This is an Apple II port of **Conway's Game of Life**.

It should build with no modification on Linux, macOs and Windows 10 (using the bash).

---

It will produce the file *gol.a2*, which is an Apple II executable

**Prerequisite in order to build:**

* The [cc65 compiler suite](https://github.com/cc65/cc65), with the environment variable *CC65_HOME* set to its folder

**Prerequisite in order to produce the disk image**

* Java Runtime
* [*AppleCommander*](http://applecommander.sourceforge.net/)

**Embedding the Apple 2 binary into the disk image**

Run the *add-to-disk.sh* script.

**Splash screen**

The splash screen art is located in the *assets* folder. **It has to be
manually loaded** on the disk image using the *AppleCommander's GUI*, for the
command line loads a corrupted file!
This screen was converted from a PNG using [*Rgb2Hires*](https://github.com/Pixinn/Rgb2Hires).
