[Coco] Is anyone else using Xroar?

[Al Hartman]

Since XRoar only does Coco 2, and not Coco 3. I'm not going to go crazy 
setting it up.

Thanks!

Al,
The Windows GTK snaps of XRoar were a hack put together by someone else (not 
the author) and there is no support. So, you're on your own for the most 
part.
I have both the 32bit and 64bit versions running on Vista 64bit. I had to 
experiment and needed almost every package on the GTK website. I get all the 
menus though one or two do not function properly.
I can send you a list of the packages I have in the XRoar directory for 
comparison if you'd like.
Also, I think there is a config parameter you can insert in the config file 
to bring up the menus, but if all the GTK parts are not there, it still will 
not show.
There is definately more functionality with XRoar with the menus. There are 
some things that there are no "command keys" for and can only be set in the 
menus.
