The Atari++ Emulator is a Unix based emulator of the Atari eight bit computers, namely the Atari 400 and 800, the Atari 600XL, 800XL and 130XE, and the Atari 5200 game console. The emulator is auto-configurable and will compile on a variety of systems (Linux, Solaris, Irix), and supports many emulation features. Atari++ includes OS++, an open source replacement Atari 8-bit operating system, so it's able to run many games and applications without the Atari ROM images. However, for maximum compatibility, you probably will want the original ROMs. To get them, install the atari800_roms package, then use the atari++ GUI to set the ROM file paths to the images in /usr/share/atari800/roms/. There is no need to install the atari800_os++ package for use with atari++ (OS++ is built into the emulator). Notes: 1. Atari++, by default, is built with a fancy set of CFLAGS that the author includes in his makefile. If you're picky about such things, or if you run into crashes or compile errors, try setting FORCE_SLACK_CFLAGS=yes in the environment before running atari++.SlackBuild 2. The Atari++ author doesn't keep old versions available on the site. This script was written for Atari++ version 1.57. By the time you read this, there may be a new release. If you are unable to find the 1.57 source, you can either download the latest version and run the script as 'VERSION=<whatever> ./atari++.SlackBuild', or else search for the 1.57 source somewhere other than the author's homepage.
