Sat Jan  3 17:15:56 1998  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@lrc.epfl.ch>

	* [debugger/db_disasm.c]
	Added cpuid and cmpxchg instructions.

	* [if1632/builtin.c] [relay32/builtin32.c]
	Fixed broken -dll option with Win32 DLLs.

	* [include/heap.h]
	Added SYSTEM_LOCK/SYSTEM_UNLOCK macros.

	* [configure.in] [misc/lstr.c]
	Added check for wctype.h.
	Commented out --enable-ipc option (IPC code has been broken for a
	long time anyway).

	* [scheduler/critsection.c] [scheduler/event.c]
	  [scheduler/mutex.c] [scheduler/semaphore.c]
	Implemented Win32 synchronization objects.

	* [scheduler/synchro.c]
	Implemented WaitForMultipleObjects and related functions.

	* [scheduler/thread.c]
	If possible, use clone() in CreateThread().

	* [scheduler/thread.c] [scheduler/process.c]
	Made thread and process waitable objects.
	Thread and process id values are now different from the pointers
	they represent.

	* [win32/k32obj.c]
	Moved to scheduler directory.
	Added function table for waiting operations on objects.

	* [files/file.c] [memory/virtual.c]
	Added new K32OBJ function table.

Sun Jan  1 16:48:23 1997  Andreas Mohr <100.30936@germany.net>

	* [files/file.c]
	Fixed my patch for GetTempFileName16() as needed.
	It was ...Name32A() that didn't work properly, not ...Name16().

	* [graphics/x11drv/brush.c]
	Fixed a BadMatch error.

	* [msdos/int21.c]
	Fixed INT21_FindNextFCB() to get correct volume labels e.g.
	in "file open" dialog.

	* [multimedia/joystick.c] [relay32/winmm.spec]
	Stub JoyGetPosEx().

	* [scheduler/process.c] [relay32/kernel32.spec]
	Implemented RegisterServiceProcess().

Wed Dec 31 11:14:43 1997  Lawson Whitney  <lawson_whitney@juno.com>

	* [if1632/kernel.spec] [if1632/relay.c]
	Define CallProcEx32w - Thanks to Marcus Meissner for his excellent
	CallProc32W.

	* [loader/module.c]
	Take a shot at defining FreeLibrary32W.

Sun Dec 28 12:44:04 1997  Kai Morich <kai.morich@rhein-neckar.netsurf.de>

	* [controls/menu.c]
	Menu modification from WM_INITMENUPOPUP message fixed.
	Menu items now can have different wID and hSubMenu (Win95 behavior).

	* [misc/cpu.c]
	Improved IsProcessorFeaturePresent.

Sun Dec 28 03:21:08 1997  Ove Kaaven <ovek@main.arcticnet.no>

	* [include/winsock.h] [misc/winsock.c]
	Fixed WS_SOL_SOCKET for setsockopt(), and made select() return
	empty fd_sets if timeout.

	* [objects/palette.c]
	AnimatePalette() bailed out if entire palette is animated. Fixed.

	* [objects/dib.c]
	Added some code to SetDIBitsToDevice() and its helpers to fix
	some offseting problems.

	* [objects/cursoricon.c]
	Made CreateCursor32() convert the instance handle properly. Made
	DestroyCursor() return correct success status.

Wed Dec 24 17:56:34 1997  Dimitrie O. Paun  <dimi@cs.toronto.edu>

	* [windows/syscolor.c]
	Added definition of GetSysColorPen16/32. This function does not
	exist in the Win32 API but is a very close (and natural) relative
	to GetSysColorBrush function. Moreover, it is *very* much used 
	within Wine since there are a lot of places where we need to draw
	lines with the standard colors.

	* [controls/button.c] [controls/combo.c] [controls/icontitle.c]
	  [controls/menu.c] [controls/progress.c] [controls/scroll.c]
	  [controls/updown.c] [graphics/painting.c] [misc/tweak.c]
	  [windows/defwnd.c] [windows/graphics.c] [windows/nonclient.c]
	Replaced references to sysColorObjects with the appropriate
	call to GetSysColorBrush32/GetSysColorPen32. There is no need to
	expose the implementation of these functions, even within Wine.
	This makes the code easier to understand, debug, maintain.

