Oricutron

Oricutron (formerly known as Oriculator) is an emulator for the Oric series of computers. It is written in plain C, and uses SDL. It is designed to be portable.

If you want to discuss Oricutron, or Oric in general, why not join us in #oric on IRCNet?

Changes since v0.7:

• Uses "T" as a shortcut for insert tape (revolf)
• Clipboard support on BeOS & OS X (revolf)
• Fixed OVRAM update glitch (stefan h)

• Various updates to included ROM symbol files (revolf/stefan h)
• Fixed broken ROR ABS,X

• Fixed DEC ABS cycle count
• Disk sector writes now start with 0xfb instead of 0xf8

Notes about AVI capture

The AVI export uses the MRLE codec. Your favourite player might not support it, but MPlayer plays it, ffmpeg converts it and you can upload it directly to youtube.

Note that the MRLE codec shows up some endian-issues on the Amiga OS4 port of MPlayer, so it will sound crappy and have wrong colours until those bugs are fixed :-(
