/*-- History --*/

(09/08/2003) SMaSher v0.2
-------------------------

- Added V-Sync option
- Added new funky SN76489 (PSG) rendering mode
  (Tell me what you think of this mode)

(05/06/2003) SMaSher v0.1A
--------------------------

- Fixed a major bug in the VDP code, where writing to CRAM
  might overwrite memory, causing SMaSher to act very strange

(05/06/2003) SMaSher v0.1
-------------------------

- Initial public release


/*-- How to use ? --*/

-Input Keys :

Move  : Arrow keys
A     : A
B     : S
Start : Enter (GG Mode)
Pause : Enter (SMS Mode)

Currently, SMaSher uses the Win32 Key messages (and not DirectX)
It's not possible to re-configure the controls (yet)

-Fast Foward:

Yes, I have implemented a fast forward button :-)
Use '~' on your keyboard.
Note: Fast Forward is disabled, when you have enabled VSync

-Screenshots:

SMaSher will save to screenshots to the directory specified in
the Configuration screen, and will automatically number it
(currently there is support for 100 screenshots per game)

-Drag and drop:

Just drag you favorite game on SMaSher, and drop it. This will load
games much faster, since the Win32 fileselector is slow.

-Command line options:

Currently you can only use the game as parameter.
Example: SMaSher.exe game.sms

-Save States:

Due to some bugs with the save states, this feature is disabled

-Bios Support:

Not implemented currently, will be added in the future
