Subject: Emulator

After reading about the interest in emulators, I thought that I would post
this pre-release notice.  Several years back (you've heard this before...)
I wrote an 8080 emulator that ran CP/M modulo a couple of minor bugs.  I was
in the process of upgrading it to a Z80 emulator when I became interested in
other things.  I have been playing with it again and may even finish it...

My emulator is written in C for BSD Unix.  I intend it to be public-domain.
I keep my copy of CP/M 2.2 in hex on-line for testing, but users will have
to supply their own copy.  Perhaps someone could come up with some "free"
alternatives.

I have several "devices" that can be accessed:
1) multiple ttys
2) emulated disks (one disk per Unix file)
3) Unix file access

If anyone has ideas of things that they would like to see in a portable
emulator, let me know and I will try to work them in.  It may take a while,
but if there is enough interest, it may keep me interested...
