1 - Introduction
As a general note, I'd like to explain that all references to
resources available on the network are given in the form of a URL.
See appendix A for an explanation if you have problems.
Additionally, the pointers to resources at FTP sites are almost
never the sole place to obtain information. If you have trouble
finding a file at a particular site, use archie to locate it at a
different place on the net. See appendix E for more information.
The most recent version of this FAQ can be obtained from:
ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/emulators-faq
A hypertext version of the FAQ is available at:
http://www.why.net/home/adam/cem/
If you don't have FTP or WWW access, you can request the most
recent version of this FAQ by sending mail to
<mail-...@rtfm.mit.edu> with the text "send
pub/usenet/news.answers/emulators-faq/*" in the body of the
message.
1.1 Purpose
Most of the questions posed on comp.emulators.misc seem to be of
the form, "is there a XXX emulator for XXX? Where can I find
it?" This FAQ cannot pretend to answer every possible
permutation of this question, but, hopefully, it will be
possible to knock out the most common ones.
There is also quite a bit of information which could be useful
to developers (pointers to specifiations, etc) contained in this
FAQ.
1.2 What is not included
This document excludes topics that are not covered by the
comp.emulators.misc charter (see appendix F), such as sound card
emulation (use comp.sys.ibm.pc.soundcard.misc), math
co-processor emulation (use comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.misc), and
the X windowing system (use comp.windows.x). For the record,
there is no such thing as an X "emulator;" X is a standard. You
IMPLEMENT it on a platform, not EMULATE it.
Furthermore, this document specifically excludes those machines
for which an emulation FAQ has already been written. You may
wish to check the FAQ archives listed in appendix H.
Specific FAQs which should be referenced instead of this
document follow.
1.2.1 Apple II Emulators

There is also a web page which has a collection of Apple II
emulator resources. Maintained by Jonathan Badger

One final note; there appear to be a bunch of Apple II
applications available from:

1.2.2 Atari 8-Bit Emulators (400/800/XL/XE)
This FAQ is posted on the 1st of each month to
comp.emulators.misc. Maintained by Bill Kendrick

new_and_emu.txt
Note that, since the 8-bit FAQ mentions the ST line only in
passing, I will be including entries for ST emulators in this
document.
1.2.3 Commodore 8-Bit Emulators (64/128/Pet/Vic-20)

1.3 General Resources
1.3.1 Tenabis Emulator Classes
Sebastien Brochet <tena...@mail.micronet.fr> has put together
some interesting C++ classes that may prove interesting and
useful to potential emulator developers. He also has a small
virtual machine ("Tiny Emulator") and an assembler for that
machine ("TinyAsm") available from the same page. Sebastien is
using these classes to implement an Atari ST emulator.

2.2 6800
2.2.1 68em [MS-DOS]
6800 emulator for DOS; includes a realtime O/S.
I have very little information about this program, other than
a report that the ROL direct instruction does not rotate the
carry flag into the low bit of the operand properly (although
ROLA does). If anyone can find a version of 68em dated after
1991-Jun-15, a pointer to that may be helpful.

2.5.4 EMU68 [Unix, MS-DOS]
M68000 emulator for MS-DOS and UNIX. This emulator was
developed as part of a MS thesis. It is written entirely in
C++, and the source code is available. On a '486-33, it runs
about 1/50th as fast as an MVME101 (an embedded procssor
board). Two separate sets of source are available -- one for
MS-DOS (which is known to work with the Borland C++
compilers), and one for Unix.
The emulator does not support the following opcodes: ABCD,
CHK, MOVEP, NBCD, SBCD, and TAS.
The developer has offered to supply development documents to
anyone who needs to modify the source code.

