Short: MSX emulator, req. 68020/OS2.0
Author: h.guijt@inter.nl.net

Type: misc/emu
fMSX Amiga is an Amiga port of fMSX UNIX. It emulates the MSX computer
system. The emulation requires an 68020 and the v36 OS (or better). Fastram
is not required but essential for good performance.
Depending on the task at hand it is about as fast as a real MSX on my
a4000/30, sometimes even a tad faster.
This is a complete emulation of an MSX1 computer, but the final goal for
fMSX is to emulate an MSX2 machine. For this reason I still number it v0.8
instead of v1.0.
In this version, many MSX2 features are supported, and some MSX2 games
(though not all) are in fact playable: Metal Gear, Firebird, Vampire Killer
and Kings Valley 2 MSX2 fall in this category.
New features in this release include support for two joysticks, better
Z80 emulation, greater speed, less bugs (the 'Konami-bug' is gone!) and
small improvements to the user interface.
Many games for MSX are available through FTP or WWW. Sitenames can be found
in the documentation.
