Back end is based on gngb (http://membres.lycos.fr/frogus/gngb/index.html) which is an SDL, GPL, gameboy emulator.
Front end is based on the qtopiagnuboy (http://www.slac.com/~mpilone/projects/qtopiagnuboy.phtml) launcher (LGPL)
Game controls:
| GB | Zaurus |
| A | DateBook button |
| B | Contacts button |
| Arrows | Direction keypad |
| Select | Enter (must use hardware keyboard) |
| Start | Space (or the center button inside directions) |
| RESET | Typically on the gameboy, SELECT+START+A+B reset the game; simply press the menu button once to reset the emulator. |
| PowerOff |
The HOME button (directly above UP) closes down the emulator; the cancel key is disabled to prevent the emulator from quitting on multiple-keypresses.
| Keybd | Action |
| s | Takes a timestamped screencap of the gameboy screen and saves it in ~/Documents/ |
| f | Enables the FPS display |
| c | Turns on the keycode display (useful for finding the SDL keycodes of buttons in-game -- this isn't useful for the average user) |
Please let me know if you have any suggestions to be implemented or ways
to make it more user friendly.
