Import of another set of awful icons in the Iyonix resources.
Tweak to the number of CLI parameters accepted by * commands.

Version 4.80. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_80'

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...

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
Admin:
  Tested on a "traditional" memory-mapped Tungsten.
