      Detail:
        * Removed Acorn/ACORN from keyboard shortcuts.
        * Added Red/RED/Green/GREEN/Blue/BLUE (and an attempt at German
          versions too) to keyboard shortcuts.
        * Capitalised the 'B' in -Fully3DIconBar to hint that it's necessary in
          the short form of the switch to *WimpVisualFlags.

      Merged in RISC OS 4.02 changes (including ROM patches). Also som bugfixes. · 3b1e336c
      Ben Avison authored
      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

        Tested on Tungsten.

      Given a good thrashing. · c8e139f1
      Ben Avison authored
      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

        Tested on a "traditional" memory-mapped Tungsten.

      Shock horror - a new feature for the Wimp! And some housekeeping too. · d7d18819
      Ben Avison authored
      Detail:
        * Added new functionality for menu trees: submenus can now be opened by
          clicking on their parent menu item. This is particularly aimed at
          touchscreen devices, and is configurable via the new *Configure keyword
          WimpClickSubmenu.
        * Change to the menu inactivity timeout behaviour after auto-opening of
          submenus (either by hovering over the parent menu item or by the new
          click-to-open functionality): although all hover operations are still
          ignored for this period, any click operations *will* now be obeyed.
        * Corrected numerous misleading comments in the menu handling code.
        * Added some suspiciously absent ALIGNs in the *Configure keyword handlers.
        * Uses new ASCII case-forcing macros so there are now fewer warnings
          printed during assembly (and it should run faster now too).
        * Added an AREA directive so that objasm's -ABS switch is no longer needed.
        * Standardised ErrMem token across all Messages files that use English.
      Admin:
        Tested on a desktop machine.
        Requires HdrSrc 1.06.

      UTF-8 support from previous version switched in; additional alphabet-... · e6cf688e
      Ben Avison authored
      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...