2.7 80x86
2.7.1 Bochs [Unix & X]
This is an 80x86 emulator which runs on most Unix platforms
under X. It emulates the CPU, BIOS and I/O environment of an
IBM AT compatible PC.
Currently, the program is in Alpha, but it has an impressive
list of accomplishments. It can handle 386 opcodes, and runs
DOS 5.0 & 6.22 and Windows 3.1 (in standard mode). Hardware
support includes Hercules graphics, PIC, timers,
1.44M/1.2M/760K floppies, and AT keyboard. Plans are to
emulate VGA graphics.
Currently, Bochs does not support networking, numerics
coprocessor, or mouse emulation. Tasking & paging are missing
in the CPU support, but paging is currently being implemented.
For embedded systems developers, PC BIOS developers, O/S
developers, CPU vendors, etc, Bochs supports the use of an
external BIOS, and provides a compile time option for linking
with an external CPU simulation environment.

did work on the 680x0 machines). Produced by Insigna
Solutions.
It is probable that Insigina has included the same emulation
that they use for SoftPC in their SoftWindows product. See
section 3.6.6 for details on SoftWindows.
The Atari ST/Falcon version was never officially released, but
an alpha version was (illegally) included on a German

original XT on the Falcon, and about twice as fast as that on
a TT.

3.6.8 Wabi [Solaris, Linux]
Runs MS-Windows 3.1 executables under Solaris. Supports OLE.
Produced by Sun. Wabi is a Trademark of Sun Microsystems. Wabi
cannot run MS-DOS applications; however, SunPC (Sparc) and
Merge (80x86) will run under Wabi. See section 6.4.11 for
information on SunPC and section 3.5.8 for information on
Merge.
Wabi operates by translating MS-Windows API calls into
corresponding X calls, providing faster translation than full
emulation would.
Sun is planning support for 32-bit (Win32s, Windows 95,
Windows NT) applications in future releases, but they have not
announced an expected date for such support.
Sun has also announced plans for a version of Wabi that allows
the installation of Windows with the Japanese character set.
Support is planned for French, Italian, German, Spanish and
Swedish versions.
Caldera (producers of Caldera Desktop, a commercial
distribution of Linux) has released Wabi for Linux. For more
information, see the Caldera homepage. Suggested retail price
is US$199.

of the Macintosh ROMs, so you don't have to worry about
hunting down ROM images to use it. Limited (incomplete) System
7 support is available in versions 1.99p and later.
Furthermore, in versions 1.99p9 and later, limited sound
support is available for the MS-DOS and Linux versions. The
Linux versions run under X, although an experimental SVGALib
version is available. There are a.out and elf versions of the
Linux binaries.
Executor runs at an unbeleivably fast speed, thanks to dynamic
recompilation of 680x0 machine code into native 80x86 machine
code for certain segments of code. More information on this
technique is available on the FTP sites listed below; retreive
"SynPaper" or "SynPaper.tex."
The demonstration program listed below has full functionality,
but stops running after 10 minutes.
An Executor mailing list exists; for information, read the

3.7.3 Liken [Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, Digital Unix]
Emulation of Mac System 6 on a 680x0. It does no mapping of
graphics calls, and requires the user to source his own copy
of system 6.0.7.
Produced by Andataco. I search of their website seems to
indicate that they no longer produce or support Liken.

3.7.4 MAE/MAS [Solaris 2.3, HP-UX 9.01, PowerOpen Unix]
MAE (Macintosh Application Environment) is produced by Apple;
it runs Mac OS executables on Sparcs with Solaris 2.3 or later
and HP 9000 Series 700 machines with HP-UX 9.01 or later.
MAS (Macintosh Application Services) is also produced by
Apple; it seems to be very similar to MAE, but runs on RS/6000
machines under PowerOpen Unix.
This program uses a dynamic recompiler to speed up emulation.

3.8 Magic
Magic is a multitasking operating system. It is designed to be
compatible with Atari's TOS. IT IS NOT AN EMULATOR.
3.8.1 MagiC-Mac [Macintosh]
Magic for the Mac. This is a commercial product produced by
Application Systems Heidelberg. Since it is written in native
680x0 code, it typically runs faster than an ST with TOS. A
PowerPC version is rumored to have just recently been
released; its performance is described as being 10% faster
than a TT.

