-
Hi!
ZEsarUX 5.0 is out! :)
You can download it from the URL:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/zesarux/Finally I have succeded emulating Sinclair QL. I dedicated a lot of hours trying to guess how the keyboard work.
There is little documentation and I had to do lots of dissassemblies of the ROM and testing keyboard to know how it work...
So, hard work, this is a Quantum Leap, so this is a new major version, 5.0!
Complete changelog:Added Sinclair QL emulation
Added remote command protocol. You can do enhanced debugging on ZEsarUX by using a telnet client.
There are a lot of commands, even many commands exclusive to this protocol and not found on the GUI, like:- load-source-code
- hexdump-internal
- set-register
Added Easter Egg ;)
Added Specdrum emulation
Added RZX playback support
Added Multiface One, 128 and Three emulation
Added setting to write configuration file
Added menu item to reload IDE and MMC contents from file. You can now modify a used file outside the emulator and reload its contents

Some other minor bugfixes and improvements -
@chernandezba Nice one - thanks. Have updated it in RetroPie-Setup. I like the QL (less so the unreliable microdrives).

@buzz Hello, I noticed that Zesarux already has a 7.0 version, but from the Retropie Setup I just get 5.0 one, could it be updated? Thanks a lot
