Alexandre Julliard 4f8c37b487 Release 960114
Sun Jan 14 13:45:22 1996  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@sunsite.unc.edu>

	* [configure.in]
	Added check for gcc strength-reduce bug.

	* [controls/listbox.c]
	Changed ListBoxDirectory() to use the new DOS file functions.

	* [controls/menu.c]
	Fixed parameters for DeleteMenu() call in ChangeMenu().

	* [debugger/stack.c]
	Also display current frame in back-trace.

	* [files/directory.c] [files/dos_fs.c] [files/drive.c] [files/file.c]
	Complete rewrite of the DOS file handling.
	Implemented per-task file handles.
	Removed default Z: drive; needs to be put explicitely in wine.ini
	if desired.

	* [loader/module.c]
	Fixed file descriptor leak in LoadModule().

	* [loader/task.c]
	Initialise PDB file handle table in TASK_CreateTask().
	Close file handles on task termination.
	Implemented SetErrorMode().

	* [misc/network.c]
	Fixed WNetGetConnection() to use GetDriveType().

	* [misc/xmalloc.c]
	Added function xstrdup().

	* [miscemu/int21.c]
	Many changes for new DOS file functions.

	* [miscemu/interrupts.c]
	Moved DOS_GetEquipment() function into INT_Int11Handler().

	* [windows/win.c]
	Bug fix: create system menu before sending WM_NCCREATE.

	* [*/*.c]
	Replaced strcasecmp and strncasecmp by lstrcmpi and lstrncmpi for
	better portability.

Sat Jan 13 16:13:02 1996  Jim Peterson <jspeter@birch.ee.vt.edu>

	* [include/wintypes.h]
	Added 'typedef HGLOBAL GOBALHANDLE;'.  This is not precisely in line
	with the true windows 'typedef HANDLE GLOBALHANDLE;', but I believe
	it should suffice.

	* [include/winsock.h]
	Added '#include <arpa/inet.h>' for various declarations.  '#ifdef'-ed
	out some old style internet address #define's.

	* [loader/task.c]
	Made MakeProcInstance() return first parameter #ifdef WINELIB32.
	Made FreeProcInstance() do nothing #ifdef WINELIB32.
	'#ifdef'-ed out TASK_AllocThunk(), as it was unused in WINELIB32.

	* [library/miscstubs.c]
	Made GetWndProcEntry16() return ACTIVATEAPP_callback() when called
	with name="ActivateAppProc".  This hardly seems correct, but it's my
	best guess as to how the emulator responds.

Sat Jan  6 17:57:45 1996  Martin von Loewis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de>

	* [if1632/kernel32.spec][win32/process.c]
	WIN32_GetProcAddress, LoadLibraryA: new functions

	* [if1632/relay32.c]
	RELAY32_GetEntryPoint: Removed code to load PE DLLs

	* [include/pe_image.h][include/pe_exe.h]
	struct pe_data: new fields base_addr,load_addr,vma_size,pe_reloc
	struct PE_Reloc_Block: new structure

	* [loader/module.c]
	MODULE_RegisterModule: new function

	* [loader/pe_image.c]
	PE_FindExportedFunction,PE_GetProcAddress: new functions
	fixup_imports: expect struct w_files* now, fill dlls_to_init,
	               load PE DLLs
	do_relocations: new functions
	calc_vma_size: renamed from dump_table
	PE_LoadImage: use malloc to allocate memory for image

	New file with usleep() function for SVR4.

	* [configure.in]
	Check for usleep() function.

Tue Jan 02 14:00:00 1996  Anand Kumria <akumria@ozemail.com.au>

	* [if1632/toolhelp.spec] [include/toolhelp.h]
	  [misc/user.c] [windows/message.c]
	Implement TOOLHELP.80 TimerCount. Fix GetTickCount.

	* [winsocket.c]
	Fixed ENOENT error.

	* [miscemu/dpmi.c]
	Implement DPMI Get Page Size (AX=0604, INT 31)

	* [memory/global.c]
	Implement TOOLHELP.72 GetMemManInfo.

Mon Jan  2 10:33:00 1996  Thomas Sandford <t.d.g.sandford@prds-grn.demon.co.uk>

	* [if1632/callback.c]
	CallWindowProc() - When calling RELAY32_CallWindowProc, check
	whether lParam should be a SEGPTR, and if so convert it to one.

	* [if1632/gdi.spec] [if1632/kernel32.spec] [if1632/user32.spec]
	Numerous functions added, mostly calls to original (win16)
 	functions.  Note that some (many) of these are probably not
 	strictly correct, but with these additions freecell will at least
 	display its main window though it is garbled.

	* [if1632/winprocs.spec]
	Completely rewritten - all WndProcs now have win32 versions to
	help with the lparam SEGPTR fix in callback.c

	* [include/kernel32.h]
	LPTCSTR defined.

	* [include/peexe.h]
	Definition of PE_Export_Directory amended.

	* [include/resource32.h]
	New file.

	* [include/stackframe.h]
	Definition of MAKE_SEGPTR macro #ifdef'd out and replaced with
	prototype for replacement function in memory/selector.c which
	can operate on any given memory address. This is currently
	required for win32 support. It is a dreadful cludge, and will
	certainly slow down other programs. If you are not interested
	in win32 development you may wish to reverse this patch.

	* [include/windows.h]
	Definition of SW_SHOWDEFAULT added.

	* [loader/pe_image.c]
	Extensive rewrites of xmmap() fixup_imports().
	PE_LoadImage() - initialisation of bss added, extraction of
	module name fixed, initialisation of DLL added.
	PE_InitDLL() - now does something.
	PE_Win32CallToStart() - initialisation of TEB pointed to by
	fs added.
	PE_InitTEB() created to perform TEB initialisation.

	* [memory/selector.c] 
	New function MAKE_SEGPTR() - see include/stackframe.h above.

	* [misc/user32.c]
	USER32_RegisterClassA(), CreateWindowExA() memory allocation
	method changed. This is probably now unnecessary with the
	new MAKE_SEGPTR handling code.
	USER32_DefWndProcA() removed to win32/winprocs.c
	USER32_TranslateMessage added.

	* [tools/build.c]
	handling of win32 spec files changed to support gcc2.6.X
	this requires optimisations to be disabled.

	* [win32/resource.c] [win32/newfns.c] [win32/heap.c] [win32/winprocs.c]
	New files.

	* [win32/Makefile.in]
	New files heap.c, newfns.c, resource.c and winprocs.c added to build.

	* [win32/file.c]
	New function W32_SetHandleCount.

	* [win32/init.c]
	WIN32_GetModuleHandle() - now returns handle of running process
	if called with NULL.
	GetStartupInfoA() - set cbReserved2 to 0.

	* [win32/memory.c]
	VirtualAlloc() - set mmap() file parameter to -1 instead of 0 to make
	it work with FreeBSD. Also check for return value. Removed extra
	return.

	* [windows/winpos.c]
	ShowWindow() - SW_SHOWDEFAULT handling kludged in.

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.
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 resources/Makefile.in variable "LANGUAGES" to include a new
abbreviation for the language.
2. Edit ./wine.man (search for -language) to show the new language
abbreviation.
3. Edit misc/main.c variable "langNames" to contain the new language
abbreviation. Also edit macro "USAGE" to show the new abbreviation.
4. Edit include/options.h enum "WINE_LANGUAGE" to have a member called
LANG_XX where XX is the new abbreviation.
5. Edit misc/ole2nls.c function "GetUserDefaultLCID" to contain an
extra case for your language. The correct return values seem to
be a mystery, but don't worry.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. Edit misc/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.]
