Sinclair ZX Spectrum Emulator 'Z80' v3.03 - 29/12/94 - by G.A. Lunter
'Z80' is a shareware program. The program is not completely
functional, and the parts which are left out are included when you
register. You are encouraged to give this demo version to friends, but
DO NOT change the original archive in any way, please. The shareware
version of the emulator consists of the Z80-303.ZIP archive file, which
should contain the following 11 files:
Z80.EXE - The emulator
Z80.INI - Default initialisation file
Z80.PIF - Program Info File to run 'Z80' under Windows 3.1
Z80.ICO - Windows icon
Z80.DOC - Documentation file
Z80FAQ.DOC - Frequently asked questions - and answers!
REGISTER.DOC - This file
NEW.DOC - The What's New file
ROMS.BIN - Various ROM images
LAYOUT.SCR - Keyboard lay-out help screen
DIAGRAM.Z80 - Circuit diagram for tape interface, and calibration
The shareware version of the emulator differs from the registered
version in the following respects: it cannot be slowed down, it cannot
load from or save to tape, and it does not emulate the DISCiPLE and the
Plus D interfaces. Everything else works as in the registered version.
If you register, you get the fully working version, and the following
utilities:
CONVERT - a general conversion program: can list out BASIC and
tranlate it back, produce .GIF or .PCX files from
screen dumps, translate Spectrum ASCII (CR) to PC ASCII
(CR/LF), and some other things.
CONVZ80 - Translates various snapshot and tape formats of other
Spectrum emulators into each other. Can handle the
familiar .SNA format use by several emulators (JPP,
XZX,...), and also Pedro Gimeno's (VGASPEC and SPECTRUM)
.SP format and Kevin J. Phairs' (SPECEM) .PRG format.
It can also handle tape files of SPECEM and L. Rindt and
E. Brukner's emulator ZX.
DISCIPLE - Reads DISCiPLE and Plus D diskettes, both 3.5'' and
5.25''. It translates the 48K and 128K snapshot files
to .Z80 snapshots, and ordinary files and screen
snapshots to .TAP tape files. (Not necessary for the
fully registered version, but handy for the cheaper
one.)
Z802TAP - Converts a .Z80 snapshot, 48K or 128K, to a .TAP file
which can be loaded into the emulator and saved to tape
by the next utility:
TAP2TAPE - Saves the contents of a .TAP file back to tape, to load
it into an ordinary Spectrum.
TAP2VOC - Converts a .TAP file to a .VOC sound sample file, to
write to tape, or to load into the emulator.
READVOC - Reads in a long, 'digital' .VOC sound sample, to be
used as input to the emulator, from the LPT tape
interface or a SoundBlaster.
OUT2VOC - Converts .OUT log files into .VOC or raw sound sample
files, so that you can easily extract music samples from
Spectrum/Spectrum 128 games, or SAVE directly to a .VOC
or raw sample file.
Z80DUMP - Shows the header and the contents of a .Z80 file.
You will also receive the source files of the emulator, the above
utilities and the SamRam, and you will be kept informed about future
updates.
You can also choose to register for the emulator without DISCiPLE and
Plus D emulation, if you are not interested in those parts. The
registration fee is a bit lower then, and you will receive everything
stated above (including the DISCIPLE program), the only difference
being that you get a version of the emulator that will not emulate the
M.G.T. interfaces.
There are several registration sites, the main one being B.G. Services
in the U.K. You can also register with me in the Netherlands, or with
Jimaz in the Czech Republic, with Sinclair Freakeren in Denmark, David
Pomeroy in New Zealand and with FriendWare in Spain, whichever is most
convenient. Details follow:
