need interactively do settings anymore.

12-Oct-2003 by Matthias Braun
-Fixed a bug in iXY classes.
-Added note about black screen to readme
-fixed bug where MiniMapView was drawing outside it's view space, leading to
crashes.
-add signal handlers to make it abort more nicely in error case (don't stay in
mouse/keyboard grab mode)
-fixed a series of bugs where I accidently passed a Surface pointer instead of a
Surface to the blit functions. C++ was evil enough to use the
Surface::Surface(bool) constructor to create a new Surface instead of getting
me an error.

11-Oct-2003 by Matthias Braun

-fixed bug where minimap could be moved outside screen
02-Oct-2003 by Matthias Braun
-did refactoring work on the surface/DDHardSurface interfaces. DDHardSurface is
now called ScreenSurface, and is used in 99% of all cases where we need to
access video memory.
-screen is defined in ScreenSurface.hpp now. Consequently no code in the Lib
subdir has the ability to know details about the screen which makes the
separation alot cleaner.
-Removed some unused code

-added code to construct SDL_RWops in physfs files
12-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-use the physfs for the colortable cache now
-removed lots of unused code from Surface class
-removed the screenshot function (this allowed to remove the BMP saver too).
because there are external screenshot tools around.
11-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-removed more win32 specific code
-removed #ifdef USE_SDLs, the code is enabled by default now
-added a new commandline parser
-smaller fixes/cleanups
10-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-more random cleanups
-more cleanups so that the Stub directory is empty now
-fixed the bug where the TileEngine didn't correctly draw the last line
-removed the strange PObject class (still some utility classes which formerly
dealt with PObject are there and are - as before - quiet useless). The long
story:
It seemed like PObject was planed as some generic base type which provided a
uniform interface to functions like comparing 2 objects. But since the only
function is_equal in PObject wasn't virtual, and since it was never used I
decided that this stuff is quiet useless.
-removed most of the win32 specific code
9-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-worked around issues with the block allocator code for Particl2D (new operator
is overloaded, but laste C++ draft doesn't allow to return 0 from such an
overloaded new.) I added exceptions and lots of try {} catch{} blocks, let's
hope I didn't miss something.
-eleminated isValidPtr, Util.hpp and GOTTA_HAVE_IT from codewiz.hpp
8-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun

random order, so simply put some .mp3 or .ogg there)
-enabled Tile engine code again
-fixed some bugs in the blitting routines
-fixed some more small bugs I introduced while porting
-Added new keyboard handling code
-fixed lots of code that assumed a key scancode is "only" a char
-added possibility to switch windows/fullscreen mode on ALT+ENTER
-fixed some smaller bugs in Splitpath and FileUtil
-added an fps counter to the info window
-lots of small fixes in the network code
-applied a patch from Raphael Bosshard which fixes a few warnings
7-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-removed NetMessageLog class (because it only contained shit ;-)
-slightly changed NetworkServer and NetworkClient interfaces
-Added a SDL_Net version of the network code
-cleaned up socket code alot, by removing all this UDP code (a complete new
and clean network code will be needed sometime anyway...)
-more cleanup in the network code
-added a client version of the SDLNet code
-replaced all FUBARs with throw Exception, so I could remove terminate.cpp
6-Sep-2003 by Matthias Braun
-added a unix implementation of _findfirst, _findnext and _findclose
-removed some getDrive functions, was never used and supporting drives in unix
is hard :)
-we still need a big commit to replace all \\ in paths with /
-added a fastly hacked configure script (no autoconf yet)
-randomly replaced some \\ in pathnames with /
-More news on my crusade against codewiz.hpp:
*removed some unused stuff from codewiz.hpp and terminate.cpp
*added new but alot simpler logging functions to Log.hpp
-replaced all \\ in paths with / (gotta love sed). Yes, I made sure that I only
change paths (I looked at the list of stuff I change, before applying the sed
command)
-added Stub for SDLSound implementation
-added a basic SDL Event loop
-fixed more small issues
=> the main menu is displayed now and the Exit and Options buttons work :)

*removed JoystickInterface completely
*removed netPanzerGlobals.*
*removed netPanzerMain.*
------------

-changed usage of zeroMem to memset
-use memcpy instead of memcpyB

-Commented out several uses of _splitpath (which is win32 only) at FileList.cpp

TrajectoryParticle.
-made some functions in WorldViewInterface const-correct, same in ViewCamera
-commented out some direct sound code in ParticleInterface.cpp
-renamed some occurences of NULL to 0 in ParticleSystem2D
