⚠️ Attention: this repository is no longer being maintained. There will be no further work done on the patch, and no new binary releases will be created when future RPCEmu versions are released. Anyone who wishes to do so is welcome to use the work in this repository to create their own patches and/or binary releases. ⚠️

This is a development repository for RPCEmu, an Acorn RISC PC emulator for Windows, Mac and Linux. It is intended for use in developing and testing patches before they are submitted to the mailing list for inclusion in the original source tree.

The current version of RPCEmu, and the version upon which these patches are built, is 0.9.3.

The home page for RPCEmu can be found here: http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/.

This repository contains the following patches:

  • Version 4 of the main OS X patch.
  • A patch to change the magic key combination for exiting capture mouse mode.

The sections below outline each patch in more detail.

OS X patch - version 4

This patch provides the following:

  • Keyboard support (required due to the way that QT exposes keyboard information).
  • Network support, using the new SLIRP functionality added in 0.9.2. This enables use of email, FTP, the web and so on.
  • Dynamic compilation support for later versions of OS X (including High Sierra, Mojave and Catalina).
  • Configurable data folder setting, allowing the application to reside in a different folder to its settings.
  • A non-Mac specific fix for an issue with locating the Ethernet driver (kindly provided by David Pitt).
  • A non-Mac specific fix for processing of mouse events when the application is terminating.

Magic key/capture mouse patch

By default, the key combination for exiting mouse capture mode in RPCEmu is Ctrl+End. There is no dedicated "End" key on Mac laptop keyboards, so this patch changes the magic keys to Ctrl+Command.
