This project contains a number of tools and libraries for emulating the Motorola 68000 chipset; used in devices like the Apple Macintosh, Sega Megadrive and Commodore Amiga.

WARNING This project is an incomplete work in progress.

The goal of this project is less about performance or competing with existing emulators. It's more about enabling a better development and learning experience for novices like me.

$ go get github.com/cavaliercoder/go-m68k/...

Compile the following Motorola 68000 assembly using a supported compiler:

* Test 68000 simulator program WRCHAR EQU 6 Trap # for write D1.B char to screen ORG $1000 LEA MESSAGE(PC),A0 Point A0 to start of message NEXT MOVE.B (A0)+,D1 Get character, increment pointer BEQ.S FINISH Exit if end MOVE.B #WRCHAR,D0 Set up trap to write to screen TRAP #15 Write char. to screen BRA.S NEXT ..and loop back FINISH STOP #$2700 Halt MESSAGE DC.B 'Hello world!',$0D,$0A,0 END $1000 

Run the program:

$ m68k hello-world.h68 Hello world!
