Re: [hatari-devel] Hatari 1.6 for Mac OS X

Hello Cyprian

I would like to clarify: Previous is not MY emulator. I'm just contributing some parts of it. In fact the only part i could finish so far is keyboard input, although it needs some improvements later. At the moment i am working on SCSI (emulating NCR53C90), which also requires DMA emulation.

The emulator is in very early state, but of course DSP emulation is among the targets of the emulator. I did not look into details of DSP yet (that might exceed my programming skills), so i can't answer your question. But if you want to find out more you could take a look as the file archives of the NeXT forums: "http://www.nextcomputers.org/NeXTfiles"; or search the forums for informations.

It's good to hear Previous gets some attention outside NeXT forums.

best regards

Andreas

> This build is untested for the most part, but it starts and runs the tos.img that is included with the source code. System requirements for this build are Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later (including 10.7.x), it is a universal binary with 3 architectures (PPC and x86 (32-bit and 64-bit)).
> Feel free to release this version, but i think it might be good if someone who has experiences with Hatari could first test it.
> Warning: There is an SDL/Mac OS X related bug, that causes SDL based applications to crash on Mac OS X v10.7.x (may even crash the system!). Hatari is also affected by this bug. Avoid going to full screen mode, if you are on Mac OS X v10.7.
