Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Advanced Mac Substitute is factored into back end (the emulator itself) and front end (graphics and user input terminal). Writing a new front end from scratch is actually not that much work, and the OS X front end is due for a full rewrite anyway.
This would be an excellent opportunity to contribute that doesn't require any 68K or classic Mac knowledge.
- Aloha 8y agoI'd like to, but I'm missing Obj-C/Cocoa knowledge too. ;-) But I dropped a link with a friend of mine who is super into classic mac, and mac in general.
- jjuran 8y agoThe secret is to bang the rocks together. ;-) In the meantime, you could run the Linux framebuffer front end, which, strictly speaking, doesn't have Carbon dependencies. :-D
- Aloha 8y agoI dont have a machine that I can run Linux Framebuffer on, I'd be better of building it on my G4, to asking a friend to compile it for me, so I can run it under mojave
- jjuran 8y agoIn that case, 10.4 and 10.5 are options. There's also a front end that works in classic Mac OS, which a G4 is fast enough to run usably. It's not in the HOWTO yet, but I can add it.
