- Pause (thanks a2geek)
- Passes the A2AUDIT 1.06 tests as II+, //e, and //e Enhanced.
- Partial pass ot the ProcessorTests for 6502 and 65c02. Failing test 6502/v1/20_55_13; flags N anv V issues with ADC; and missing some undocumented 6502 opcodes.
By default the following configuration is launched:
- Enhanced Apple //e with 65c02 processor
- RAMWorks card with 80 column, RGB (with Video7 modes) and 8Gb RAM in aux slot
- Parallel print inteface in slot 1
- VidHD card (SHR support) in slot 2
- FASTChip Accelerator card in slot 3
- Mouse card in slot 4
- SmartPort card with 1 device in slot 5 (if an image is provided with -disk35)
- DiskII controller card in slot 6
- SmartPort card with 1 device in slot 7 (if an image is provided with -hd)
No installation required. Download the single file executable izapple2xxx_xxx for linux or Mac, SDL2 graphics or console. Build from source to get the latest features.
Execute without parameters to have an emulated Apple //e Enhanced with 128kb booting DOS 3.3 ready to run Applesoft:
casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl
Download a DSK or WOZ file or use an URL (Asimov is an excellent source):
casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl "https://www.apple.asimov.net/images/games/action/karateka/karateka (includes intro).dsk"
Download the excellent Total Replay compilation by a2-4am:
casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl Total\ Replay\ v4.0.hdv
Displays super hi-res box art as seen with the VidHD card.
To run text mode right on the terminal without the SDL2 dependency, use izapple2console. It runs on the console using ANSI escape codes. Input is sent to the emulated Apple II one line at a time:
casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2console -model 2plus

Besides having a working Go installation, install the SDL2 developer files. Run:
git clone github.com/ivanizag/izapple2
cd izapple2/frontend/a2sdl
go build .
With a working Go installation, run:
brew install SDL2
git clone github.com/ivanizag/izapple2
cd izapple2/frontend/a2sdl
go build .
On Windows, CGO needs a gcc compiler. Install mingw-w64 and the SDL2 developer files for mingw-64.
Run:
git clone github.com/ivanizag/izapple2
cd izapple2\frontend\a2sdl
go build .
To run in Windows, copy the file SDL2.dll on the same folder as a2sdl.exe. The latest SDL2.dll can be found in the Runtime binary for Windows 64-bit.
To create executables for Linux and Windows without installing Go, SDL2 or the Windows cross compilation toosl, run:
cd docker
./build.sh
