Good point; fixed now in both the Makefile comment and bios.c > 2.

That's Luigi's baby; he's promised me some more patches, which I eagerly await 8) Thanks Juergen for your diffs; I've incorporated those, and activated the bound instruction as well. If anyone finds any other inactive instructions, please let me know. > 4. How about to use getopt() ? I guess I should. For now, the next snapshot is ftp://gsoft.com.au/pub/pcemu1.91pre.tar.gz; if you get a chance to test it, that'd be great. If not, I'll announce on the freebsd-emulation list when I have Luigi's patches incorporated.
