That is great! Do you think that the downsized screen on H100 series (160x128 pixels) will be usable?

Absolutely fantastic stuff, I've got to see this on my H110 :)

Have you some idea how the keyboard control is going to work?

i was planning to have some predefined layouts as qaop from which user could choose mappings for his player buttons .. kempston jostick among them... and for other input, such as 'press S to start game' in 'Chuckie Egg' use virtual keyboard

If my wife found out chuckie egg could be played on my 5g it would be confiscated, took me long enough getting her off the PC.   :D ;D

Spectrum games are most definately subject to copyright.

What's the state of this?
I would really like to see this running on my (newly purchased!) iRiverH320.

I will try the patch out tonight, when I get home, if I have time.
Mind you, now th feature freeze is lifted, can't we get this into CVS?

Hmmm, Monty on the run, Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy, Pyjarama....exciting!
