I am to pleased to announce the release of KEGS v0.84 at:

http://kegs.sourceforge.net/

KEGS is an Apple IIgs emulator for Mac OS X, Win32, Linux, and almost any
Unix with X11. Complete source code is included.

This release mostly has bugs fixes and small cosmetic improvements.

New in this release (since the last release, v0.82):
- Improved file browser for selecting disk images jumps to files when
you start typing their name. Disk images compressed with ".gz" are
opened autmatically.
- 3200 color picture support is more efficient on slower machines.
- Support for 14MB of IIgs memory. (Thanks to Geoff Weiss)
- Linux serial port code fixed to avoid hangs.

Binaries are available for the Mac, Windows, and Linux at the web site.
You need to provide ROMs in files.

This is the main KEGS release--there are specialized ports done by other
people to Windows (called KEGS32) and Mac OS X (called KEGS-OSX), and
links to those ports are available at the website.
