[Qemu-devel] Re: Re: Z80 emulation updated again!
Here's an update of the Z80 system emulator, which currently emulates the ZX Spectrum only. [...] [...] do you think it's a valuable target to have in upstream qemu? The z80 was also used in the more modern TI-83 Plus programmable calculator [1], for instance (chosen for school use in Baden-Württemberg in the early 2000s). There was Yes, all Ti8x models except 89 (and 92 which are 68000 based) are z80 based. There are already several emulators to compare to. an assembler toolchain integrated with Zilog Studio on Windows iirc. Apparently there's also an open source C compiler toolchain at [2] for these and other targets. No Linux that I'm aware of. ;) http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/ ? I'm not sure if we ever had a ti-specific z80 compiler like tigcc was for 68k-based models, maybe check on http://www.ticalc.org/ François.

At one point there was a community and quite a few games for it :). The issue with emulating it is that you need a proprietary ROM that can't be redistributed. I think the same goes for the other TI graphing calculators. Stefan

OTH they did send a DMCA letter to those who breached their signing process to make their own flash app. François.
