Stella 1.4.2 Released!

The Atari2600 emulator Stella has been updated. Here are the changes in this version:

• Updated the sound system. All popping and cracking sounds that previously occurred at program start/stop and when entering/exiting menu or pause mode have been eliminated.
• Fixed the gl_fsmax argument to mean "switch to desktop resolution on fullscreen OpenGL", instead of to the maximum possible resolution (the two are not always the same).
• Added Alt [ and Alt ] keys to dynamically adjust the sound volume during emulation.
• Added Control 0, Control 1, Control 2, Control 3 keys to dynamically change which paddle the mouse should emulate.
• Added video_driver argument. This accepts the different options that can be specified for SDL_VIDEODRIVER (see SDL homepage for more information). Basically, it eliminates the need to set the SDL_VIDEODRIVER environment variable.
• Made sure screen is refreshed before taking a snapshot. This eliminates the problem with new snapshots containing the text "Snapshot saved".
• For the Windows port; added windib and directx as options for 'video_driver' when using software rendering. The 'windib' option is now the default, and in many cases it's up to 10 times faster than using 'directx'.
• For the OSX port; added 'Cmd-R' key to reload the currently loaded ROM.
