Sat Dec 23 18:15:59 1995  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@sunsite.unc.edu>

	* [configure.in] [Makefile.in] [tools/install-sh]
	New 'install' target installs Wine binary, library and man page.
	Library is now more logically named libwine.a.
	Split toolkit/ directory into library (for library code) and
	libtest (for test programs).

	* [controls/edit.c]
	Quick hack to partially support EM_PASSWORD style (avoids
	displaying your passwords on the screen when testing programs...)

	* [configure.in] [controls/menu.c] [include/resource.h]
	  [misc/commdlg.c] [misc/ole2nls.c] [misc/shell.c] [windows/msgbox.c]
	Language is now a run-time option (wine -language xx).

	* [debugger/dbg.y]
	Dump some more debugging info on crash.

	* [misc/profile.c]
	Only consider ';' as a comment if it's the first non-blank
	character on the line.

	* [miscemu/dpmi.c]
	More debugging info for real-mode callback.

	* [objects/gdiobj.c]
	Rewrote EnumObjects() to do the Right Thing.

	* [resources/sysres*]
	New directory containing system resources.

Fri Dec 22 11:24:39 GMT 1995  John Harvey <john@division.co.uk>

	* [win32/file.c] [win32/memory.c]
        Unixware doesn't have MAP_ANON ifdefed out for now.

	* [misc/dos_fs.c]
        DOS_GetDosFileName didn't truncate paths starting ./ properly.

	* [tools/build.c]
	Produces assembly code that works with the unixware assembler.

Wed Dec 20 22:22:29 +0100 1995  Morten Welinder <terra@diku.dk>

	* [miscemu/instr.c]
	INSTR_GetOperandAddr: 16-bit addresses should be masked to 16 bits.

	* [misc/dos_fs.c]
	DOS_readdir should always return directories, even if they don't
 	match the file name mask.

Tue Dec 19 18:00:00 1995  Uwe Bonnes <bon@elektron.ikp.physik.th-darmstadt.de>
	
	* [misc/exec.c]
	Give arguments to winhelp.

	* [miscemu/int21.c]
	Implemented Interrupt 21 AX=6C00 EXTENDED OPEN/CREATE.
	Created function ExtendedOpenCreateFile.
	Give for some Windows95 interrupts the return value 'not
	implemented'.

Sun Dec 17 16:51:56 EST 1995  Jim Peterson <jspeter@birch.ee.vt.edu>

	* [include/kernel32.h] [include/windows.h]
	Moved the typedefs for SYSTEMTIME and LPSYSTEMTIME from
 	include/kernel32.h to include/windows.h and declared the new Win32
 	API functions Sleep(), GetLocalTime(), and GetSystemTime().
  	Redefined INFINITE as 0xFFFFFFFF if WINELIB32.

	* [rc/rc (new file)]
	Created the shell script 'rc', which should simplify resource
 	compilation.

	* [win32/environment.c]
	Kludged around an undefined reference to wine_files.  This change
 	should be fixed some time.

	* [win32/time.c] [if1632/kernel32.spec]
	Added the functions GetSystemTime(), and Sleep().

	* [miscemu/int21.c]
	Renamed static function GetSystemTime to INT21_GetSystemTime to
 	avoid conflicts with the API function of the same name.

	* [include/wintypes.h]
	Added the SPFMT definition for printf statements.

	* [misc/shell.c] [include/shell.h]
	Changed ERROR_* defines to SHELL_ERROR_*, as they were conflicting
 	with the ones in include/winerror.h.  They should probably use the
 	versions in winerror.h, but I'm not certain, and that can be done
 	later.

	* [windows/mdi.c]
	Translated WM_MDIACTIVATE(?,(LOhwnd,HIhwnd)) messages to
 	WM_MDIACTIVATE(HIhwnd,LOhwnd) for WINELIB32.  The ? parameter
 	(boolean) was discarded with this translation.  Translated handler
 	of WM_MDISETMENU(ref,(loHMENU,hiHMENU)) to handle
 	WM_MDISETMENU(loHMENU, hiHMENU) messages in WINELIB32 (ref assumed
 	false, call DrawMenuBar() if desired).

	* [*/*]
	General explicit casts and more rigid typing to remove warnings.

	* [include/winpos.h] [windows/winpos.c]
	Changed return type of WINPOS_ChangeActiveWindow to BOOL.

	* [include/commdlg.h] [misc/commdlg.c]
	Added prototypes for ChooseColor(), CommDlgExtendedError(),
 	FindText() GetFileTitle(), GetOpenFileName(), GetSaveFileName(),
 	PrintDlg, and ReplaceText().
	Renamed the CommDlgExtendError() function to CommDlgExtendedError().
	Made GetFileTitle return a short, as per the API definition.

	* [Makefile.in]
	Added line to clean and distclean that removes temporaries from
 	the include directory.

Sat Dec 16 19:39:14 MET 1995  Steffen Moeller <smoe0024@rz.uni-hildesheim.de>

	* [controls/edit.c]
	Almost rewrote EDIT_GetLineMsg.

Sat Dec 16 13:51:48 MST 1995  Andrew Taylor <andrew@riscan.com>

	* [windows/mdi.c]
	Fixed MDITile() bug that occurs when 0 windows are present or all
	windows are minimized.

Wed Dec 12 23:30:00 1995  Uwe Bonnes <bon@elektron.ikp.physik.th-darmstadt.de>

	* [misc/profile.c]
        Try harder to find files, especially in the working directory.
	Look in $HOME/.wine too and create it there if it isn't found.

WINElib resources: a proposal
One of the current issues with WINElib is the inadequate support for accessing
resources by name. I propose the following technique (which I have already
begun to implement) to allow this:
An internal table of resource entries is provided along with a registering
function for adding a resource to this table. 'winerc' should construct
*.c files much the same way as it does now with the inclusion of a single
static 'constructor' function that registers the associated resources with
the internal mechanism like so:
static void DoIt() __attribute__ ((constructor));
static void DoIt()
{
LIBRES_RegisterResource(hello3_MENU_MAIN__bytes,
sizeof(hello3_MENU_MAIN__bytes),
"MAIN",
RT_MENU);
LIBRES_RegisterResource(hello3_DIALOG_DIADEMO__bytes,
sizeof(hello3_DIALOG_DIADEMO__bytes),
"DIADEMO",
RT_DIALOG);
... etc. ...
}
The internal table can then be searched for the resource by name.
The only potential drawback I've determined so far is this technique's
reliance on gcc's 'constructor' attribute, which disallows compilation with
some other compiler. However, I'm guessing that WINE is already heavily
dependent on gcc, so this is probably not too much of a factor.
Any comments/suggestions/criticisms will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