3.9 SunOS
3.9.1 FreePort Express [DEC Alpha]
FreePort Express does translation of binaries from SunOS 4.1.x
to DEC UNIX 3.0 or later. It is a free program.
Freeport requires the binaries to be converted to be
non-privledged, user mode a.out files. It will not work with
file or filesystem formats which are not present (or are
different) under Digital UNIX, code which uses SunView, or
driver code.
After conversion, the same code runs about the same speed (or
faster) on an AlphaStation 400 4/233 as it does on a SPARC
20/71.

4 - Machine Emulation
In many cases, especially the eariler home computers, the
operating system was so closely tied to the hardware that it is
virtually impossible to emulate one without emulating the other.
This section contains entries for these types of emulators.
4.1 ABC80
The ABC80 is an early-'80's Swedish home computer based on the
Z80; it was more or less on par with the other 8-bit home
computers of its time. The ABC80 has 16k RAM and 16k ROM. It was
manufactured by Luxor (who generally are in the business of
consumer electronics, like television sets, etc.).
Judging from the responses I get when making queries, it was a
fantastically popular computer (like the BBC was in Brittian).

Swedish to use it.

4.2 Acorn Atom
4.2.1 Acorn Atom Emulator [Unix & X]
This emulator is available under the Gnu Public License. See
the homepage for the current status of this emulator. Under
development by Frans F.J. Faase <fa...@cs.utwente.nl>.
Homepage:
http://wwwis.cs.utwente.nl:8080/~faase/Ha/Atom/
4.3 Altair
The Altair was one of the first kit computers that could be
ordered out of electronics enthusiast's journals; it was first
released in 1975. It was a small, rectangular box with a couple
dozen switches on it. You would use these to toggle in your
program and execute it. The output was 20 LEDs which indicated
various flags and one 8-bit value.
4.3.1 Altair 8800 Emulator [MS-Windows]
Altair 8800 emulator for MS-Windows. Has nifty graphics of the
original machine. Also performs IMSAI emulation. Written by

4.4 Amiga
For a long time, there has been an ongoing argument about
whether an Amiga emulator would be possible; in a decisive blow
to those claiming it is impossible, a usable (and even zippy,
under certain circumstances) emulator has been developed and
released; see below for details. Still, from the days when such
an emulator was beleived impossible, there are a few odd hoaxes
and rumors.
Due to the nature of the Amiga floppy drive hardware, it is
impossible to read Amiga floppies in an IBM-PC floppy drive
without heavily modifying the hardware; the Amiga can read and
write in IBM format, though. In fact, as far as common knowledge
extends, it is absolutely impossible to read Amiga disks in
anything but a genuine Amiga.
Another chapter in the long Amiga saga: VIScorp has purchased
Amiga Technologies, GmbH from Escom. For those keeping track,
this makes the fourth holding company for the Amiga. More
information is available from both websites:
http://www.amiga.de/
http://www.vistv.com/
This has very few ramifications for the emulator; the largest
one is that VIScorp has made it extraordinarily clear that they
intend to pursue blatant copyright violations, such as kickstart
ROM distribution. In an official memo on their website, they
state:
"...[W]e have recently become aware that versions of the Amiga
System ROMs are being reproduced and distributed without proper
licensing. This is a violation of international copyright law,
and VIScorp will prosecute offenders to the full extent of the
law."
4.4.1 amiga.zip (Hoax)
A program which purports to be an Amiga emulator for MS-DOS
machines has existed for a while. All it does is display the
Kickstart 1.2 startup image and hang your machine. (It wasn't
designed to do anything else. It's someone's sick idea of a
joke.) Note that this program has turned up in a number of
shareware CD collections that are otherwise reputable -- it's
still the same fake.
4.4.2 UAE [Unix & X, Macintosh, MS-DOS, NeXTstep, BeBox, AmigaOS]
UAE (Un*x Amiga Emulator) is a developing emualtor of the
Amiga 500/2000.
To use UAE, you need Unix and X (or Linux SVGAlib), a C
compiler, and a Kickstart ROM image (1.3, 2.0, and 3.0 all
work). The current version includes emulation of HAM graphics;
sprites; the Blitter and Copper chips; timers; disk drive
support; interlaced graphics mode emulation; parallel port
emulation (requires the WB3.0 PostScript driver); support for
French, Italian, and Swedish keyboards; and joystick support
(Linux only). Caveats include: Sprite collisions are not yet
implemented; the blitter chip isn't emulated at full speed;
some sound problems persist.
As of version 0.6.4, UAE is moving towards a recompiling
processor, which should improve performance greatly.
A Mac version is available; it includes binaries for the 680x0
Macs and PowerPC Macs. This port was done by Ernesto Corvi
<macsu...@overnet.com.ar>. Any Mac specific questions should
be directed to him.
A MS-DOS version has been produced; the port is by Gustavo
Goedert <GGOE...@MUSIC.PUCRS.BR>. Any questions about the
MS-DOS port should be addressed to him.
A BeBox port has been done by Christian Bauer
<baue...@goofy.zdv.uni-mainz.de>.
The NeXTStep port is maintained by Ian Stephenson
<ia...@cam-ani.co.uk>.
Believe it or not, UAE has been ported to the Amiga. Olaf
'Olsen' Barthel <ol...@sourcery.han.de> maintains that port.
A Linux (elf) binary is available from the homepage.

