-epple2 is written in C++, and is designed to be buildable

-The SDL library (http://www.libsdl.org) is the only dependency
-of epple2 (see below).
-
-The epple2 is released under GPLv3.

-RUNNING
--------
-SDL:
-To run epple2, you need to have the SDL libraries installed.
-See http://www.libsdl.org for information on SDL.
-You'll need to download and install the "Runtime Libraries"
-for your platform (Win32 or Linux).
-
-ROM:
-With epple2 and SDL, you can run the emulator, but it won't
-do too much without the appropriate Apple ROM code. You can
-use ROM images from your own original Apple ][ or ][ plus, or
-you can find some on the Internet (check the Asimov Apple
-repository).
-Alternatively, you can build the ROMs yourself from assembly
-language source files I've created; these are available in
-the apple2src project. (See that project for details).
-
-Disks:
-You will also probably want floppy disk images. Again, you can
-download some from the Internet, especially from Asimov. The
-epple2 only reads NIBBLE IMAGES. If you only have 16 sector
-images, you will need to convert them to nibble images; you
-can use CiderPress (http://ciderpress.sourceforge.net).

-
-BUILDING
---------
-See INSTALL for generic instructions on building and installing
-a normal distribution.
-
-If you want to build epple2 from the source distribution,
-you'll need to have the SDL development libraries installed.
-See http://www.libsdl.org for information on SDL.
-You'll need to download and install the "Development Libraries"
-for your platform (Win32 or Linux).
-
-Developers fetching directly from the repository instead of
-downloading the distribution will need to execute the bootstrap
-script before running ./configure or make.
-
-
-
-PLATFORM-SPECIFIC BUILDING
---------------------------
-
-Windows/MSYS
---------------
-Install MSYS into C:\MSYS\1.0
-Install MinGW into C:\mingw
-
-Install SDL. At http://www.libsdl.org/ find the download page.
-Download the "Development Libraries" for Win32, mingw, for example:
-SDL-devel-1.2.13-mingw32.tar.gz (Mingw32)
-And save it to your MSYS home directory.
-Untar the SDL archive to your home directory:
-$ cd
-$ tar xzvf SDL-devel-1.2.13-mingw32.tar.gz
-Then follow the instructions to install SDL, for example:
-$ cd SDL-1.2.13
-$ make native
-
-
-
-Run MSYS, and at the bash prompt, go to your home directory and
-untar the epple2 source distribution tar file and cd to the
-epple2 directory. For example:
-$ cd
-$ tar xzvf epple2-1.0.tar.gz
-
-NOTE: If you checked out epple2 from subversion, rather
-than downloading the distribution, you need to first run
-the bootstrap script. But first you'll need to install
-autoconf, automake, etc.
-$ cd
-$ cd epple2
-$ ./bootstrap
-
-
-
-Then build as follows. I recommend doing a VPATH build, in
-which you build into a different directory that the source
-directory. To accomplish this, create a new directory for
-building, somewhere, such as:
-$ cd
-$ mkdir buildepple2
-$ cd buildepple2
-Then run configure from there. For the MSYS build to work,
-you need some extra parameters to the build, and you could
-also add some compiler options to optimize the build. For
-example (from the buildepple2 directory you just created):
-$ ~/epple2/configure --prefix= \
-CXXFLAGS="-I/usr/include -O4 -msse3" \
-CFLAGS="-I/usr/include" \
-LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -mconsole -mthreads -mno-cygwin"
-$ make
-$ make install
-
-Then follow the instruction above under "RUNNING" for ROM and disks.
++epple2+ is released under GPLv3.
