You don't. Others do.

This doesn't make use support binaries provided by others. This is open source, anyone can provide binaries on his own (given that he compiles with the license). However, as we have no control about such binaries why should we even want to support those? Most open source projects only provide source code, and don't support binaries at all.

Except where it doesn't - such as here.

I'm not sure if you're still discussing this stupid Alt-F4 thing but if you do please point me to where the manual tells that Alt-F4 quits the simulator. Besides, the simulator is basically a development tool and not an application we provide.

I don't see anyone suggesting you'd want to support binaries. Or for that matter you'd want to support the simulator at all. But since Rockbox Flyspray has a category for Simulator, I presume it is because the project wants to hear about simulator bugs that are found. If not, please do tell me what you think it is for.

Nowhere I can see. However, given that the manual is unofficial, what do you care?

If there is a developer tool does it make sense to track issues with that tool even if it's not an end user tool or not?

The Rockbox manual is the official manual, and officially maintained and supported. Who said that the manual is unofficial?

In my experience issues in any currently-used tool are worth tracking.

The Simulator manual (such as exists) is in the Wiki, and it has been said here that the wiki is unofficial.

There is only one manual - the manual. Anything in the wiki isn't it.
