There are some redirections which might be possible to get with wget -r -k -l 3 where 3 is the depth of the indirect retrieval hyperlinks. |

Aparently VFD.VXD is a floppy drive controller. The depth at which I find single sentences that say this. I tried disabling the floppy. still no good. |

i read The Atlantic article of the Mac emulator on the IA and I wanted to help out. |

awesome - welcome! what's your main area of interest? |

|
bai |
that could be interesting....I know javascript has some ways to programatically copy stuff into the clipboard, and events to paste...there are some weird security restrictions about it though |
|
20:12
🔗
|
bai |
even if it doesn't go directly to the user's real clipboard though, maybe when you copy in the emulator it could put that text into an html element, and you could copy from there |
|
20:13

|
d1r7y |
yeah, i can't speak to anything about javascript, but I did a lot of Mac development. I was thinking of writing an extension which ran on the Mac, which communicated via a paravirtualized channel to the emulator. Do you folks already have such a mechanism in the emulator? |
|

hmm, I'm not as familiar with what capabilities PCE.js exposes, most of my experience is with msdos (em-dosbox) and mame (jsmess) |

|
d1r7y |
can someone point me to the code for the emulator? i could look and see if anything like that exists. |
|
20:15
🔗
|
bai |
the closest I can think to that sort of thing would be dosbox's serial emulation, we used that to hook it in to a virtualized dial-up ISP running on AWS |

Sorry, my manners. To the Emularity team. I'm an old mac I go way back. Last time I was doing serious c/c++ code was back in 1993 for a HPOS company. but many gigs and projects between then and now. I'm at JohnTalent.com. If you have any questions or need assitance I can be reached at that emails or in this chat. I'm also at @_johntalent_ on twitter. |
