I'm pleased to finally announce the first public release of KEGS v0.30. KEGS is an Apple //gs emulator for HP series 9000/700 workstations (since that's what I have). It is fast, and very accurate. Compatibility with a real Apple //gs is excellent. Let me know if you find ANYTHING which does not work. Even the ROM built-in selftests pass! As a teaser, KEGS can do some border effects, and a fully functional FTA XMAS.DEMO is available to download as a demonstration. KEGS is available at http://www.mtnweb.com/~kentd/ The needed ROM files and GSOS are not available at that site. You need to have an HP workstation to use KEGS. I have tested it on HP-UX 9.05 and 10.20. Full source code is included. Code and ideas from KEGS have already been used in other emulators, but after this release I expect many more ideas and code will be borrowed. :-) One more time: KEGS will not work on PCs or Macs. It will not even work on other Unixes since the 65816 interpreter is written in PA-RISC assembly code. If you download it and try it, please let me know. I figure the audience for this has got to be small... Kent Dickey kentd@mtnweb.com (my ISP) kentd@cup.hp.com (my day job) http://www.mtnweb.com/~kentd/ HP has nothing to do with this software
