It supports several models (including the 128), with quite faithful emulation of the display and sound. .PP The emulator can load any of the formats supported by .IR libspectrum (3) \(em this includes Z80, SNA and SZX snapshots, and PZX, TAP and TZX virtual-tape files. Saving to SZX, Z80 and SNA snapshots and TZX and TAP tape files is supported. The SLT extension to the Z80 format is partly supported (enough for multi-load games); however, loading of the old DAT-file variant is not. .PP DSK, UDI, FDI, TD0, MGT, IMG, D40, D80, SAD, TRD, SCL and OPD disk images are supported when a disk interface is being emulated, including the integrated disk drives on +3, Pentagon or Scorpion machines as well as the +D, DISCiPLE, Opus Discovery, Beta\ 128 and Didaktik\ 80 interfaces. DCK cartridge images are supported when emulating a Timex\ 2068 variant. Interface\ 2 ROM cartridges are also supported. .PP Finally, there is also support for reading and writing the RZX input recording format. .PP See the .B "COMPRESSED FILES" section for details on reading files compressed with .IR bzip2 "(3)," .IR gzip "(3)" or .IR zip "(3)." .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH OPTIONS .\" dual short/long option listings here reflect the GNU approach, .\" as used in info files. It does mean using RS/RE, though, .\" so this is used for all options (for consistency). .\" .\" the options list is in alphabetical order by long option name (or .\" short option name if none). .\" .B \-\-accelerate\-loader .RS Specify whether Fuse should attempt to accelerate tape loaders by \(lqshort circuiting\(rq the loading loop. This will in general speed up loading, but may cause some loaders to fail. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-accelerate\-loader ' to disable). The same as the Media Options dialog's .I "Accelerate loaders" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-aspect\-hint .RS Specify whether the GTK+ and Xlib user interfaces should `hint' to the window manager about the preferred aspect ratio for the graphics window, thus preventing resizing to non-square sizes which lead to Fuse not displaying correctly. This option has been observed to cause problems with some window managers when using the GTK+ UI which can prevent the window from being resized or moved at all. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-aspect\-hint ' to disable). See also the .RB ` \-\-strict\-aspect\-hint ' option. .RE .PP .B \-\-autosave\-settings .RS Specify whether Fuse's current settings should be automatically saved on exit. The same as the General Options dialog's .I "Auto-save settings" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-auto\-load .RS Specify whether tape and disk files should be automatically loaded when they are opened using the .I "File, Open..." menu option. In the case of TRD/SCL disk images, inserts also a boot loader file when none is available. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-auto\-load ' to disable). Same as the Media Options dialog's .I "Auto-load media" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-beta128 .RS Emulate a Beta\ 128 interface. Same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "Beta\ 128 interface" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-beta128\-48boot .RS When a Beta\ 128 interface is used in 48K or TC2048 emulation the option additionally controls whether the machine boots directly into the TR-DOS system. Same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "Beta\ 128 auto-boot in 48K machines" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-betadisk .I file .RS Insert the specified file into the emulated Beta disk interface's drive\ A: and select Pentagon mode on startup. .RE .PP .B \-\-bw\-tv .RS Specify whether the display should simulate a colour or black and white television. This option is effective under the GTK+, Win32, Xlib and SDL user interfaces: the others will always simulate a colour TV. The same as the General Options dialog's .I "Black and white TV" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-cmos-z80 .RS This option specifies that Fuse should emulate a CMOS Z80, as opposed to an NMOS Z80. Same as the General Options dialog's .I "Z80 is CMOS" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-competition\-code .I code .RS Specify the code to be written to competition mode RZX files. The same as the RZX Options dialog's .I "Competition code" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-competition\-mode .RS Specify whether input recordings should be made in `competition mode'. The same as the RZX Options dialog's .I "Competition mode" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-compress\-rzx .RS Specify whether RZX files should be written out compressed. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-compress\-rzx ' to disable). Same as the RZX Options dialog's .I "Compress RZX data" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-confirm\-actions .RS Specify whether `dangerous' actions (those which could cause data loss, for example resetting the Spectrum) require confirmation before occurring. