- RPCEmu Windows Tips - Notes on the Windows version
- Dynamic recompiler technical documentation
Developer help wanted
In case you are a developer and want to spend some time on RPCEmu project, this is a non-exhaustive list of ideas to get you inspired:
- It would be a good thing to have Windows, Linux and Mac OS X ports unified.
- Address its emulation limitations (like host drive and network access)
- Test the dynamic recompiler
- Emulate the Portable_ReadBMUVariable SWI to read the host's battery state and a write RISC OS program to display it (Virtual Acorn also uses this interface, so the program would work on both emulated platforms)
There are currently two strands of networking: one for Linux and another for Windows.
