Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Package name : lib765 Version : 0.2.0 Upstream Author : John Elliott URL : http://www.seasip.demon.co.uk/Unix/LibDsk/ Licence : GPL v2 Description : uPD765a FDC emulation library
lib765 is an emulation of the uPD765a (AKA Intel 8272) Floppy Disc Controller [FDC] as used in Amstrad computers such as the PCW, CPC and ZX Spectrum +3. At present it is not a "full" 765 emulation; features not used in the PCW BIOS (such as: DMA; multisector reads/writes; multitrack mode; read/write deleted data) are either left unimplemented or incomplete. As is usual for libraries, there is a complementary -dev package. (Since I am currently applying to become a DD, a sponsor is required.) -- | Darren Salt | nr.
