General Notes ============= This emulator does a great job of emulating an Apple IIGS. Various IIGS hardware devices are also emulated but this version is still an alpha quality release so you might find a few things missing. XGS requires a copy of the IIGS ROM to boot up and this port should attempt to FTP a copy of it from the Asimov archives (if it is still available). If you have to obtain a copy of it manually then all you should need to do is drop it in the xgs subdirectory of the distfiles directory to allow the port to build. This ROM cannot be distributed due to copyright reasons. Version Specific Notes ====================== Disk emulation has improved considerably. Many images available on the net will now load. A new disk image format has been adopted and further support for other image types have been added. Also most of the utilities have been consolidated into one program. Be sure to check the docs on this one. Sound emulation is currently broken and I'm looking for help in this area as I lack experience with sound programming. If you are able to assist, or even better, have some patches you can send me please contact me on the email address below. Finally ======= Please check out the files in /usr/local/share/doc/xgs (or equivalent on your system). As this package has no man pages you will need to pick up the basics from there. All author credits can be found in these files also.
