Emulator Hot-Keys
There are several keys used to interact with the emulator while it is running. Heres a quick list of the main hot-keys and what they do.

F7 - Toggle Fast Disk Emulation
F9 - Invert Paddles
F10 - Toggle a2vid_palette (?)
F11 - Toggle Fullscreen Mode
F12 - RESET Key (so to hit “Ctrl-Reset” on an Apple II, you hit “Ctrl-F12”)

Other Input/Output
1. Mouse and keyboard should automatically work
2. Joystick with SDL2 driver is known to be working. It simply uses the “first” joystick and the first analog pad on that stick plus the first two buttons. The axes and buttons are not yet configurable. Better info forthcoming.
3. There are drivers for serial controller, ImageWriter (II?) printer, and networking. I may have broken some of this functionality to get builds working. Im not currently familiar with the state of these drivers or their usage. More info will be added as I take time to research more of the modules.
4. You can also drag-and-drop disk images onto the emulator window and it will try to automount the disk! (SDL versions)
Configuration Menu
Configuration options are loaded from, and saved to, a configuration text file. The default configuration file is config.txt. If you are just starting out, its recommended to use the configuration menu versus editing the file yourself.
Enter the configuration menu at any time while running GSplus by hitting <F4>.

Debugger Commands - BROKEN!!!
Sorry, the debugger is currently broken due to a change in debugging frameworks.
The documentation below is accurate, but does not currently work.

Enter all addresses using lower-case. As with the IIgs monitor, you can omit the bank number after having set it: 'e1/0010B' followed by '14B' will set breakpoints at e1/0010 and e1/0014
