Dear Apple II users,

The barrels of nostalgia strike back on Mac OS X ...
Darrell and I have just finished the port of the KEGS emulator on
Mac OS X ! In fact it works pretty fine and we are fixing the last
bugs our beta testers reported.
This version 0.63 is a port to the Cocoa environment with a lot of
optimization done, both on the original source code and in Cocoa
integration. All the functions of the original KEGS, plus some wonderful

tricks made specially for Mac OS X. We made the port because no Apple //

GS emulators were ready for the Mac OS X environment and at the same
time, we tried to make the fastest port possible (we mean really fast!).

Hope you will enjoy it.

We would be interested to have more beta testers if these ones dare
to try MODULAE at 120 Mhz...

Benoit
