Fceux SVN r1365

Fceux SVN r1365 is released.FCEUX is a cross platform, NTSC and PAL Famicom/NES emulator that is an evolution of the original FCE Ultra emulator.

As the X implies, it is an all-encompassing FCEU emulator that gives the best of all worlds for the general player, the ROM-hacking community, and the Tool-Assisted Speedrun Community.

r1360
Win32 - Sound Dialog - cleanup, when sound is off, all controls are grayed out
r1361
Win32 - -palette commandline option
r1362
set up a GetMainHWND function so child windows can get the parent handle easily
r1363

r1364
Revert to old table noise value

DOSBox for S60 (20090623)

DOSBox for S60 (20090623) is released.DOSBox emulates an Intel x86 PC, complete with sound, graphics, mouse, joystick, modem, etc., necessary for running many old MS-DOS games that simply cannot be run on modern PCs and operating systems. However, it is not restricted to running only games. In theory, any MS-DOS or PC-DOS (referred to commonly as "DOS") application should run in DOSBox, but the emphasis has been on getting DOS games to run smoothly, which means that communication, networking and printer support are still in early development.This is symbian s60 port of the DOSBox emulator for devices running s60 3rd edition feature pack 1 (or later)

DOSBox for S60 (20090623) changelog:
- bugfix: virtual keyboard clicking on touch-ui devices should now work as designed
