There are plenty of packages in contrib that depend on stuff that isn't packaged, or doesn't have a Debian package that is distributed by the Debian Project. Package: xtrs Priority: extra Section: contrib/otherosfs Installed-Size: 1052 Maintainer: Branden Robinson <branden@debian.org> Architecture: i386 Version: 4.9-2 Depends: debconf, libc6 (>= 2.3.1-1), libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20020112a-1), libreadline4 (>= 4.3-1), xlibs (>> 4.1.0) Filename: pool/contrib/x/xtrs/xtrs_4.9-2_i386.deb Size: 311440 MD5sum: 8485b600ddcf88c6e01cb78d8680059e Description: emulator for TRS-80 Model I/III/4/4P computers xtrs is an X-based emulator for the Tandy/Radio Shack line of Zilog Z-80-based microcomputers popular in the late 1970's and early 1980's. It features cassette, floppy, and hard drive emulation, timer interrupt emulation, file import and export from the host operating system, support for most of the undocumented Z-80 instructions, and a built-in debugger. Real floppy drives can be used, and, if an OSS-compatible sound driver is available, application-based sound can be played and real cassettes read and written directly through the sound card or via WAVE files. Several hi-res graphics cards are emulated and, in Model 4/4P mode, mice are supported. There is also real-time clock, sound card, serial port, joystick, and CPU clock speedup emulation. . xtrs requires ROM images from the original machines. The ROMs are copyrighted by Radio Shack and are not freely licensed. (Exception: in Model 4P mode, a freely licensed boot ROM included with this package can be used to boot a Model 4 operating system from a diskette image.) Instructions are provided for retrieval of TRS-80 ROM images by those who may legally use them. -- G. Branden Robinson | I've made up my mind.
