Okay, just for fun, I've added a rudimentary menu system into my latest patches (V14).

This means some of the controls are now simplified (the LOWER & LEFT/RIGHT buttons on the front panel are NOT used any longer -- no more conflicts with info/visual toggling).

The code is evolving, as needs arise, but I think I kinda like what's there at the moment.

Summary: Custom kernels with VolAdj patch, menus for adjusting it, persitent settings, a bonus Break-Out game, and kernel-based font/renderer for future extensions. The hooks for connecting to userland aren't there yet (that's next week's project), but we're getting there fast enough.
