Hi all Wouter, first of all: thanks for fixing that VDPCmdEngine bug!! Great work! It was *indeed* a tricky one... Now, about the machine configuration files: 1) Wouter moved three of them to the new share directory. There are still a lot of them in the src/cfg directory. What do we do with them? At least the doubles should be removed, so the TurboR GT and ST and 8250 configs in src/cfg could be removed since they are in /share/machines too. 2) Second, I propose just to move all of them to the machines directory. Later we could spread them as a 'machine pack', upload them to an FTP site or even let them be retrieved from an online database. For now, we should just put them all in /share/machines, IMO. They're not really useful in src/cfg, since they can not really be used directly. This means also the CBIOS stuff should get a machine name. 3) And what do we do with the exampleconfigs.xml? 4) About the names of the ROM files mentioned in those config files. I propose to use the names that are used on FUNet in the openMSX dir: http://www.funet.fi/pub/msx/system_roms/openMSX Those names are not perfect yet, but they are the most informative that you can find on the net (atarulum and I came to these preliminary names...). Probably all configs use these names, but I'm not entirely sure about that. Last question: Wouter, did you get a chance to think about those paths that are hardcoded? I still feel they should be more easily configurable, for porters and packagers. -- Grtjs, Manuel PS: MSX 4EVER! (Questions?
