Long Description
==========================================
Short: C64 emulator, V1.5

Type: misc/emu
Frodo is a multitasking freeware C64 emulator for the Amiga.
OS2.1 and a 68020 (or better) are required, as well as copys of
the original C64 ROMs, which are not included.
This emulator focuses on the exact reproduction of special graphical
effects possible on the 64, and is therefore not very fast (using a
68040/25 and a Piccolo card gives about half of the original C64 speed).
However, using a line-based VIC model, it is capable of running most
games and demos correctly, even those with FLI, FLD, DYCP, open
top/bottom borders, multiplexed sprites etc. (but not AFLI and other
effects depending on exact VIC/6510 synchronization).
EGS, Picasso, CyBERgraphics and Merlin graphics cards are supported for
faster display. Using Amiga modes is possible, but slower (though
there's a very fast monochrome Amiga mode).
Some small demo programs and the full source code in assembly language
are included in the archive.
Changes from V1.4:
- Bug in joystick routines corrected
- Merlin graphics cards supported
- Danish, finnish, swedish and norwegian catalog files
