vidmode is starting to show its age. Modern X doesn't need a config file,
and when one is not available, the list of available resolutions is quite
strange. Time to look into randr support.
The attached patch (against quakeforge git) changes the [con]width,
[con]height, and most importantly the rowbytes members of viddef_t
from unsigned to signed int, like in q2. This allows for a properly
negative vid.rowbytes which may be needed in, e.g. a DIB sections
windows driver if needed. Along with it, I changed a few places
where unsigned int is used along with comparisons against the relevant
vid.* members.
One thing I am not 100% sure is the signedness requirements of
d_zrowbytes and d_zwidth: q2 has them as unsigned but I am not sure
whether that is because they are needed as unsigned or it was just an
oversight of the id developers. They do look like they should be OK
as signed int to me, though: comments?

Note from Bill Currie: I had to do some extra changes as many
signed/unsigned comparisons were somehow missed.
Nothing in the main program currently uses Key_Progs_Init, so the object
file wasn't getting pulled into the link. However, it's quite necessary for
the client console plugin :/
This allows the vid module to load the render module and access render
specific functions before the renderer initializes, which happens to need
an initialized vid module...
Still, nothing will work: no plugins are loaded and they're all broken
anyway.
glx, sgl, glslx etc are going away, just the basics will be built: fbdev
(probably go away eventually), sdl, x11 and hopefully someday win. That's
actually the only reason anything links.
Where possible, symbols have been made static, prefixed with glsl_/GLSL_ or
moved into the code shared by all renderers. This will make doing plugins
easier but done now for link testing. The moving was done via the gl
commit.

Just about to do a release, and I realized windows users wouldn't have any
way of checking out the new renderer. I'll add wglsl when I get a chance to
do some testing.
o All instances of LIBADD/LDADD have a corresponding DEPENDENCIES
specificatiion.
o libraries now use a lib_ldflags macro to keep things consistent
o duplication of source/lib names has been minimized (particularly in
the libraries; more work needs to be done for the executables)
o automake spec blocks have been organized (again, more work needs to be
done for the executables)
Most subsystems that depend on other subsystems now call the init functions
themselves. This makes for much cleaner client initialization (more work
needs to be done for the server).
GL Quake was weird, culling front faces. Partly understandable, since
Quake's front order is clockwise and GL's default order is
counter-clockwise. However, since the order can be specified, that should
be done instead. Thus, specify the winding order as clockwise (for quake's
data), set culling for back-face removal, and then mess with the winding
direction in the mirror and fish-eye code.
Calling programs shaders was a little confusing when I use shader to refer
to the sub-programs (vertex and fragment shaders). Also, print the program
number as well.
Add GLSL directory to QF and use it for all gsls based code (instead of
GL). defines.h, types.h and funcs.h are derived from gl2.h from khronos.
Text drawing now uses triangles instead of quads.
The error was quite valid: setting GL_TEXTURE_MAX_ANISOTROPY_EXT to 0 is
incorrect. The problem was caused by the call to glTexParameterf being
before the gl_anisotropy cvar was initialized. Thus, move all of the setup
code in GL_Init_Common() to after all the checks and, more importantly,
after the call to GL_Common_Init_Cvars().
in_bind_imt is now gone. I guess mercury was right in that it was a poor
design. However, it was (and still is necessary) to support "bind" and
"unbind". Now, instead, they work only with the IMT_MOD table. IMT_MOD sits
below IMT_0 in the imt hierarchy. If the key is not bound in IMT_0+, then
IMT_MOD will be checked. This way, "bind" and "unbind" can never mess with
a user's more sophisticated binding setup.
The backquote is not always usable for toggling the console, and the new
bind system doesn't automatically bind a key to both game and console imts
(by design). Thus create a cvar that allows the "always works" console
toggle to be specified in eg $fs_globalcfg. While I'm at it, do one for the
menus, too.
The software renderers force the console size to be the same as the window
size (no scaling), but they weren't telling the console of the resize.
oops. Fixes the crash when running the software renderers with default
sizes.
in_dga -> 0 (until X is fixed)
gl_multitexture -> 1 (why was this 0? not enough support back then?)
cl_usleep -> 1 (seems to be ok)
host_mem_size -> 40 (even 32 isn't enough these days)
rate -> 10000 (we're not in the modem era any more)
cl_mem_size -> 32 (16 is not enough, 32 sounds better than 24)
o Check the return value of XF86DGADirectVideo.
o Use input_grabbed instead of in_grab for checking whether to enable dga
mouse and other grabbed actions.
Most of the guts of configure.ac have been moved to config.d and are then
brought in by m4_include. This will make maintaining configure.ac much easier.
Also drop use of PROGRAM and VERSION, using PACKAGE_NAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, and
on occasion, PACKAGE_STRING instead, and clean out some old files we no longer
need.
