Is anyone interested in running old 8bit atari software on their ST. This weekend, I uploaded a new version of Daryl Mihocka (sp???)'s 6502 emulator. It is really nice, He has added a gem interface, and sped it up by over 100%, by talking to David Small, and the person who wrote PC-Ditto, sorry I can't remember his name right now. It requires 1 meg of memory, and it is pretty tight, I had to disable my copy of Turbodos. It now supports I believe player missle graphics. This emulator has the support of Atari, they even let him use the rom code in the program. He is trying to get the same commitment from apple, and comodore, so it can work with their machines. If anyone is interested, Ill upload it to the E-Net. Bill Powers

Yes I'm interested! It's to bad it takes a full megabyte to run. Ray | |||||

Me too, I guess... though my old trusty 800 is currently collecting dust down my cellar. Can anyone suggest a neat, simple way to move software between the 800 and the 520st which sits beside it? Or for that matter, between my two 520st's? I bought cables, null modem etc. once, but never could get it to happen. | |||||

> Or for > that matter, between my two 520st's? Write the file to the first systems floppy disk drive, move the floppy disk to the second system, read the file. :-) > I bought cables, null modem etc. > once, but never could get it to happen. Use Uniterm. Run it on both systems, set for KERMIT transfers, make sure the baud rates agree, tell first system to send, tell second system to receive, play space invaders on the '800 while waiting. Look into the PD MIDI-network things that are around. I have played with two midi-ring network things, and once read data from the other system's disk, but the entire network hung shortly thereafter. With more paitence, you may do better. | |||||

There is now a 520 version of the emulator II on GENIE. It works only in color and has no GEM interface. I have not downloaded it yet. |
