BeebEm is a BBC Micro and Master 128 emulator. It enables you to run BBC Micro software on your PC. BeebEm was first developed for UNIX systems in 1994 by David Gilbert (Dave’s page) and was then ported to Microsoft Windows.
BeebEm Change History
=====================
Version 4.0 (Mike Wyatt, Rob O’Donnell, Steve Pick)
———–
* Added clipboard functionality from the Mac port. Clipboard can be set as
destination for printer output, copy and paste menu options for BASIC
programs.
* Added file import/export for DFS disc images loaded into BeebEm. The
exported files use the standard archive format where .INF files store the
file attributes.
* Added support for disc, state and tape file specific preferences. When
loading a file from the command line, running a disk image or loading a
state file BeebEm will check for Preferences.cfg and Roms.cfg files in the
same folder as the image file. This makes it easier to set up different
preferences for different programs.
* Added ALT-ENTER keypress to toggle fullscreen mode.
* Creation of registry entries at installation:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BeebEm\InstallPath
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BeebEm\Version
* Reduced the tape control window size so it fits on a Netbook screen.
* Added Rob’s IP options for serial port emulation. Allows connection via
TCP/IP to local or remote IP address. Incoming connections can be
supported via utilities such as tcpser.
* Debugger enhancements from Steve:
- User-defined breakpoints and watches.
- Break on BRK instruction.
- Support for loading VICE format label files, as generated by LD65 - this
lets you use text labels in place of addresses in all debugger commands.
- Memory map file allows short descriptions for memory ranges. Debugger
will use this to describe what location it’s entered OS code at, or
where the break landed.
- Commands to toggle various UI checkboxes.
- Command to echo a line of text to debugger output.
- Debugger commands can now be loaded from a script file specified on the
BeebEm command line (with -DebugScript). Simple comments are also
supported.
- Sanitized some code, added DisplayDebugInfoF(format, …) to output
formatted debugging info, sprintf() style.
- Beautified the debugging UI a bit.

VMware Workstation create and run multiple virtual machines on your desktop or laptop computer. You can convert an existing physical PC into a VMware virtual machine, or create a new virtual machine from scratch. Each virtual machine represents a complete PC, including the processor, memory, network connections and peripheral ports.

Stella release 2.7.5 for Linux, Mac OSX and Windows is now available. Ports to other operating systems will be released as they become available.
After about 2 years, finally fixed the infamous ‘red screen’ issue when using ATI video cards in OpenGL mode in Windows. In the end, it was determined to be a bug in the ATI drivers. Special thanks go to Ant (http://aqfl.net) for bugtesting and constant feedback wrt this bug.
Fixed bug in TIA SCORE mode emulation when the Priority bit is also set. This fixes a very noticable graphical glitch in ‘Swordquest Waterworld’, as well as minor glitches in several other ROMs such as ‘Space Shuttle’.
Treat spaces as normal characters in the ROM launcher. This means that ROMs with spaces can be located with quick selection (ie, typing characters will automatically jump to a ROM with that name, and typing ’space’ won’t cause the launcher to jump back to the top of the list).
The debugger window can now have a minimum height of 620 lines (previously the minimum was 690), but you lose access to the TIA ‘RAM’ bytes when using this resolution. This should allow it to work better on devices with small displays.
Have Fun!
