Apple II Audit

This repository contain routines to audit Apple II computers (II, II+, IIe, IIc), providing information about hardware, ROM versions, RAM configuration, and behavior.

Eventually, it should comprise an emulator test suite, enabling emulator writers to systematically identify and eliminate perceptible differences from real hardware. If a difference visible to code can be found, a test should be added to this suite.

Status

I'm just getting started, currently working on:

  • experimenting with toolchains for automation
  • preliminary floating-bus vsync examples
  • sha1sum assembly code

This test suite is a step on the way to implementing Apple IIe (enhanced) support in OpenEmulator: I may alternate adding tests here and features there.
