Port forwarding allows the emulator to host servers that can be
accessed from outside the virtual network.
The code for parsing the preference option "redir" is adapted from
qemu code. The rest was already implemented.
This patch fixes one lingering problem with the 64-bit clipboard code; the way it was designed, the Mac clipboard was being cleared every time a single item was being requested by GetScrap, causing clipboards with multiple items to be unceremoniously whittled down to one. On the other hand, a similar issue was causing some items to get duplicated on the host pasteboard. This patch fixes the issue by making conversion between the host pasteboard and the Mac clipboard a singular operation; when the pasteboard data changes on the host side, it is all converted and sent to the Mac pasteboard at once, and similarly, all Mac clipboard data is sent to the host pasteboard in one operation. Also, data from the host side is copied to the Mac clipboard only if it has changed since the last check, which should improve performance as conversions will not be done over and over every time the Mac side checks whether the scrap has changed.
In addition, I've added a rudimentary PICT converter. It's rudimentary at the moment, only going in one direction, converting to PICT and not from PICT, and currently it always rasterizes the source image and creates a PICT containing bitmap data. However, it's a start, and it should solve Ronald's issue with copying images from OS X to Mac OS. In the future, more could possibly be added. I've put the new PICT code in the main source directory instead of in the MacOSX subdirectory, so that it can be used by other platforms if needed.
I would like to leave the license on the new PICT code as "Public Domain" if that is okay.
Thanks,

The goal is to get rid of the build files under src/MacOSX by
allowing the ones under src/Unix to produce the same outputs.
Note: This currently has video problems, but this is consistent
with what you get when building out of src/MacOSX.
Added code to parse the Classic Mac OS 'styl' resources, allowing formatted text to be copied and pasted out of SheepShaver, not just plain text. In order to do this, I made some changes to the emul_op mechanism, patching ZeroScrap() in addition to the scrap methods that were already being patched. The reason for this is that since we need to read data from multiple items that are on the clipboard at once, we cannot simply assume a zero at the beginning of each PutScrap() operation.
This patch uses RTF to store styled text on the host side; unfortunately, since the APIs to convert to and from RTF data are in Cocoa but not in CoreFoundation, I had to write the new portions in Objective-C rather than C, and changed the extension from .cpp to .mm accordingly. In the future, if we are confident that this file will only be used on Mac OS X 10.6 and up, we can rewrite the Pasteboard Manager code to use NSPasteboardReading/Writing instead. This would allow us to read and write NSAttributedString objects directly to and from the pasteboard, which would make sure we were always using the OS's preferred rich text format internally instead of hard-coding it specifically to RTF as in the current implementation.
I believe that this patch should also fix the problem Ronald reported with copying accented characters.
Since I am new to 68k assembly and the emul_op mechanism, I would appreciate if someone could double-check all my changes to make sure that I have done everything correctly.
Thanks,
Charles

For my work on digital preservation it's important to have "golden"
disk images that are not corrupted by user action. In order to enable
this, I've added support for VHD virtual disks (especially snapshots !)
to the Linux and OS X versions of BasiliskII and SheepShaver.
The support uses the open source libvhd library which is part of xen,
available here:
http://www.xen.org/products/xen_source.html
The piece that's needed is libvhd which is in tools/blktap2 and it can
be separately compiled.
The vhd-util enables creation of vhd disks and snapshots.
Compiling libvhd for OS X is non-trivial and required 1) a new config
and 2) a number of small changes to the include files and c files.
Compiling for linux is a snap.
I use this as follows.
1) create my "golden image" gold.dsk in the usual way
2) create a snapshot: vhd-util snapshot -n gold.vhd -p gold.dsk -m
3) use the snapshot in my prefs file
In my work the golden images are in an AFS system which means the golden
images can reside at "universal" addresses. The snapshots are initially
tiny, so a complete virtual machine configuration -- prefs + snapshot is
quick to download for the end user.
The snapshots are copy on write which has the pleasant side effect of
letting the end user keep any changes.
Add bin/cue support. The following should work:
1) Basilisk and SheepShaver with sdl-audio and bincue on linux and os x
2) SheepShaver with bincue and core audio on os x
