Cet émulateur est également le plus complet des outils de développements X68000 existant aujourd’hui. Il s’agit d’un fork de l’émulateur XM6 v2.05 de PI avec une pléthore de nouvelles fonctionnalités. Les changements sont pour la plupart liés à l’interface utilisateur et un accent a été mis sur le développement et les fonctions de débogage plutôt que sur l’exactitude de l’émulation, cependant il y a suffisamment d’améliorations pour qu’il soit recommandé d’utiliser cette version plutôt que XM6 v2.06 finale.
Les changements:
– This release introduces the Meta key feature which, when used in conjunction
with Automatic Controller Mode, makes Game Mode practically obsolete.
– The Meta key behaves like a new type of qualifier key (such as Shift) intended
for pressing X68000 keys that are only occasionally needed (e.g. Touroku).
– While the Meta key is depressed, the keyboard layout temporarily changes,
so you can, for example, press Meta-H to simulate toggling the Hiragana key
or Meta-F3 for XF3. Please see the manual for complete details and a list
of key translations.
– Investing a small amount of effort into learning this feature will frequently
save you the hassle of opening the Software Keyboard window or switching input
modes. Every X68000 key should now be pressable on full-size English keyboards.
– The Shift keys can now be mapped independently. If one is mapped to SHIFT and
the other is unmapped, both will function as X68000 SHIFT keys (this behavior
is identical to the way the Control keys map to the X68000 CTRL key.) Note that
if one or both Shift keys are mapped to any non-SHIFT key, the key translations
used for English keyboards will be disabled. (That caveat is not new.)
Bug fixes:
– Switching the disassembly search mode from binary to text could cause the
search to fail.
