Specific Contributions
The known contributions for this version are, in the order specified in the whatsnew:
- Olivier Galibert added a new option -update_in_pause which enables updating the screen bitmap while the game is paused. This is useful for debuggin in some scenarios (and gets in the way in others).
- Dirk Best added the new VIDEO_TYPE_NONE to indicate that there is no screen, and fixed internal UI displays to ignore resolution parameters if it is specified.
- Atari Ace added missing consts to the files in the emu, lib, and osd directories.
- Atari Ace updated drivers to use const structs and arrays where possible.
- Sonikos made shisen improvements:
- added dips location
