clksignal (emulator for various classic computing platforms)
|
||
|
||
CLK, also known as Clock Signal, is an emulator for tourists that
|
||
seeks to be invisible. Users directly launch classic software with no
|
||
emulator or per-emulated-machine learning curve.
|
||
|
||
It currently emulates the Acorn Electron, Amstrad CPC, Apple
|
||
II/II+/IIe, Atari 2600, Atari ST, ColecoVision, Commodore VIC-20,
|
||
Enterprise 64/128, 512K Mac/Mac+, MSX-1, Oric/Atmos, Sega Master
|
||
System, Sinclair ZX81/81, and Sinclair ZX Spectrum.
|
||
|
||
Through the combination of static analysis and runtime analysis, CLK
|
||
seeks to be able automatically to select and configure the appropriate
|
||
machine to run any provided disk, tape or ROM; to issue any commands
|
||
necessary to run the software contained on the disk, tape or ROM;
|
||
and to provide accelerated loading where feasible. The full process
|
||
of loading a title - even if you've never used the emulated machine
|
||
before - is therefore: 1. locate it in your OS; 2. double click
|
||
it.
|
||
|
||
Notes:
|
||
|
||
- clksignal requires ROM images for most of the systems it emulates.
|
||
When an image is missing, it will tell you the name, size, and
|
||
CRC of the image, so you can go search for it on the web.
|
||
|
||
- For the "locate and click" to work, you'll have to associate the
|
||
file types/extensions with clksignal manually.
