This service registers Atari 8-bit file types with the kernel's binfmt_misc
driver, to allow users to directly execute Atari software (disk images,
executables, BASIC programs, boot cassette images, and cartridge images)
as though they were native Linux executables.

To run Atari software, the atari800 emulator is required. Normally, atari800
requires X to be running (it may be possible to compile it for console use).
Get atari800 from: http://atari800.sourceforge.net

If you get a "Can't find atari800 emulator" error, either install atari800
in one of these directories: $EMUDIRS

...or set ATARI800_BIN in the environment to the full path of the emulator
binary: export ATARI800_BIN=/opt/atari800/bin/atari800

# notes:

# NO parameters allowed when calling the emulator, use a wrapper
# script if you need to always pass e.g. -windowed or -ntscemu, or
# just put on the command line when you run an Atari program.

# there's no "magic" for recognizing XFD images. Instead, they're
# recognized by filename extension... which is case-sensitive, hence
# the xfd/Xfd/XFD combination. Feel free to add xFD or xFd, etc, if
# you have a bunch of files named like that (better solution would be
# to rename them!)

# There's no way to determine whether a given disk or tape image
# requires BASIC. The wrapper scripts assume that a boot disk, XEX
# file, or boot tape, does not require BASIC... and that a BASIC
# program (obviously) does. Unfortunately there's no easy way to
# have the emulator run CLOAD, for a non-bootable BASIC tape, so
# CAS support can only work with boot tapes.

# Likewise, there's no way to tell whether a given tape or disk
# image is in fact bootable (well, not really true, the wrappers
# *could* examine boot records, etc, but they don't).

# If you have a XEX, ATR/XFD image, or boot CAS image that requires
# BASIC, you can enable it, by adding the -basic parameter to the
# command line (e.g. "myimage.atr -basic"). More generally, you
# can pass arbitrary atari800 options just by putting them on the
# image command line (see atari800 -help for full list).
