* split namco c169 roz chip from namcos2 by making it a device (nw)
some reorganization still needed (eg move init stuff to config)
* push on this way, old non-device code was working by chance (nw)
* use std::fill instead of memset
* tidy (nw)
* split out the c355 sprites into a device too (nw)
* this isn't used (nw)
* also not used (nw)
* split out c123 tilemap chip
* modern here too (nw)
* namco system2 sprite chip is a device, move content of machine/namcoic.h to a text file in 'etc' as it's not really code at all, and the cpp file is no longer needed
* Namco System 2 ROZ is a device (so only gets created on games that have it, avoids a crash in old code in tilemap viewer)
* untangle namcofl from namcos2 now that things are devices
* untangle namconb1 from namcos2
* untangle gal3.cpp from namcos2
* untangle namcos2 and namcos21 - part 1 (ugly part)
* untangle system2 and system21, part 2
* use c68 for c68 based games in namcos21.cpp and some cleanup / notes / reorganization / default nvrams
* naming cleanups (nw)
* c123 - move init to device config
* c169 init -> device config
* c355 init -> device config
* new clones
Four Trax (Japan) [ShouTime, The Dumping Union]
note, one of the gfx roms in the MAME set has an 'fx2' label, it should be verified.
also replaced the ROMs for the fourtraxa set, the old ones had a 0x00 fill instead of a 0xff fill but were otherwise identical, it's a weird mod of the World set that hides most of the advertising banners, replacing them with generic ones, presumably for legal reasons?
- Add and identify some extra IOC firmware revisions (v1.3 from Bitsavers)
- More descriptive names for ROMs of latest IOC revision (from Bitsavers)
imds: Remove skeleton driver; ROMs preserved as v1.4 of imds2ioc

New clones marked as NOT_WORKING
--------------------------------
Poly 1 Educational Computer (early) [Nigel Barnes, Andrew Trotman]
Poly 2 Learning System [Nigel Barnes, Andrew Trotman]
Poly Development System [Nigel Barnes, Andrew Trotman]
Merged with strnskil.cpp, with modernization and cleanups. (nw)
Add MCFG_SCREEN_RAW_PARAMS. (nw)
Added coin counters to markham, strnskil, banbam and clones.
* proposal: move z80daisy* to devices/machine
Seems to me this is a machine, not a CPU? Main reason was to stop the Z80 CPU from being dragged into systems that don't have one just because they use a Z80 family peripheral.
* missed this one (nw)
* missed a spot (nw)
* interpro: slotify mouse (nw)
Needed to make the mouse a slot device to enable it to be connected to graphics boards under development.
* add validity check (nw)
* bt45x: new devices
Basic implementation of various Brooktree RAMDAC devices. Two of these (bt457, bt458) are used by InterPro graphics boards currently under development, the others are unused/untested at this point.
* bt45x: tweak descriptions (nw)
Start replacing special device macros with additional constructors,
starting with ISA, INTELLEC 4 and RS-232 buses.
Allow an object finder to take on the target of another object finder.
(For a combination of the previous two things in action, see either the
INTELLEC 4 driver, or the Apple 2 PC Exporter card. Also check out
looping over a device finder array to instantiate devices in some
places. Lots of things no longer need to pass tags around.)
Start supplying default clocks for things that have a standard clock or
have all clocks internal.
Eliminate the separate DEV versions of the DEVCB_ macros. Previously,
the plain versions were a shortcut for DEVICE_SELF as the target. You
can now supply a string tag (relative to current device being
configured), an object finder (takes on the base and relative tag), or
a reference to a device/interface (only do this if you know the device
won't be replaced out from under it, but that's a safe assumption for
your subdevices). In almost all cases, you can get the effect you want
by supplying *this as the target.
Eliminate sound and CPU versions of macros. They serve no useful
purpose, provide no extra checks, make error messages longer, add
indirection, and mislead newbies into thinking there's a difference.
Remove a lot of now-unnecessary ":" prefixes binding things relative to
machine root.
Clean up some miscellaneous rot.
Examples of new functionality in use in (some more subtle than others):
* src/mame/drivers/intellec4.cpp
* src/mame/drivers/tranz330.cpp
* src/mame/drivers/osboren1.cpp
* src/mame/drivers/zorba.cpp
* src/mame/devices/smioc.cpp
* src/devices/bus/a2bus/pc_xporter.cpp
* src/devices/bus/isa/isa.h
* src/devices/bus/isa/isa.h
* src/devices/bus/intellec4/intellec4.h
- High level emulation of serial keyboard (only sort of works; probably should be less sophisticated)
- Add double height and double width attributes
- Adjustable start of screen pointer (necessary for SET-UP mode)
- Reconfigure screen for 80/132-column and 50/60 Hz modes
dikeyboard: Add scan_complete callback (nw, sort of hacky but cit101 keyboard works worse without it)
- Use device_resolve_objects to resolve callbacks in output_latch_device (nw)
Note that this renaming is not just for human convenience; genie seems to get confused by modifications to a header called latch.h and decides to recompile everything involving gen_latch.h as well.
