    teo-emulator

    teo-emulator

    Teo is an emulator of the Thomson TO8 microcomputer

    Teo is an emulator of the Thomson TO8 microcomputer for PC, running on MSDOS, Windows and Linux. The compatibility is close to 100% for softwares which don't use non emulated peripherals and don't hold physical protections. In other words, if a software doesn't work on Teo, so probably : 1. it needs the presence of another peripheral than mouse, light-pen, joystick, tape recorder and disks (so it won't run as long as this peripheral is not emulated), 2. its physical protection makes it fail.

    WinDS

    WinDS

    Windows XP reimplemented on Nintendo DS

    WinDS is a Reimplementation of the OS Windows(R) XP(R) on the Platform Nintendo DS. Since i started coding Apps for the NDS, my goal was to write a program, called WinDS, which does (nearly) the same as the real appy by Microsoft. In contrast to other little NDS-Operating Systems, just like Woopsi etc. you can code your own Application in Lua for WinDS: just copy the Code onto the FAT-Disk and execute it from within WinDS! This is what makes WinDS so unique. The New Beta 0.95 is out, it features - 52 Classes that are already available within Lua - 25 different types of user interface classes - 8 different predefined dialogs which makes it the perfect GUI sandbox for DS. PS: More time without update means: next update will have even more improvements, as i am still developing ;)
