jollygood (the Jolly Good Emulation API and Reference Frontend)
|
|
|
|
Jolly Good Emulation is an education and preservation oriented
|
|
emulation project. As a side effect, it offers emulation technology
|
|
that extreme minimalists may find tolerable.
|
|
|
|
This package includes "jg" (the API headers) and "jgrf". jgrf is the
|
|
simplest possible frontend for The Jolly Good API. The executable and
|
|
man page are called "jollygood".
|
|
|
|
After installing jollygood, you'll want to install "cores" (plugins)
|
|
for the systems you want to emulate. Search for "jgemu" to find them
|
|
on SBo. Also, if you want to install all the cores at once, use sbopkg
|
|
or sbotools and either "jollygood-all-cores.sqf" (for 64-bit) or
|
|
"jollygood-all-cores-32bit.sqf" from the SlackBuild directory.
|
|
|
|
Ideally, once a core is installed, you can run games for that system
|
|
with "jollygood <filename>", where <filename> is either a ROM or disk
|
|
image, or a .zip file containing the image. This only works if the
|
|
filename extension is known to jollygood. If you get "Cannot detect
|
|
default core", you'll have to use the -c option to tell it what core
|
|
to use. See also the jollygood(6) man page.
|
|
|
|
If you're considering submitting a SlackBuild for a jollygood core,
|
|
please read GUIDELINES.txt.
