Jean, you do me an injustice!

Feel free to play it here [1], as you see I have even prepared
zsh scripts for you to facilitate even more for you to play
it ...

And not just that, here is another screenshot [2] showing
a bunch of games - back then, you could sure fit a lot of
games on a 1.44M floppy. Those games are absolutely not
comparable to Dark Castle or Beyond Dark Castle tho and this
also show in size - for example, Dark Castle (with Finder, the
OS) need a whole 800K floppy to run!

Only a small warning, reduce volume before you start it as it
is set hy by default! That's partly what those scripts do but
that won't work for you without this file [3] so you have to
do it manually ... if you can manage ;) The scripts should
work fine anyway to just run the emulator.

But, how did you program for the early Macs (e.g., Mac Plus
which is emulated here) without Emacs? You'd use some other
editor I take it, anyone has details on that?
