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.
|
|
|
|
Check out the following for all sorts of Apple II goodies:
