* when a MOVE's targets are both ARegDec, the 2 extra clocks can be combined (-2 clocks in this one case)



* should you rename devices.rs traits.rs?
* add command line arguments to speed up or slow down either the frame rate limiter or the simulated time per frame

* can you make the connections between things (like memory adapters), be expressed in a way that's more similar to the electrical design?
  like specifying that address pins 10-7 should be ignored/unconnected, pin 11 will connect to "chip select", etc
* should you add a unique ID to devices, such that they can be indexed, and their step functions can reset the next_run count and run them immediately


* should you simulate bus arbitration?
* interrupts could be done in a better way
* need a better way of handling disparate reads/writes to I/O spaces, rather than having multiple devices or having a massive chunk of address space allocated, continuously
* should you modify Addressable to also take the absolute address as input?  I'm thinking of how the same device could be mapped to multiple addresses in memory instead
  of taking up a whole range of addresses
* you could modify read()/write() in Addressable to return the number of bytes read or written for dynamic bus sizing used by the MC68020+


Audio:
    * for the mixer, it might be easier to have a buffer for each source, but then you'd need to have a list of all sources, even though
      each source has a copy of the mixer as well... Likely there'd be a sub object in Source which is the buffer and anything else needed
      by the mixer

    * I'm leaning towards having an object that data is written to by the device.  The device can decide how often to update.  The issue is
      knowing what data to exclude or insert when mixing the incoming buffers
    * Removing at a sample-level granularity would compress or lengthen the waveforms, so it would be better to mix/drop a whole chunk at
      once (either predetermined by the audio system or determined by each device by the amount of samples it writes at once).  The chunk
      size could either be specified by the device in microseconds or something, or can be inferred by the sample_rate and the size of the
      chunk.

    * how do you know how big an audio frame should be?  How do other emulators do audio without stretching or compressing the waveforms, and
      can/should I do mixing as well, given that I have 2 sources, and at least for those two, they should be connected to the same output
    * you could make the sound device be an object that is passed back to the simulation section like SimplePty.  You need to either register
      a callback with the frontend sound system that is called when it needs data, or you write to a shared buffer which is passed back to the
      frontend when it needs it, or it has a copy it can use directly


Debugger:

    * how can you improve the debugger?
    * the command line definitely needs to be fixed so it prints the prompt correctly
    * debugger could maybe even allows arrows left/right for editing, and up/down for history


Genesis/Mega Drive:

    * the 68000/Z80 bank switching is probably buggy, and there's that other banking stuff in the 0xC00000 range, which isn't implemented at all
    * add support for the H/V counters at 0xC00008
    * need to implement the 1.5ms reset in the genesis controllers
    * fix ym7101 to better handle V/H interrupts (right now it sets and then the next step will clear, but it'd be nice if it could 'edge trigger')
    * make the ym7101 set/reset the v_int occurred flag based on the interrupt controller
    * refactor to allow per-line horizontal scrolling, which might need a pattern iterator than only does a line at a time
    * refactor ym7101 into multiple files perhaps.  You can separate the DMA stuff, the address/interfacing parts, and the graphics state
    * fix sprite/cell priorities so that they're drawn correctly
    * add support for the sprite overflow flag (low priority)


Macintosh:

    * issues when booting the rom, attempt to write to rom during the driver init/open phase
    * for the address bus/repeating thing in the mac with the rom and ram, can you make it work for both the 128 and 512


68000:

    * add instruction timing to M68k
    * check all instructions in the docs

    * unimplemented:  BFFFO, BFINS, CHK, ILLEGAL, NBCD, NEGX, RTR, RTD
    * >=MC68020 undecoded & unimplemented: BKPT, CALLM, CAS, CAS2, CHK2, CMP2, RTM, PACK, TRAPcc, UNPK

    * add support for MMU
    * add support for FPU
    * Coprocessor instructions: cpBcc, cpDBcc, cpGEN, cpScc, cpTRAPcc

    * add more m68k tests and try to test against a working impl (m68k-test-suite project)


Z80:
    * add instruction timings to Z80
    * unimplemented: CPD, CPDR, CPI, CPIR, DAA, IND, INDR, INI, INIR, INic, INx, OTDR, OTIR, OUTD, OUTI, OUTic, OUTx, RETI, RETN, RLD, RRD


* work on mac128/512
* work on sega genesis
* can you eventually make the system connections all configurable via a config file?