4.5.9 STonX [Unix & X, MS-DOS, MS-Windows]
This is an Atari ST emulator that runs under Unix with X. It
requires an image of TOS to run (look for a program called
"dumptos.ttp" which should be on all sites with STonX).
Version 0.6 has been released. It is available from the
homepage below in source and Linux binary forms. New features
include serial and parallel port support, a Unix filesystem
interface, and sound support on many systems. Version 0.6 is
60% to 80% faster than 0.5.X on most systems. STonX will also
now boot TOS 1.0 - 2.06 (although 1.4 or higher is needed to
use the Unix filesystem interface). Developed by Marinos
Yannikos <ni...@mips.complang.tuwien.ac.at>.
There have been reports that a Windows/DOS version is under
development.

4.5.10 TOS2WIN [Windows 95, NT]
An ST emulator that runs under Windows 95 and Windows NT. This
emulator maps TOS destop calls into native Windows calls to
help speed. It allows direct filesystem access to floppies,
CD-ROMs, and hard drives. Requires an 80486-66 or faster; a
Pentium-100 provides emulation speed on par with a TT-030.

4.6 BBC
The BBC appears to be a tremendously popular computer in Europe.
Unfortunately, most Americans have no idea what one is --
despite the fact that a US version (with modifications for FCC
approval) was produced and sold. So, in addition to the normal
entries for emulators, I've included a not-so-brief description
of what these little machines are. Also, there exists a mailing
list for BBC emulators, but I get the distinct impression that
it is primarily for developers. For information, send mail to
<bbc-emu...@bristol.ac.uk>
Also, there are a few BBC Home Pages:
http://homepage.cistron.nl/~wouters/bbc/bbc-etc.html
Software is available from:
http://homepage.cistron.nl/~wouters/
A utility to read BBC tapes via a soundcard (written by Robert
Schmidt <rob...@idt.unit.no>) is available from:
ftp://amnesix.idt.unit.no/incoming/btape09b.zip
There seem to be an inordinate number of posts requesting BBC
ROMs on the group. To reiterate: it is illegal in almost all
countries to use ROM images which you do not own. However, it's
not completely clear whether you may use images of ROMs you own
but obtain from a second source (U.S. Residents, see appendix
G).
There is a mailing list for BBC emulators; to subscribe, send
email to <majo...@netcom.net.uk> with a body of "subscribe
beeb-emulators".
Another list is available by sending mail with a SUBJECT of
"subscribe" to the address
<beeb-emulat...@netcom.net.uk>.
From Paul Boddie <Paul....@cern.ch>:
"Apparently, according to folklore :-) the BBC were working with
the people who made the NewBrain computer, to design the BBC
microcomputer. However, they were persuaded to throw the
competition open to at least Acorn. There are various tales of
how Acorn, with the design of the Proton, but with no idea of
whether it would work, built the first BBC within three days or
so. It worked well enough to persuade the BBC (corporation that
is!) to adopt it as the BBC computer.
"The closest predecessor was the Atom, and various other
machines were made as 'spin-offs' including the Electron, BBC
B+, Master series, Acorn Business Computer (never released as
such), and Acorn Cambridge Workstation. (Forgive me if I have
missed one out!)
"Its key features were: 32K RAM (model B - the model A had 16K
