<STRONG>Frodo</STRONG> is an open and free C64 emulator for BeOS, Unix, |
17 |
|
|
MacOS, AmigaOS, Win32 and RiscOS systems and the world's first C64 emulator |
18 |
|
|
not bearing a "64" in its name. <TT>:-)</TT><P> |
19 |
|
|
|
20 |
|
|
Frodo comes in two <A HREF="flavours.html">flavours</A>: The regular |
21 |
|
|
<STRONG>Frodo</STRONG> with a line-based emulation, and the single-cycle |
22 |
|
|
emulation <STRONG>Frodo SC</STRONG> that is slower but far more |
23 |
|
|
compatible.<P> |
24 |
|
|
|
25 |
|
|
In addition to a precise 6510/VIC emulation, Frodo features a full, |
26 |
|
|
processor-level 1541 emulation that is able to handle most fast loaders. |
27 |
|
|
There is also an alternative, faster 1541 emulation of four drives in |
28 |
|
|
.d64/x64 disk images, .t64/LYNX archives, or directories of the host |
29 |
|
|
system.<P> |
