Scripple ][...

Well, somebody had to do it ... Apple ][ emulation in Javascript.
It's a bit of a hack, and buggy, and not really useful either.
Nevertheless, thanks to the magic of Google Web Toolkit:
http://scripple-2.appspot.com/

Notes:
- Type in the input box indicated - and hit enter a few times first
- Unfortunately I'd have to recommend IE at this stage
- Firefox and Chrome work but there is a scrolling (table) bug to
squash
- It's 48k, text-only, no disk or other hardware, just the DO-F8 ROMs
- Entering the monitor with call-151 is probably the most fun

If anyone wants the source, email me. It's a Java project in Eclipse.
I'll get around to uploading it somewhere eventually.

Cheers,
Nick.

Indeed !

Was kind of my first idea when I read about the Google Web Toolkit :-)

Seems that from the performance perspective the Javascript engines
still have some way to go until an Apple ][ emulation is a must-have
;-)

Thanks for figuring this out so I don't have to...

Best, Oliver

I bet. Now with the Eclipse plugin, it's a piece of cake.

Check out Chrome; it's quite fast despite the table bug.

My pleasure. No really! Wink
This took a mere 200 or so lines of code to get working.

Cheers,
Nick.
