Re: Apple II emulator ready (well, kinda)

[Kevin Lund <kevin@cassandra.ucr.edu>]

To make a disk image, basically you need to feed the converter program
a hex dump of a disk, marked by three *'s; that is to say, the converter
reads the file till it sees the astrisks, then reads hex digits (skipping
anything else, like line feeds or whatever) till end of file.  Then writes
out what it found, sets file type&creator, and voila.

Now, I did include some fairly primitive software for the apple II side
to generate such a dump, but it kinda sucks, really.  If somebody does a
better one, I'd be happy to include it with the emulator...

I have no plans at present to go to something with an extended memory
architecture like the //e; it switches so many banks in and out of the
middle of ram, and does it so often, that it would slow things down too
much for my tastes.

However, my ultimate ambition with this thing is to add Apple ///
emulation.
All I lack is the moral equivalent of the 'Apple /// reference manual';
you
know, all the juicy hardware details.  Anybody know if such a thing
exists?
