v15 on macOS - fail to compile
I tried to compile PCem v15 on macOS 10.14. Though ./configure reported "checking for off64_t x86_64... no", it did generate an Makefile. And I saw these... esdi_at.c:110:35: error: unknown type name 'off64_t'; did you mean 'off_t'? int esdi_get_sector(esdi_t *esdi, off64_t *addr) ^~~~~~~ ...

Re: [Req] bin/cue cdimage support
As of commit e0a406, PCem wx-SDL2 fork has supported cue/bin format... Maybe we just need a patch for the mainline PCem.

It seems impossible that a SDL display window and control window can be merged into one window.

Re: Best machine/graphic card/setting for Windows 95 emulati
It might be ATi Mach64. I tried some 2D RPG games on v10.1 before and Mach64 performs better than S3 Trio64. And S3 ViRGE was the poorest.
On v10.1, the blitter isn't in a dedicate thread but on v11 it is. So the 2D games should run faster.

Yep, the emulator no longer crashes on Intel HD Graphics. However it seems the performance under Direct3D output mode is even lower than that under DirectDraw output mode.

depcomp and missing in your source folder was linked to /usr/share/automake-1.11/depcomp and /usr/share/automake-1.11/missing. but automake-1.11 is an older version.
Go to /usr/share/automake-1.xx then copy depcomp and missing to your source folder.
