I have decided to leave again a new version of iDeaS.

The new version contains little improvements like the touchscreen (now DSLINUX keyboard works) and the management of the plugins. Added the plugins for the recording the avi.

0.4.8:

* PCE:  Loading a physical CD will now print out a list of available devices.

* NES:  Blip_Buffer's highpass filtering capabilities(for DC-offset removal) are now used instead of a custom function.

* Modified the included libintl so that it will compile on Mac OS/X.

* The "trio" subdirectory should(I can't test it) now be compiled with -mieee on Alpha architectures,

* fixing a compilation error.

* NES:  Fixed long-standing graphical problems with some sprites in (Mike Tyson's) Punch-Out.

* Removed "#include " from cdromif.cpp and cdromfile.cpp, since I forgot to in 0.4.6.
