* Fixed The King of Dragons (bootleg)
* A _lot_ of rewrites, notably in the video system and the general Kawaks architecture,
which gives a significant speedup on 2xSai, SuperEagle, SuperSai, Scanlined 2xSai,
will make the eventual addition of new systems easier, faster and more stable,
and allows the following :
* Added sprite transparencies, using Nebula tables.
Tables should be named gamename.bld and put in the BLEND directory (ex: SFA3.BLD)
* Added "Monitor dot matrix" blitter. Give it a try :)
* Added support for ElSemi's Cheater program. Cheater must be started before Kawaks
* Added menu items to control sound frequency. No need to edit WinKawaks.ini anymore for that.
* Optimised 'Interframe blending' code. Should be significantly faster with most blitters, now
* Rewrote DirectInput code: Hopefully fixes most controler problems
(mail me if it fixes your controler problems or not)
* Fixed Screenshot Factory blink and Tile viewer if Interframe Blending is enabled
* Fixed Scanlines 50% for some video cards (S3...)
* Hopefully fixed some screenshot issues
* Fixed flash frames in Marvel Vs Capcom
* Fixed ending in Marvel Vs Capcom
* NeoGeo isn't affected anymore by correct ration settings. Meaning it now looks better if these
options are enabled (espeacially with Normal blitter)
* Changed the way the video blitter selection works. For example, now, Shift+F3 is a toggle between
scanlines, 50% scanlines, and zoomX2...
* Added some keyboard shortcuts to the Load game, Screenshot Factory, Cheat boxes
* Added some keyboard shortcuts to the English menus
* Fixed Shot factory window size
* A few romset changes to match the latest conventions and dumps (affects CYBOTSJ, DDSOMU, SFAR1)
