Detail:
  Title bars: one of the Ursula redraw optimisations was that if the title
  bar sprites had no mask, then the title bar is no longer filled in before the
  sprites are plotted. Lazarus' toolsprites were falling foul of this, because
  the title bar top and bottom sprites (tbarmidt/tbarmidb) had a lesser height
  than the end sprites (tbarlcap/tbarrcap). Because pre-Ursula Wimps filled
  in the title bar regardless, this may not have shown up in the past. The Wimp
  now has an additional check: if there is a gap between the title bar sprites,
  then it always fills in the title bar background before plotting the sprites.

  Error box buttons: the "illuminated" side of the 3D plinths have always been
  white, so they were getting lost against the white Lazarus UI background.
  Used Ursula Wimp icon colour validation string extension to colour the
  borders a uniform grey.

Admin:
  Tested on a desktop machine, soft-loading the Lazarus Wimp resources.
  Fixes faults 1115 and 1121.

Version 4.35. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_35'

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'

Detail:

  * Added the toolbar level indicator sprites; they were accidentally
    missed out of the previous set of sprites.

Admin:

  * Untested, but the new sprites should appear in the right location on
    the browser toolbars.

Version 4.33. Not tagged

Detail:

  * New WIMP sprites for the updated Lazarus user-interface.

Admin:

  * Tested on new LazarusUI and NCFresco as a softload on Lazarus hardware.

Version 4.33. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_33'

(This stops system font character 128 being reprogrammed to a tick, and also
stops the desktop font being switched to WimpSymbol when character 128 is
encountered.)

Version 4.32. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_32'

Detail:

  Changes made to Lazarus resources only in progressing towards the
  final UI for the IAC.  Affected files are:

    * Sprites: reduced-palette sprites used where possible to minimize
      memory usage.

    * Templates: the foreground colour of icon #0 in the error dialogue
      box has been altered to be colour 0 (black) in line with the
      other template changes made in previous versions.  (This icon
      was accidentally missed.)

Admin:

  Minor changes, but untested.

Version 4.31. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_31'

  * Changed the foreground text colour to black in the "Error"
    window of the template file.

Version 4.30. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_30'

  * Added transparancy to the radio buttons.

  * Included the online indicator sprites.

Version 4.29. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_29'

  * Made background of error dialogue box white to match the UI.

  * Changed the WIMP backwindow colour to black; this stops the
    grey flash as the desktop starts up on booting.

Version 4.28. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_28'

Version 4.27. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_27'

  * Added Timeouts sprites for NCOptions startup page.
  * Removed sprites for Favourites and Telephone Dialling that were spelt
    American-style and replaced with UK variants.

Version 4.26. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_26'

Updated Sprites for Lazarus build.  Added sprites for 'WWW' and 'Options' as used on Connect.html in NCMAlite.

Version 4.25. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_25'

Doing all of recalcmodevars on Service_ModeChanging turns out to be a Bad Idea because some of the Wimp's copies of VDU variables end up out-of-date. Now only the parts pertaining to command windows are done on Service_ModeChanging

(for that was the bit we were having trouble with), and the rest is back on
Service_ModeChange.

Version 4.24. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_24'

(this was clashing with the Interlace module at one point during STB
development, and had the potential to trip us up again in the future).

No longer produces build errors if some resources are absent.

Corrected token in Japan messages file to use valid UTF-8 character.

Service call table now included by default.

Version 4.23. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_23'

Version 4.22. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_22'

Initial import of Lazarus resources.  Based on Resources/UK/NC2 with sprites file changed appropriately.

Version 4.21. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_21'

Added new "Timeout" sprites to the Japan Wimp sprite pool.  Note that these are named "TimeoutG" (for generic timeout) because they do not include modem- or Ethernet-build specific sub-text; this also allows the modem variant to remain unaltered because this uses the original sprites.

Version number NOT incremented.

Version 4.18. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_18'

Removed the code that restores the original pointer shape when leaving an error box (NCErrorBox conditional in Wimp07:finisherror).

This option is no longer necessary now that the Wimp_Extend support
ensures that the pointer appears and disappears as the user expects.

Version 4.17. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_17'

* removed obsolete PreservePointerOnError option
* turned off development option CnP

Version 4.14. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_14'

Bugfix: if a >=256-colour sprite icon is plotted, and then a shaded and/or selected text-plus-sprite icon is plotted, where the sprite in the latter icon is unspecified (no validation string, or no 'S' command), then a SpriteOp call from within ColourTrans data aborts. This caused aborts when certain rectangles of the ImageFS options window were redrawn.

Version 4.13. Not tagged

* If pointer was hidden-until-next-mouse-move, the act of confining the mouse
  to the error box window no longer causes it to be redisplayed.
* In error boxes, the pointer and the IconHigh highlight are now initially
  positioned over the rightmost (default) button. There is one exception to
  this rule: when "Next task" is clicked in a Watchdog window, the pointer
  stays over the "Next task" button.

