It's been about a month since I last looked at Stella, so last night I started off by reviewing the changes I'd made so far.

I then started to work on implementing the 5 buttons to the right of the Cartridge RAM Grid. Undo, Revert and Reset buttons appear to be working. Search and Compare are enabled when appropriate, but they don't yet function correctly.

Starting with:

Manually changed 4 Cartridge RAM locations

After Undo:

After Revert:

Search brings up the box:

but finds the wrong things. It should locate the RAM I denoted with purple boxes, but instead found the two RAM locations in the red box:

Compare doesn't do anything, though Reset works to clear out the Search results:

I have a number of RL events going on over the next few days, so progress will probably be slow. I plan to finish implementing the Search and Compare buttons, then add the Cartridge RAM tab to more of the cartridge types - it currently shows up for DPC+ and F8SC ^* cartridges. After that I'll submit the changes to stephena then resume work on Frantic and Draconian.