expandible to 32K model B status), BBC BASIC 2 (early models
had BBC BASIC 1), 6502 series processor, analogue joystick
port, parallel printer port, Econet (optional?), Tube (a second
processor interface), disc interface, graphics modes (640 * 256
* 2 colours, 320 * 256 * 4, 160 * 256 * 16 etc.), plug in
language and 'service' (such as filing system) ROM's, and more
features I could go on listing...!
"The BASIC was later upgraded to version 4 (Master) and versions
5 and 6 (Archimedes - see comp.sys.acorn.* groups for fans of
these machines) - version 6 has IEEE floating point support.
"The Z88 and the PC, Amiga versions of BBC BASIC seem to be
based on version 2, but only have restricted OS command access,
and may or may not have assembler access. For emulating
purposes, although BBC BASIC(86) tries to support various
graphics modes, the BASIC variants cannot do enough to support
a 'proper BBC' environment."

4.6.2 !65Host [Acorn Archimedes]
!65Host is a BBC B emulator for the Archimedes; it was
supplied with RISC OS up to version 3.5. It is a reasonably
complete emulation and supports all but the most dodgy ways of
accessing the hardware. Images of BBC ROMs (for example
Wordwise, View etc) can be loaded and used. Later versions
support sound emulation (no mean feat) and allow around 70-80%
of BBC games to be played.
This emulator was developed and distributed by Acorn as an
extension to RiscOS; it may not work with versions 3.5 and
3.6, though.

4.6.3 BBC [MS-DOS]
A BBC emulator for MS-DOS machines. Still has a few problems,
but pretty good progress has been made. Screen shots are
available from the homepage. Requires SVGA and an 80386,
although an 80486/100 or faster is suggested.
You will have to get a copy of the BASIC and OS ROMs to run
this emulator.
Improvements in version 0.3 include VESA graphics support,
limited sound emulation, teletext graphics, and a few
bugfixes.

4.6.14 THE EMULATOR [Amiga]
This emulator runs software compatible with BBC BASIC 2 and
DFS. It runs on its own screen and allows easy transfer to and
from workbench programs. It runs BASIC faster than a BBC in
all cases, and 6502 assembly slower than a BBC on 68000
machines, and faster on '030/'040 machines. It stores files as
AmigaDOS files, not disk images.
THE EMULATOR supports graphics modes 0 - 7, common VDU
drivers, common OS procedures, printing, RS232 I/O, and sound
(except the ENVELOPE command). It does not support GCOL modes
1 - 3.
It will not run poorly behaved programs (ie programs that
communicate directly with the hardware.)
THE EMULATOR was produced by James Associates in the late
'80s/early '90s. It runs as-is on a 68000, and requires a
small patch to run on the '020 - '040. It is not known if JA

execute many BBC games. The source code (C) is known to
compile under Solaris 2.5 and Linux.
Features include support for NMOS 6502A and CMOS Rockwell
65C02 and 65C12 processors including all undocumented and
illegal opcodes, Model A and Model B emulation, almost full
support for the 6522 VIAs, mode 7 teletext support, emulation
of all bitmapped screen modes (with a few minor bugs), full
color support (including flashing colors), preliminary sound
support (under Linux/Voxware), FS emulation support (using
standard Unix files, not disk images), and sideways RAM and
ROM. The author's compatibility testing produced about a 90%
