PalmOS port of Basilisk possible?
I was just wondering if it mite be possible to create a port of Basilisk II to PalmOS.
The palm pilot has a type of 68K processor (the palm emulators processor core is the same UAE one as basilisk) so it could be possible to run it sorta nativley.
I relise palm is a very limited platform to develop for - but surely we mite be able to have 512K Mac Emu or somethin (use the Mac Classic rom with mac os 6 built in ).
Anyways just an idea...

Yes i was thinking something smaller like WORM or similar. Start at 512K mac emu on palm?
Well i'll submit the ideas to some developers - and depending on wat they say I might have a go at it myself (the only emu i have written was a quater-finished nes emu).
Who knows - we might be staying at a smily mac on our palm (complete with scrollbars).

well i started porting mini vMac across to palm - but got stuck allocating memory.
if any palm developers wanna help me please email me at peterrules4eva@hotmail.com.
anyways - while it might be possible to do (esp now that theres ARM based palms with higher res screens) - i dont have the skill to do such a thing.
