ABOUT FEATURE DISPLAY SUPPORT
=============================
platforms present:	amigaos/beos/sdl/unix/windows
platforms missing:	dos/os2/osx

(commandline: -features)

a list of all defines to determine compile time features can be queried at
runtime, see vicefeatures.h for the respective functions and datastructures.
see initcmdline.c(cmdline_features) for a simple example.


RS232 NET SUPPORT
=================
platforms present:	amigaos/beos/sdl/unix/osx/windows
platforms missing:	dos/os2


RS232 HARDWARE SUPPORT
======================
platforms present:	sdl/unix/windows
platforms missing:	amigaos/beos/dos/os2/osx


MIDI SUPPORT
============
platforms present:	sdl/unix/osx/windows
platforms missing:	amigaos/beos/dos/os2


SOUND VOLUME GUI DISPLAY
========================
platforms present:	osx/windows
platforms missing:	amigaos/beos/dos/os2/sdl/unix
gpz note: does a slider widget not qualify?

HARDSID SUPPORT
===============
platforms present:	amigaos/dos/sdl/unix/windows
platforms missing:	beos/os2/osx
note: amigaos3/morphos/aros can only use hardsid if openpci.library is available.
note: dos uses direct PCI access, which will not work when run from os/2 or windows.
note: unix needs /dev/sid to be present (kernel module), most likely only works on linux.
note: windows needs hardsid.dll to be present.


CATWEASEL SUPPORT
=================
platforms present:	amigaos/dos/sdl/unix/windows
platforms missing:	beos/os2/osx
note: amigaos3/morphos/aros can only use cw if catweaselsid.device or openpci.library is available.
note: dos uses direct PCI access, which will not work when run from os/2 or windows.
note: unix needs either /dev/sid or /dev/misc/sid to be present (kernel module), most likely only works on linux.
note: windows needs \\.\SID6581_* to be present (device driver).

COPY/PASTE SUPPORT
==================
platforms present:	amigaos/beos/unix/osx/windows
platforms missing:	dos/os2/sdl

raw Ultimax image                               sdl/unix

a list of all cartridges can be queried at runtime, see cartridge.h all UIs should be converted to use the API 
mentioned above. the status for this transition looks like this:

platforms present:      sdl/unix/msdos/windows
platforms missing:      amigaos/beos/os2/osx
