toolicons to have pixels
  that were transparent so that the background colour could be used to indicate
  whether a window had input focus or not. This means that new sets of toolicons
  either have to have transparent pixels or lose indication of input focus.
  To remove this limitation the support for toolicons has been extended so
  that a different set of toolicons can be used for the window with the input
  focus.

  The new icons have the prefix 'f' added to their names as follows:
    <toolname>    standard version of toolicon
    p<toolname>   pressed version of toolicon
    f<toolname>   focus version of toolicon
    pf<toolname>  pressed+focus version of toolicon

  Code has been added to ensure that all toolicons are represented.
  This is done in two stages; first the pressed icons are checked and for any
  missing its non-pressed equivalent will be filled in. Next the focus icons
  are checked and for missing ones its non-focus equivalent will be used.

Version 5.03. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_03'

  Fixed corruption of table with characters to be mapped to WimpSymbol.
Detail:
  There was an ALIGN statement missing just above the code for WimpWriteDir

  The table used to map characters to the WimpSymbol font had become corrupted
  which prevented the mapping from working correctly. This resulted in keyboard
  shortcuts disappearing in menus when using fonts that don't have definitions
  for the required characters, in particular the up-arrow representing shift.

Version 5.02. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_02'

Detail:
  Unnecessarily complex code in Watchdog for killing tasks other than the
  currently active task ended up corrupting the environment handlers for
  the current task.
Admin:
  Fixes the test case of running a BASIC program consisting of
    REPEAT UNTIL FALSE
  which previously caused random errors or complete crashes if you ran it
  and then Al-Breaked and tried to kill a different task.

Version 5.01. Tagged as 'Wimp-5_01'

Added a test harness that may be useful if anyone fancies finishing off drag and drop in writeable icons.

Version 4.99. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_99'

Detail:
  s.Wimp09 contained a stray line saying "block count" which surprisingly
  didn't assemble. Removed.
Admin:
  Builds. Haven't tested whether it performs to spec yet.

Version 4.98. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_98'

tuned memory recovery in addmessage in Wimp09 to take account of the granularity of RMA allocation. now does not consume/not return rma

Detail:
	use of R3 value in OS_Module extend block entry was incorrect..
	it was used as absolute size required, should be changed size required.
	resulted in wrong block re-sizing.

Version 4.96. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_96'

Detail:
	usergroup had identified a Hi bit set (32bit) issue with
	PollWords that existed in a hi bit set DA. There is evidence of
	previous work to avoid this, but a hi bit set pollword address
	could leave a V set condition floating around. Added CLRV to ensure it
	was cleared.
Admin:  tested in ROM at castle.. passes test from user that previously
	failed.  Castle added IP


Version 4.95. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_95'

Icon bar Shift F12 behaviour changed back to RISC OS 3.7 style, which made far more sense than the bizarre "simplified" scheme some Ursula spec review cooked up.

Version 4.94. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_94'

Moved the Hdr:NdrDebug routines so that debug versions build.

No change to production binaries, so not tagged.

Detail:
  Now exports VersionNum to the BBE.
Admin:
  Tested in a Tungsten BBE build.

Retagged, since this won't affect any existing builds.

Version 4.93. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_93'

* New options file for STB
* Changed some ADRs to ADRLs so that they reach for the options combination
  for STB

Version 4.92. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_92'

Variants pre-Ursula now build again.

Version 4.91. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_91'

Fixed an errant top-bit-set pointer problem with submenu pointers.
Removed startup sprites from Wimp sprite pool - now live in Desktop module.

Version 4.90. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_90'

Wimp_ReportError would loop indefinitely if the error string was zero length and the desktop font was an outline font.

Version 4.89. Not tagged

Wimp_GetPointerInfo should include shaded icons, in particular so that they
can now have interactive help. Included some information on RISC OS Select
APIs so that we can avoid clashes.

Version 4.89. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_89'

Version 4.88. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_88'

Added automatic translation of spaces to hard spaces in writeable icons that forbid the former but allow the latter. This effectively allows spaces in filenames.

Version 4.87. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_87'

Detail:
  * All tasks have erroneously been flagged as receiving all messages since
    version 4.78. Correct behaviour is now restored, and the previous
    fix (to ignore Wimp_AddMessages calls for tasks that already wanted
    all messages) should be unaffected.
  * Check for "P"-validation icon creation under the pointer was broken
    in three ways, now works.
  * The optimisation of multiple Message_SlotSize calls is overenthusiastic,
    and can lead to some messages being lost if the slot size is changed
    (including as a side-effect of OS_ChangeDynamicArea) during
    high-priority pollword-nonzero handlers or message handlers for
    Message_SlotSize - in both situations, a message block that may have
    already been delivered to some tasks is still present at the head of
    the message list. Now, the optimisation always ignores the message at
    the head of the message list.

Version 4.86. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_86'

Resource tweaks: changed floppydisc label; corrected *WimpVisualFlags help to use present tense like all other help strings do.

Retagged as 'Wimp-4_85'

Detail:
  * Adjust clicking on menu items was leading to Message_MenusDeleted being
    broadcast, resulting in incorrect behaviour in many applications.
  * Sprite-only menu items (eg !Draw's line pattern submenu) now highlight
    correctly when tiled menus are configured.
  * Added Wimp_Extend 13, which works out the appropriate resolution suffix
    for a given sprite pathname - required since Sprites11 support needs
    an iterative approach. This supercedes Wimp_ReadSysInfo 2.
  * *IconSprites now tries prefixing the last element of its path argument
    with "<Wimp$IconTheme>".
Admin:
  Tested on Tungsten.

Version 4.85. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_85'

Detail:
  * Bugfix: the contents of the pollword returned in the poll block by
    a PollWordNonZero event, where the pollword was flagged as high
    priority, was rotated by 8 bits due to a internal top-bit-set
    workaround. This no longer happens. (This was causing OmniClient never
    to complete initialisation on my machine.)
  * Extended the alternate resolution icon scheme for RAM/ROM sprites and
    toolsprites to be multi-pass, enabling the use of extra sprite sets for
    weird modes (most notably EX0 EY0 ones). After '23' or '0' suffixes
    (the latter still only applies to toolsprites), the suffix for the
    equivalent polychromatic resolution is tried. After rectangular
    suffixes, the next larger squarer suffix is tried. After '11', '22' is
    tried. Failing all of these, a match is attempted with no suffix.
  * The command window is now scaled and centred to match the current screen
    mode - up to a maximum size of 1280 x 1024 OS units.
  * Fixed the *WimpVisualFlags help strings (again).
  * Fixed 'task2' debugging to know about the structure of the SVC stack on
    32-bit machines.
  * Added support for generation of GPA files.
Admin:
  Tested on Tungsten.

Version 4.84. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_84'

Detail:
  * Validation string commands to set the pointer shape were incorrectly
    interpreted if they contained commas to set the active point.
  * Holding down shift when clicking on the back icon will only move the
    window by one position within the window stack.
