Quick status Update on my Open Source Emulator written in Python...


The current state is, that Dragon 32 / 64 ROMs works well in text mode!

You can paste BASIC statements or listing via clipboard and run BASIC programms. 
Pasting is slow, but it works generally. More info:

I started to add a CoCo, too. But don't know much about CoCo. Seems that CoCo 1 
and 2 are very similar to the Dragon Hardware, but CoCo 3 is more advanced.

At least i have to change the keyboard matrix.

I just used the CoCo "Color BASIC v1.3" ROM... It's "boots up" and i see the 
color animated cursor... But input doesn't work yet. Maybe the PIA kerboard 
polling is a little bit changed, than the Dragon ROM code...
