+GSPLUS ALPHA
+============
+
+This is an early release of an experimental project to modernize the 
+KEGS/GSport emulator platform and eventually extend it.  
+
+The first steps are represented here.  This release features a new SDL2 driver.
+SDL or "Simple DirectMedia Layer" allows me to write one driver to handle input
+and output (video, mouse, keyboard, audio, joystick).  The hope is that I can
+leverage the multi-platform nature of SDL to provide first-class support for 
+the major plaforms supported by SDL, which includes Mac OSX, Windows and Linux.
+
+I'm not a huge fan of OSX, but I keep a MacBook Pro nearby for work, so the 
+first version to be release is this OSX build.  I'll try to have builds for
+other platforms available in a few weeks.  
+
+
+
+Some notes:
+I took out the "middle-click to enter debug" because it's stupid.  No one wants
+to use their mouse wheel to enter a debugger.  *smacks forehead*
+If you want to enter debug, it's shift-F6.  F6 is speed up, same as right and
+middle mouse.
+
+The big feature is FULLSCREEN SUPPORT! Yaya!  Hit F11 for full-screen.  My Mac
+has some stupid expose feature mapped over this, so I basically hit
+control-fn-F11 and it works.  Stupid Macs.  :P
+
+I haven't changed much else at this point.  This is an experimental driver and
+a very early release, so I'm not looking for feedback.  Please don't tell me
+about it rendering weird, making funny noises, crashing your computer, stealing
+your car, or blowing up your house.  
+
+Please be aware that this is based on KEGS original source by Kent Dickey, so 
+I must provide the source as per the original license.  
+
+I'd recommend you not really try building it at this time, but if you want, go 
+for it.
