              C64S - Commodore 64 Software Emulator DEMO
                      (C) Miha Peternel 1991-1993

This is the only *REAL* C64 emulator for the PCs. It supports 6510 CPU
instructions, memory management, graphics, sound, timer and raster
interrupts, C64 keyboard is emulated, cursor keys replace joysticks.
You need a fast PC (386-40 or 486-33) with a VGA and SB to feel it real.

WARNING !
The DEMO still has some bugs and maybe it won't run on your computer.
E-mail me if this happens. E-mail (USA): miha@cnd.hp.com

READ.ME      - basic information


Keyboard layout is original C64, a few keys beeing replaced due to
the different PC layout.

Tab     = Run/Stop
F1..F4  = F1/F2..F7/F8
F12     = Restore
Alt     = Commodore

F9         tape/file selection menu
Shift+Tab  loads a file (Shift+Run/Stop)
F10        enables joystick emulation (cursor keys + space)
F8         option screen
ESC        back to dos


Sound enable option:
Sound Blaster: C64S -sb
PC Speaker:    C64S -sp

The sound speed will usually not be correct. You must play with
the options (press F8) and set the speed of raster and screen
refresh rate according to your computer speed. It's the best
to set screen refresh rate as high as possible and then fine-tune
the speed changing the raster speed (I hope you PC is fast enough).


Comments are greatly appreciated. If you need any further info,
feel free to contact me. The 1.0 will be released in November '93
as SHAREWARE.
