The keyboard graphic responds to mouse clicks, touch events, and key presses.
Hold your shift key while clicking the PET keyboard to get the graphics
characters.
(The emulator simulates pressing the PET's left shift-key at the
same time as the clicked key.)
Changing the size of memory or changing the ROM version forces a reset of the PET.
The emulator has an IEEE-488 device at address 8. It can be used load and save (.prg) files.
Some programs don't run on ROM1 and some require more memory than the default 8K.
Game Notes
May include inaccurate AI generated contentFLIGHT! brings something new to CURSOR: a little movie with animation and sound. This program tells the story of a Canadian moon landing. The author was from Vancouver, so he's showing a little home-town bias here. The movie is simple but showcases creative applications of the PETSCII character set. I remember being enthralled by this program in the early 1980s. Although it may be a little slow for modern tastes, this one's still worth a watch today.
