[PATCH] misc/registry.c

[Dustin Navea]

ok, here is the needed patch to get Blizzard's
installers to not complain _ever_ about not being able
to find program start menu...  this also adds in a reg
key for HARDWARE\\DEVICEMAP\\SerialComm
"Serial0"=""COM1"

I think that the code to write to HKLM may be slightly
broken though, as I couldn't get any of the hklm
entries in misc/registry.c to be written, except for
the ComputerName one...  I dunno, someone wanna have a
look at it?  I'm creating a bug for it soon as i send
this out...

ChangeLog: adds in keys for installers, to fix blizzard's weird installers
           complaining about not being able to find the start menu...
           adds in a key to display the first serial port on com1 (some apps use it)
License: ALL
Permissions: may be used only to teach yourself c.
Notes: I think that RegCreateKeyA(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, blah blah blah) may be broken
       it never once wrote the keys in this registry.c except the ComputerName one
       May also be the case for HKEY_DYN_DATA
       Backtrace (trace+reg) shows that it is writing the keys, but they dont ever
       appear in the registry files....... :/  I'm gonna submit it as a bug...
