</ul>
<p>Here’s what they do.</p>
<p>Normally, the emulated Jaguar’s display shows pixels that are razor sharp and is what you would likely see if the Jaguar was hooked up to a high quality monitor. Selecting this item will cause the emulated Jaguar’s display to be averaged, resulting in a screen that looks slightly blurry—more like what you would expect to see if the Jaguar was hooked up to a television. This is an aesthetic option that some people prefer; you may or may not like it.</p>
+<h3>Full Screen</h3>
+
+<p>Selecting this toolbar button will switch the display into full screen mode; selecting it again will switch it back to windowed mode. This option can also be activated by pressing the <b>F9</b> key on your keyboard. Note that on monitors with a wide aspect ratio that <i>Virtual Jaguar</i> will still display its virtual screen in a 4:3 aspect ratio—this is normal and expected.</p>

<li>Show all files in file chooser</li>
+<li>Use fast blitter</li>
</ul>
<p>Here’s what they do.</p>
<p>Normally the “Insert Cartridge...” dialog will ignore any files it encounters that it doesn’t know how to deal with. You can override this behavior by checking this option. However, this will <b>not</b> cause <i>Virtual Jaguar</i> to be able to load such files.</p>
+<h3>Use fast blitter</h3>
+
+<p>Checking this option will force <i>Virtual Jaguar</i> to use the older, less compatible yet faster blitter. Some games will <b>not</b> work properly with this option checked!</p>
+
<h2>Controller Tab</h2>
<p>Under the Controller tab, there are the following options:</p>
<ul>
+<li>A combobox labeled “Host Device”</li>
+<li>A combobox labeled “Map Name”</li>
+<li>Two buttons labelled “+” and “-”</li>
+<li>A combobox labeled “Maps to”</li>
<li>A picture of a Jaguar controller showing which inputs are defined</li>
<li>A button labeled “Define All Inputs”</li>
</ul>
+<p><i>Virtual Jaguar</i> utilizes a profile system for controllers. What this means is that you can set up any device that <i>Virtual Jaguar</i> recognizes with any number of different configurations for it. Here’s how it works:</p>
+
+<p>The “Host Device” combobox lets you select whichever gamepad device you have connected to your computer. This, plus the unique “Map Name” will show the keymapping set up for that particular host device/key map combination.</p>
+
+<p>The “Map Name” combobox lets you set up multiple key maps for your detected device. To add a new key map to the current device, press the “+” button next to the combobox. It will then ask your for a human readable name for the new map. If you want to remove any maps that you don't want anymore, you can delete the currently selected map by pressing the “-” button; it will ask for confirmation. Keep in mind that this action cannot be undone!</p>
+
+<p>The “Maps to” combobox tells <i>Virtual Jaguar</i> which virtual controller slot you would like your device to be plugged into. Selecting <i>None</i> disables that key mapping for that device. Selecting <i>Controller #1</i> will map the device to virtual controller slot #1. Selecting <i>Controller #2</i> will map the device to virtual controller slot #2. Selecting <i>Either one that’s free</i> will attempt to connect the device to a free virtual controller slot if one is still available after all other connected devices have had a chance to plug into a definite slot. If other devices have filled up the virtual slots, this option will cause the device to <b>not</b> attempt to connect itself.</p>
+
<p>Hovering over a letter on the picture of the Jaguar controller will highlight it; clicking on the letter will let you redefine that input by pressing a key on the keyboard or button on a connected gamepad. If you prefer, you can define all inputs at once by clicking on the “Define All Inputs” button. It will then step through each input on the controller, one at a time, and wait for you to press the key/button that you wish to set it to. You can exit the key redefinition process at any time by pressing the <b>Esc</b> key on your keyboard.</p>
<p>NOTE: For gamepads to be detected, they must be connected to the computer before starting <i>Virtual Jaguar</i>.</p>
