2. Installing the simulator

This chapter is incomplete.

2.1 Getting the simulator

The home page for the simulator is located at: http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/Harbor/8707/simulator/sim68xx

From this homepage, you can download executable programs and source code.

In this document, the source code package is named sim68xx.tar.gz or sim68xx.zip.

The following are examples of installing the simulator.

2.2 Installing on unix

If you downloaded a binary version, you can skip the compiling.

Extracting the archive

 unix$ tar xfz sim68xx.tar.gz 

 unix$ unzip sim68xx.zip 

Compiling the source code

Perform this step if downloaded the source. You need GNU make v.3.70 or greater.

 unix$ cd src

 unix$ make 

Installing the binaries

The binaries are located in src/boards. Copy the binaries to a directory in the search path. The simulator can be run without copying the binaries, though.

2.3 Installing on DOS/Windows

Please note that the MSDOS version does not exist, use the Win95/NT version instead. If you downloaded a binary version, you can skip the compiling.

Extracting the archive

 MSDOS> unzip -a sim68xx.zip 

 MSDOS> pkunzip -d sim68xx.zip 

Compiling the source code

Perform this step if downloaded the source. You need the GCC compiler for Win32 and GNU make v.3.70 or greater.

 MSDOS> cd src

 MSDOS> gnumake -f makefile.w32 

Installing the binaries

The binaries are located in src\boards. Copy the binaries to a directory in the search path. The simulator can be run without copying the binaries, though.
