Detail:
  RISC OS 4 changes:
  * Font blending for desktop font (based on NC code, but now configurable)
  * 3-D window/menu/iconbar borders
  * Textured menu backgrounds
  * Loss of rubout box in unfilled text+sprite icons
  * *WimpVisualFlags controls various aspects of cosmetic changes above
  * Iconise button "slot" glyph slightly shorter (but only adopted in the RO400
    Resource directory)
  * Command window has front-window flag set
  * Byte at +39 of the window block has gained two new flag bits:
      bit 2 set => this window must never be given a 3D border
      bit 3 set => this window must always be given a 3D border
      (note that ResEd erroneously created windows with both bits set,
      this case is treated as though both bits were clear)
  * Another two colour specifiers on the end of C validation string command
    for icons controls the foreground and background colours to be used when
    the icon is selected
  * Pointer shape is correctly reprogrammed by the creation of icon
    underneath it
  * Full stops in writable icons are treated the same as spaces from the
    point of view of cursor navigation
  * spritesize routine returns a size of 0 if the sprite didn't exist
    (probably fixes some rendering problems)
  * Adjust-click on back icon brings window to front
  My changes:
  * DeleteRight turned on
  * Icon bar title background is set to default in all resource sets (avoids
    translation table recalc)
  * Error box title now cream across all resource sets
  * RISC OS 4 changes made 32-bit compatible / high addresses safe
  * Undocumented FullIconClipping option disabled
  * Command help made consistent for internationalised and non-
    internationalised builds
  * WimpVisualFlags defaults made sensible
  * Menu side width affected by ThreeD option at *run* time not assemble time
  * Right-clicking on menus with writable items no longer data aborts
  * Auto-opened menus are now at RHS of current icon (matches RISC OS 3.1)
  * Colour menus were knackered unless menu tiling was enabled
  * Fixed a bug whereby adding messages to a task that wanted all messages
    actually caused it to lose all other messages. The RISC OS 4 fix for
    this didn't work
  * Fixed bug introduced in version 4.76: tasks that wanted no messages got
    all of them
  * Autoscrolling is updated every 8 cs rather than every 12 cs
  * Added menu texture to pre-RISC OS 4 sprites files

Version 4.78. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_78'

Detail:
  All pointers passed to the Wimp (mode selectors, menus, sprite areas,
  palettes, pollwords, validation strings, message lists, routines etc etc)
  in any of its APIs can now be anywhere within the 32-bit address range.
  In general, whenever "<= 0" was accepted as a null condition, the value
  must now be either 0 or -1. It should also be tolerant of system memory
  areas (supervisor stack and RMA) being in the top half of memory.
  Also:
  * Default next slot now a build option - Ursula builds (eg Tungsten) use
    1024K instead of 640K
  * Ursula builds no longer have a build variant in the help string
  * Autosenses ROM location
  * CR-LFs in *Configure messages replaced with LF-CRs
  * Added Iyonix resources (currently based on Morris4)
  * Morris4 sprites files have gained file_lxa, small_lxa, file_unf,
    small_unf and lo!help sprites
  * Ursula sprites files have gained lo!help sprites
  * *WimpSlot can take memory sizes in megabytes or gigabytes

Detail:
  The titlebar and input focus colours for the window template for
  error boxes is now cream (12). This is more intuitive. Builds which
  do not have a title bar will not look any different.
Admin:
  Included the little utility which did the modification in Test/ResMod
  (as in Resources Modifier - but who cares). May be of use in future.

Version 4.70. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_70'

Detail:
  * New STB Sprites, Templates and Tools files imported, based upon the
    Lazarus UI rather than the old STB UI.
  * STB build now includes WIMPSymbol.
  * No longer attempts to use WIMPSymbol font in UTF8 builds which didn't
    register the font in ResourceFS.
  * Simplified Resources directories by assigning only a single pair of
    Messages files to each locale, rather than for each UI directory within
    each locale directory. The only code change required is to make the Wimp
    error box always use the "Continue" token for NC/STB builds, rather than
    using one of "OK" and "Continue", as with desktop builds.

  Not tested.

Version 4.42. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_42'

Detail:
  * Added missing Resources/UK/Ursula/CmdHelp file.
  * Added missing Resources/UK/Ursula/Messages file.
Admin:
  * Tested on build 'Ursula'.

Version 4.34. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_34'