Version 4.13. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_13'

  builds: now behaves like desktop builds (only detects button-down events).
* When mouse pointer is hidden following Wimp_Extend 12, changes of mouse
  button state will no longer cause the pointer to be reinstated.

Version 4.12. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_12'

Added options file for Ursula_RiscPC builds: similar to Ursula options file, but without UTF8 support (it's unlikely the rest of the modules will be updated sufficiently for this to be useful) and without the development cut-n-paste support. Also removed module postfix (we don't want "Ursula" appearing during a *Help Modules).

Retagged as bavison_Wimp-4_11.

Optimisation to new WimpSymbol substitution code: in icons containing fonts other than the desktop font, the substitution table is only calculated when a symbol character is encountered.

Embryonic cut-n-paste support introduced (currently in desktop builds only):
  * workspace is allocated and initialised;
  * extended Wimp_GetCaretPosition implemented;
  * pushfontstring adapted to allow insertion of arbitrary control sequences in
    font strings (to allow selected text to be plotted in inverted colours).
Inverted, unfilled text icons now work properly again in <256-colour modes.
Reworked NC error box code: see Doc.IconHigh.

Version 4.11. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_11'

* Deprecated Font SWIs no longer used
* Height of UTF-8 strings now calculated correctly
* Fancy fonts in icons are now aligned the same as outline desktop-font icons
* Text rubout boxes for icons with text above the sprite are correctly sized

Lazy WimpSymbol subsitution implemented: characters are only substituted if
they are not already present in the font. For the first time, substitution
now works in UTF-8 text - but for the proper Unicode positions of the
relevant symbols, instead of usurping undefined positions (as in other
alphabets).

Version 4.10. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_10'

Adapted assembly process so that the choice of Options file (previously based purely on the "System" variable) can be overridden by passing "OPTIONS=foo" as an argument to either MkRom, or to amu/amu_machine directly, or indirectly, by specifying it in the components file for a build. To accomplish this, it was necessary to switch from using aasm to objasm - hence the large number of source files affected in this commit.

Version 4.09. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_09'

Bugfix: the opening-windows list could get corrupted if int_flush_opens was called while a command window was active - but only if autoscrolling of windows was compiled in. In practice, this meant that OmniClient often hung desktop machines.

Version 4.08. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_08'

Service_SwitchingOutputToSprite code optimised: graphics parameters are now only cached when making the first Wimp_PlotIcon call while output is switched to a sprite, and upon return to screen output after such an occurrence.

All error box templates featuring "border" icons updated to have button type
0 (never). This prevents IconHigh from mistakenly allowing them to be selected.

Version 4.07. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_07'

Version 4.07. Tagged as 'Wimp-4_07'

UTF-8 support from previous version switched in; additional alphabet- conditional support added as follows:

* Correctly converts character index returned from Font_FindCaret into byte
  index into raw string.
* Left-arrow, right-arrow, delete-left and delete-right now act as far as
  the next character boundary, instead of to the next byte.
* Menu item text justification works again (it relies on overwriting spaces
  with hard space characters, which are two-byte characters in UTF-8).
* General key handling code has been rewritten. The Wimp now has three
  internal key input buffers - one each for taking keyboard-generated,
  task-generated, and function-key-generated strings. Each input buffer is
  processed in chunks of one character, rather than one byte; malformed
  UTF-8 characters are rejected, so tasks don't have to worry about them
  (simplifying their character-handling code). There is also a key output
  buffer, to ensure that (UTF-8) sequences of Key_Pressed events are not
  broken up.
* As a result of the above, multiple calls to Wimp_ProcessKey are now
  possible between calls to Wimp_Poll. Previously, this resulted in bytes
  getting jumbled up - making it useless for input of UTF-8 characters.
* Multi-byte characters are inserted into writeable icons in one go, so you
  don't see a brief flicker of the "malformed character" symbol while the
  initial bytes are being inserted.
* Multi-byte characters that don't entirely fit in a writeable icon buffer
  are not inserted at all.
* A new validation string command ("U") can limit the contents of a
  writeable by number of characters, instead of bytes. This will hide the
  character sizes from the user interface.
* Allowable characters (validation string command "A") now works on Unicode
  characters and character ranges.
* Various other minor bugs are fixed (Wimp_ProcessKey 13 can activate a
  writeable menu item, Shift-arrow keys are always consistent in firing off
  Key_Pressed events, etc.)
* Password icons supported: one symbol is displayed for each character
  (instead of for each byte); the display character (validation string
  command "D") can be any UTF-8 character; correctly displays the caret
  after set-caret-by-index calls, even though characters in the processed
  string are different width to those in the raw string, in password icons.

Other changes:
* The border around NC-style error boxes is resized when the error window
  is grown or shrunk.
* Messages, CmdHelp and Template files made consistent across resource
  directories, including support for all Ursula features.
* ShrinkableAreas turned back on in System=RCA builds.
* User interface features of desktop OS builds standardised.
