HISTORY:
V1.0 (29-Nov-1999)
- first release
V1.1 (15-Aug-2008) 
- fixed: mouse cursor enabled (thanks Tony Wilen)
- fixed: savegame is saved properly now, with separated shipdata
- Kickstart calls patched properly, new keyboard handler,
  less memory requirements
- changed: OSEmu.400 is used now (update your install!)
V1.2 (25-Apr-2025) by DJ Mike
- Replaced keyboard handler - v1.1 crashed on 68000 or didn't work on other
  setups due to word write to $bfed01 (issues #2515, #5852)
- OSEmu removed and OS calls manually patched, as only needed for DOS loads
  (if upgrading, you can delete 'OSEmu.400' from the data folder)
- Blitter waits added
