Hello folk,

Changes on the datetime device move and second file device are live for
uxngba [1] and uxn-linuxfb [2]. Note that uxngba doesn't yet support
file deletion or directory listing since the latest file changes were
introduced. If someone wants to try the file changes, feedback is
greatly appreciated.

>Fixed the screen.tal project to fit the GBA screen :)

I just tested the new version, and while the drawings should fit, it
seems the whitespace on the left/top still cut the image on the bottom
two rows. Seems like it's not centered also, so I wonder if more changes
are needed to the uxngba PPU.

I've updated the screen rom bundled in the uxn-gba repo, could you test
this and let me know what you think? You can use the following
incantation:

     make clean && make run ROM_SRC=roms/screen.rom

I like the idea of having a central repository for changes, sometimes
I get lost or just don't have time to go through the IRC logs. Already
subscribed to the mailing list :)
