It reminds me of Xedit :-) (At my uni we also had a VM mainframe). During the weekend I found some small snags that would have prevented my emulation to work properly, but as far as I'm aware what's checked in in VICE now should work. > About a year ago, I scanned the issues of "SuperPET Gazette", > published by ISPUG.
