the sfrushrkwo set is the only one we have that is somewhat playable, while the other two get stuck waiting for other players. Also the two new sets need quite some time to boot after controls calibration (nw)
(nw) In future, could people please use stable branches when updating
3rd-party libraries, not unstable development snapshots? It will help
with stability.
Removed colon (":") from image_interface value that was preventing some front-ends, such as QMC2, from being able to launch ColecoVision software from the software list (the software rom itself ended up being omitted so it just booted the main BIOS, like starting a real CV without a game inserted.) (nw)
New Clone Added

Small improvement for 7493.
Convert 9316 from subdevice to delegate.
Convert 74107 from subdevice style to delegate.
Also refactored inconsistencies in other parts of the code. (nw)
This is currently not used since performance drops by about 40%. The
typical use case would be circuits a lot more complex than those we
currently emulate where the 2*log(n) advantage really applies. (nw)
The reason is that the LUA console, HTTP server and other features relied on the command line arguments being "pre-parsed". Part of the softlist cleanup was to sanitize where command line parsing occurs. This change moves the setup of the LUA console (and other capabilities such as the HTTP server) to the correct place in the new order.
This change also changes around how command line arguments are passed around; specifically I changed argc/argv to be std::vector<std::string>
Note this is not passed around 'const', the reason being that the command line processing will now "eat" the vector
* Eliminates the need for emu_options::update_cached_options() by providing a hook for when option values change
* This is a preliminary fix to the issue identified in PR#2065
* More softlist related refactoring:
- We now only parse the command line (with core_options::parse_command_line()) once
- Options that are set up during slot and image setup go through a 'value_specifier' function
- Eliminated the command line postprocessing
Also fix key labels and make default mapping match physical layout where possible.
This is a truly bizarre layout - the row between QWERTY and numbers is jammed in wherever it will fit.
The "triangle" key isn't mapped, I don't know what it does or how to test it.
