The ApplesoftMod embeds a fully-functional Apple //e emulator at a usable object in Minecraft. The screen is rendered on a map, so only use this if maps aren't terribly important to you. The actual emulation is based on Java Apple Computer Emulator (Jace) and is allowed to run for 10 seconds before aborting. This is long enough to draw pictures and print simple statements. Letting it run for much longer would cause a higher workload on the server, and this is not desirable on a busy server!
-----------------
Also for anyone who is interested I also embedded a z-machine interpreter using ApplesoftMod as a starting point and now you can play Zork within Minecraft as well as any other Infocom or Inform 7 creation!

Both of these mods are running on canadianviper's server @ apple2forever.ca
Enjoy!
