It lets you choose which one you want to run by simply clicking on a gadget. I wrote this because I though it would be useful and because I wanted to learn how to use some various C programming functions. Make sure you set the @{"prefs" link prefs} before you try it. This program is freeware. If you are a sharware author and you feel the urge to give me something for my little program send me a keyfile for your program as payment :-). @endnode @node requirements "Requirements" This program needs the following to operate. - OS 2.0 or better - some emulators - 30K of ram @endnode @node installation "Installation" To install just put it anywhere you want and then set the @{"prefs" link prefs}. @endnode @node stuff "Programs & things by me" Here is a list of goodies I have released on the net and where to get them. note- There is a html document included that you can load into your web browser to download my files directly.(try it!) @endnode @node prefs "Setting the prefs" The preferences are set by changing the Tooltypes of the icon by selecting it and then picking information off of the icon menu. -List of Tooltypes- GAMEBOY= NINTENDO= MASTERSYSTEM= MSXCOMPUTER= MACINTOSH= APPLEII= just change them to the paths where you keep the corresponding emulator on your hardrive. Example GAMEBOY=dh0:emulators/gameboy/wzonkalad @endnode @node usage "Usage" Just double click its icon after setting up the @{"prefs" link prefs} then click on the appropriate gadget for the emulator you wish to use. note -at this time you can only start one emulator at a time. You have to turn the emulator you are using off to start another. @endnode @node bugs "Bugs" The current bugs in the program are as follows. -needs to have the apple rom file in the EmulatorLauncher Directory (this is for apple 2000 emulator to work). -dosen't have a graphic interface for setting prefs. -at this time you can only start one emulator at a time. You have to turn the emulator you are using off to start another. Send bug reports suggestions to @{"Author." link author} @endnode @node future "Future" Things I may add in the future. - Graphic interface for setting up prefs. - Support for more emulators - Options to start certain emulators with games preloaded and so forth. - Magic Wb style colors for user interface. Who knows. @endnode @node author "Author" Hi my name is Kelly Samel and this is my first program written in C language. I have been using the amiga for almost 3 years now and will be continuing to use it for many years to come. I like to do Raytracing in Imagine programming in AmosPro and now C as well as play games and various other things like painting going on the net ect. Feel free to e-mail me and tell me if you liked this little program. Its my first one in C so don't expect to much (but I think its allright). Or if you have any docs or knowledge that would help a new guy get better at programming in C, mail me as well. my email is- samel@telusplanet.net my WebPage featuring- Emulators fantasy art my programs and animations and various other stuff is at www.telusplanet.net/public/samel/index.html @endnode
