Improve compatibility.
JIRA issue: CORE-8002
- Fix the default values of AutoCompletionChar
and PathCompletionChar in cmd.exe.
- Populate "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command
Processor" registry key like Win2k3 does.
If East Asian people were unable
to see the Latin characters, it
becomes a barrier to mutual
understanding.
FontLink will break that barrier.
JIRA issue: CORE-9616
JIRA issue: CORE-15480
- Modify font substitutes.
- Unify the lock variables.
- Add FONTLINK and
FONTLINK_CHAIN structures.
- Add FontLink_Create and
FontLink_Destroy functions.
- Add FontLink_Chain_Init,
FontLink_Chain_Free,
FontLink_Chain_LoadReg,
FontLink_Chain_Populate, and
FontLink_Chain_FindGlyph
functions.
- Implement FontLink.
- Add font file DroidSansFallback.ttf
for LiveCD.
Reverts #6551
This caused the non-English programs menu
items to not be populated.
JIRA issue: CORE-12328 will have to be
reopened afterwards and approached
differently
JIRA issue: CORE-19652 will get resolved
Follow-up to #6929.
Latin accented characters will be able to
be mixed in East Asian text by FontLink
framework in the future.
JIRA issue: CORE-9616
- Modify boot/bootdata/hivesft.inf.
- Add "tahoma.ttf,Tahoma" entry to
Asian FontLink registry values.
We set "LoadIMM" to zero in order to disable Cicero.
The name of "LoadIMM" is a brain-dead name. This name
means Cicero despite of its name (brain-dead).
They use a human-confusing name intentionally.
JIRA issue: CORE-19320
- Set HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\
CurrentVersion\IMM:LoadIMM to 0.
- Add warning comments to the brain-dead name "LoadIMM".
* Remove a hardcoded copyright string and move into localizable resources.
* Remove the PROMPT environment variable from clean installs of ReactOS. By default, the command prompt uses $P$G (path + '>') as its prompt settings and does not require this environment variable. Clean installs of Windows Server 2003 do not include this environment variable either. I documented this environment variable in our wiki if anyone would like to set it on their own ReactOS installs.
* Remove the new line above the copyright notice when the information line is turned off.

This removes all fake apiset forwarders,
and handles apisets inside ntdll.
This is not 100% compatible with how windows does it, but it should be good enough for us.
And deprecate corresponding boot types "Drive" and "Partition".
These are replaced by the more general "BootSector" boot type.
Finish the unification of the code, started in commit ff85aa0c3,
that loads and boots disk MBR, partition VBR or boot sector in file.
A "WarnDeprecated()" helper is added to warn the user about the
deprecated features, and to inform them to adjust their FREELDR.INI
file in accordance.
In addition, bump FreeLoader version to 3.2 (at last!): a lot of
features have been added or deprecated since its last release.
[FREELDR] Add "WindowsVista" boot type
[FREELDR] Set GDT correctly for Vista
[FREELDR] Map first page of memory, this is an observed behavior, and
also increases stability boot Checked windows 2003 SP2 ntoskrnl with
freeloader.
[SDK] Don't assert on big keys in bootloader

- UiMessageBox(): Enlarge the default buffer used to printf msgbox strings.
- TuiUpdateDateTime(): When displaying the time, don't pad too much
with spaces on the left.
- TuiDrawShadow():
* Pre-calculate whether we need to show the right/bottom shadows,
and whether the right-shadow has a double width.
* Cap the right and bottom upper-bound coordinates before looping,
in order to avoid buffer overflows if the given coordinates go
beyond the screen.
- TuiDrawMsgBoxCommon(): Improve how the message box centering
calculations are done:
* When the "full-UI" is used (and center-menu is used), try to
center the message box in the space between the header and
the status bar.
* Ensure the top-left box corner is inside the screen, in case
the calculated message box borders go off-screen.
- TuiCalcMenuBoxSize():
* Uniformize the way the menu box coordinates are calculated.
* Reduce the space between menu box margins and the longest item.
* Ensure the top-left menu corner is inside the screen, in case
the calculated menu box borders go off-screen.
A NULL pointer (not necessarily the terminating one) is a valid entry
in the Argv argument vector, according to the ARC specification
(Section 4.4 "Loaded-Program Conventions").
Thus, such pointer needs to be ignored when searching over the
argument vector.
Addendum to commits d05be0da3 and bd451f240.
This is required for POSIX compliance, which the ARC specification obeys.
See Section 2.1.2.2.1 (ANSI X3.159-1989) or 5.1.2.2.1 (ISO/IEC 9899:x)
"Program startup":
```
If they are declared, the parameters to the main function shall obey
the following constraints:
— The value of argc shall be nonnegative.
— argv[argc] shall be a null pointer.
[...]

Granted, if the while-loop is not run, this means there is no memory
available at all on the computer where FreeLdr is running, which is
quite unexpected. But do the initialization anyways, in order to avoid
more obscure bugs down the line.
On the other hand, PageLookupTableMemAddress doesn't need to be
pre-initialized, since it gets initialized unconditionally afterwards.
Avoids dereferencing list entries to sections/items when these lists are empty.
IniParseFile(): Emit an error to the debug log when a candidate setting
is outside a section and skip it, instead of popping up an error on the UI.
This was a MinGW-specific, non-MS-DDK/WDK-compatible define, that was
used to mark NTOS kernel/hal exports, instead of NTSYSAPI etc.
We have since fixed that, and changed the way Freeldr (and rossym)
manages these, see commits:
186c8b72d (r16028), 51f0dfd30 (r17651) and 526efd2ee (r24359)

JIRA issue: CORE-19360
- Add "IME File" registry value
as "msctfime.ime" at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\IMM.
- Modify UserIsCiceroEnabled
function for preparation of
CTF IME.
Based on CORE-19346 "segoe-ui-symbo.patch".
In order to display gender glyphs (U+2642 and
U+2640; ♂ and ♀), we add a font substitute from
"Segoe UI Symbol" to "Arial".
ReactOS Arial has many symbol glyphs, so I think
we can use it for "Segoe UI Symbol" font substitute.
The glyph size problem will be fixed in #6156.

Introduce the initial changes needed to get other processors up and into kernel mode.
This only supports x86 as of now but is the first real step towards using other system processors.
