Unfortunately it looks like he's not logged in since November.

OK, maybe I'm overdoing it. However, it's come to my attention via BlueSky that there was a port of Chuckie Egg to the Tatung. I was just wondering how viable a conversion would be. :-) Apparently the MSX version is 99% the same as the Tatung but loaded from tape and probably hit the hardware rather...

Yeah... well, I've just built with the very latest version of the library and it's still creating a new window every time the settings are brought up. I don't think that it's at any other time.

Definitely doesn't work on a Mac... Some of the combinations bring up system stuff. At the moment the Command key brings up the MEMU settings window by the way. Oh, that brings me to the only real bug. The 80 column window keeps getting recreated and the old one orphaned. e.g. bring up the settings ...

None of my old Windows laptops have Fn+keys for keypad and Macs have never had this.

I've not tried previous versions but it would have to be an SDL version. Actually, I'd not tried MEMU before.

Thanks. I'll take a look ASAP. With regards to the keyboard, I was wondering if it would be possible to use a modifier key to map the keypad keys to the main keyboard for laptop users. The Apple keyboard has the "Command" key which maps to the SDL keycode SDLK_LGUI. I have no idea what thi...

Thanks... actually cmake was doing the right thing as there was a config for sdl3... but there were other issues. A couple of ones with CMakeList.txt files, nfx.c (the type SOCKET isn't defined) and main.c. In main.c your "UNIX" executable name determination was actually a Linux-ism. It wo...

Doesn't quite work, src/memu/CMakeLists.txt needs editing around line 220 to add an entry for Darwin. Now I'm going down the rabbit hole of "find_package" which seems to be overly complex. Why can't it just use environment variables as as "EXTRALIBS" and "EXTRAINCLUDES"...

macOS (or Darwin as the base UNIX OS is/was called) is a derivative of BSD 4.3 really so the system calls and C library are very similar. Yes, as I mentioned, I'm using the MacPorts installation of SDL3 (and compilers) which are installed as packages. Better to have someone else debug them than stru...

Changed memu.cfg and replaced '~E' with '.' and no crash and a booted MTX emulation! The colours in the MTX window look a bit odd though. memu-sdl.jpg Sound works. A bit problematic without a numeric keypad though as no "fire" etc. and trying to set MTX mode doesn't work as I can't "h...