	* [controls/uitools.c]
	Modified most of the functions in this file to use the now
	standard pens (i.e. GetSysColorPen32). These functions made
	*heavy* use of standard pens so I expect a lot less
	CreatePen/DeleteObject calls can do only good...:)
	Plus some minor modifications (*no* functional changes though).

	* [controls/updown.c]
	Used the new DrawFrameControl32 function to paint the control.
	I also deleted UDDOWN_DrawArrow since it was no longer required.

Tue Dec 23 00:03:33 1997  Steinar Hamre  <steinarh@stud.fim.ntnu.no>

	* [configure.in]
	Added check for -lw.

	* [include/wintypes.h] [tools/build.c]
	Changes to make the assembly understandable for even sun as.
	".ascii" -> ".string", "call %foo" -> "call *%foo",
	"pushw/popw %[cdes]s" written out to ".byte 0x66\npushl/popl %[cdes]s".

	* [memory/ldt.c]
	#ifdef added so <sys/seg.h> will not be included on Solaris.

Mon Dec 22 18:55:19 1997  Marcus Meissner <msmeissn@cip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de>

	* [configure.in]
	Added XF86DGA check.

	* [multimedia/dsound.c][relay32/dsound.spec][include/dsound.h]
	Started DirectSound. Only stubs for now.

	* [graphics/ddraw.c][include/ddraw.h][relay32/ddraw.spec]
	Started to implement DirectDraw. Mostly stubs, some
	testcases work. Requires the XF86DGA extension to XFree86.
	(check demo/blizdemo.exe from the Diablo CD-ROM).

	* [files/drive.c]
	Return correct "CDFS" fsname so Diablo is a bit happier.

Sun Dec 21 21:45:48 1997  Kevin Cozens <kcozens@interlog.com>

	* [misc/registry.c]
	Fixed bugs in the routines which read the Windows '95 registry
	files. Added extra information regarding the format of the Windows
	'95 registry files.

This file documents the necessary procedure for adding a new language
to the list of languages that Wine can display system menus and forms
in. Currently at least the following languages are still missing:
Bulgarian, Chinese, Greek, Icelandic, Japanese, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese,
Romanian, Russian, Croatian, Slovak, Swedish, Turkish, and Slovanian.
To add a new language you need to be able to translate the relatively
few texts, of course. You will need very little knowledge of
programming, so you have almost no excuses for not adding your language,
right? We should easily be able to support 20 languages within a few
months, get going! Apart from re-compilation it'll take you about an
hour.
To add a new language to the list of languages that Wine can handle
you must...
1. Edit ./wine.man (search for -language) to show the new language
abbreviation.
2. Edit misc/main.c variable "Languages" to contain the new language
abbreviation and language ID. Also edit macro "USAGE" to show the
new abbreviation.
3. Edit include/options.h enum "WINE_LANGUAGE" to have a member called
LANG_XX where XX is the new abbreviation.
4. Edit ole/ole2nls.c function "GetUserDefaultLCID" to contain a
case for your language by uncommenting the return value of it.
5. Edit resources/sysrec.c to include "sysres_XX.h" where XX is the
abbreviation for your language. (That file will be produced auto-
matically.) Edit variable "SYSRES_Resources" to contain an entry
for your language.
6. Create a new file, resources/sysres_XX.rc, where XX is the
abbreviation that you chose. Your best bet is to copy one of the
other *.rc files and start translating. [Warning: the author of
this file does not know the details of the structure of these
files. There seems to be no need to, however.]
In menus, the character "&" means that the next character will
be highlighted and that pressing that letter will select the item.
You should place these "&"s suitably for your language, not just
copy the positions from (say) English. In particular, items within
one menu should have different highlighted letters.
7. Edit resources/Makefile.in to add the name of the new file to the
SYSRES_SRCS variable.
8. Edit ole/ole2nls.c function "GetLocaleInfoA" to contain a case for
your language.
9. Re-configure, re-make dependencies, and re-make Wine.
10. Check your new menus and forms; when they're ok, submit patches
for inclusion in the next Wine release, see file ./ANNOUNCE for
details about where to submit.

[I hope I got all the places where changes are needed. If you see any
place missing from the above list, submit a patch to this file please.
Also note that re-organization of the source code might change the list
of places.]
