Running the emulator

No installation required. Download the single file executable izapple2xxx_xxx for linux or Mac, SDL2 graphics or console. Build from source to get the latest features.

Default mode

Execute without parameters to have an emulated Apple //e Enhanced with 128kb booting DOS 3.3 ready to run Applesoft:

casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl

DOS 3.3 started

Play games

Download a DSK or WOZ file or use an URL (Asimov is an excellent source):

casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl "https://www.apple.asimov.net/images/games/action/karateka/karateka (includes intro).dsk"

Karateka

Play the Total Replay collection

Download the excellent Total Replay compilation by a2-4am:

casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2sdl Total\ Replay\ v4.0.hdv

Displays super hi-res box art as seen with the VidHD card.

Total Replay

Terminal mode

To run text mode right on the terminal without the SDL2 dependency, use izapple2console. It runs on the console using ANSI escape codes. Input is sent to the emulated Apple II one line at a time:

casa@servidor:~$ ./izapple2console -model 2plus

Building from source

Linux

Besides having a working Go installation, install the SDL2 developer files. Run:

git clone github.com/ivanizag/izapple2
cd izapple2/frontend/a2sdl
go build .

Windows

On Windows, CGO needs a gcc compiler. Install mingw-w64 and the SDL2 developer files for mingw-64.

Run:

git clone github.com/ivanizag/izapple2
cd izapple2\frontend\a2sdl
go build .

To run in Windows, copy the file SDL2.dll on the same folder as a2sdl.exe. The latest SDL2.dll can be found in the Runtime binary for Windows 64-bit.

Use docker to cross compile for Linux and Windows

To create executables for Linux and Windows without installing Go, SDL2 or the Windows cross compilation toosl, run:

cd docker
./build.sh
