[hatari-devel] 6301 emulation : work in progress

[LAURENT SALLAFRANQUE]

OK, so I have a few more questions :

- Should I continue to code the 6301 ?
( I've already coded half the cpu main core).

- Can we imagine to have a new entrance in the parameters to select a 6301 ROM ?
If the file is selected, hatari runs with the emulated cpu, else, it runs with Nicolas' fake emulation ?

- Is the 6301 ROM the same for every atari computer ? 
( I mean 520 Stf, 1040 Ste, TT, Falcon, Hades, Milan, ...)

- Is the 6301 ROM the same for every country ?
( does a french and a german falcon have the same 6301 ROM) ?

- I think Saint includes a real 6301 emulation. 
Do you think they include the ROM directly in the binary ?
Is this allowed ?
