There are a few principles that guide -it's development: +MESS is an acronym that stands for Multi Emulator Super System. MESS will +more or less faithfully reproduce computer and console systems on a PC. +MESS can currently emulate over 250 systems from the last 5 decades. -1) Run on Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, and other SDL supported operating systems with - as few changes as possible to the base Win32 code. This means we can track - changes faster than larger more conventional ports such as MacMAME, and we - also maintain what I call "Firefox compatibilty" where learning a major app - only needs to be done once per application, and it then applies across many - operating systems. If you can use the command-line Win32 MAME, you already - know how to use SDLMAME on any platform you may encounter it on. +MESS emulates the hardware of the systems and sometimes utilizes ROM +images to load programs and games. Therefore, these systems are NOT +simulations, but the actual emulations of the hardware. -2) MAME developers are important. By keeping quickly up to date, we make it - easy for people on non-Windows platforms to make and submit changes to the - core MAME code, and we offer native implementations of MAME's multi-window - GUI debugger on both Linux/Unix and Mac OS X. - -WWW: http://rbelmont.mameworld.info/?page_id=163 +WWW: http://www.mess.org/ |