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-confirm\-actions ' to disable). This option is the same as the General Options dialog's .I "Confirm actions" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-covox .RS Emulate a Covox sound interface for Pentagon/Scorpion. Same as the General Peripherals Options dialog's .I "Covox" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-debugger\-command .I string .RS Specify a debugger command to be run before emulator startup. This can be used to set breakpoints or the like. Currently, this is the only method to input multi-line debugger commands. (See the .B "MONITOR/DEBUGGER" section for more information). .RE .PP .B \-\-detect\-loader .RS Specify whether Fuse should attempt to detect when the tape is being accessed and start and stop the virtual tape playing automatically. (Enabled by default, but you can use .RB ` \-\-no\-detect\-loader ' to disable). Same as the Media Options dialog's .I "Detect loaders" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-disciple .RS Emulate a DISCiPLE interface. Same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "DISCiPLE interface" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-discipledisk .I file .RS Insert the specified file into the emulated DISCiPLE's drive\ 1. .RE .PP .B \-\-didaktik80 .RS Emulate a Didaktik 80 (or Didaktik 40) disk interface. Same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "Didaktik 80 interface" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-didaktik80disk .I file .RS Insert the specified file into the emulated Didaktik\ 80 (or Didaktik\ 40)'s drive\ A. .RE .PP .B \-\-disk\-ask\-merge .RS Prompt the user to confirm whether Fuse should try to merge the `B' side of a disk image from a separate file when opening a new single-sided disk image. .RE .PP .B \-\-disk\-try\-merge .I mode .RS Select whether Fuse should try to merge a separate file for the `B' side of a disk image separate file when opening a new disk image. Most double sided disk images are dumped as two single sided disk images e.g. `Golden Axe \- Side\ A.dsk' and `Golden Axe \- Side\ B.dsk'. So, if we want to play Golden Axe, first we have to insert the first disk image and when the game asks to insert side\ B, we have to find and open the second disk image, instead of just `flip'-ing the disk inside the drive. If enabled, Fuse will try to open the second image too and create a double sided disk image (merging the two one sided disk images) and insert this merged virtual disk into the disk drive. The function detects whether the file is one side of a double-sided image if the filename matches a pattern like [Ss]ide[ _][abAB12][ _.] in the file name of a disk that is being opened. If found, Fuse will try to open the other side of the disk too substituting the appropriate characters in the filename e.g. 1\(->2, a\(->b, A\(->B. If successful then it will merge the two images and now we have a double sided disk in drive. This means that if we open `Golden Axe \- Side\ A.dsk', then Fuse will try to open `Golden Axe \- Side B.dsk' too. Now, we can just `flip' the disk if Golden Axe asks for `Side\ B'. The available options are .IR Never , .I "With single-sided drives" and .IR Always . .RE .PP .B \-\-divide .RS Emulate the DivIDE interface. The same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "DivIDE interface" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-divide\-masterfile .I file .br .B \-\-divide\-slavefile .I file .RS Specify an IDE image to be loaded into the DivIDE's emulated master and slave drives respectively. .RE .PP .B \-\-divide\-write\-protect .RS Specify that the emulated DivIDE's write protect jumper should be considered set. The same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "DivIDE write protect" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-divmmc .RS Emulate the DivMMC interface. The same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "DivMMC interface" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-divmmc\-file .I file .RS Specify an HDF image to be loaded into the DivMMC's emulated memory card. .RE .PP .B \-\-divmmc\-write\-protect .RS Specify that the emulated DivMMC's write protect jumper that protects EEPROM should be considered set. The same as the Disk Peripherals Options dialog's .I "DivMMC write protect" option. .RE .PP .B \-\-dock .I file .RS Insert the specified file into the emulated Timex\ 2068 variant dock; also select the TC2068 on startup if available. .RE .PP .B \-D .I mode .br .B \-\-doublescan\-mode .I mode .RS Specify whether to use doublescan modes in the FB UI. Available values for .I mode are 0, 1 and 2. 0 means `never doublescan' (use 640\(mu480 at either 72\ Hz or 60\ Hz), whereas 1 and 2 both mean `try to use doublescan' and will fall back on the 640\(mu480 modes. 1 selects 72\ Hz modes (the same size and shape as your typical 640\(mu480), and 2 selects 60\ Hz modes (overscan). .PP If your monitor displays a blank screen when using 1 or 2, press F10 then try a different option or say `\-\-fbmode 640'. .RE .PP .B \-\-drive\-plus3a\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-plus3b\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-beta128a\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-beta128b\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-beta128c\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-beta128d\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-plusd1\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-plusd2\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-didaktik80a\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-didaktik80b\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-disciple1\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-disciple2\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-opus1\-type .I type .br .B \-\-drive\-opus2\-type .I type .RS Specify a disk drive type to emulate with the associated interface.

The usual one is GTK+-based, but there are also SDL, Win32, Xlib, SVGAlib and framebuffer ones. .PP The important difference to note is that GTK+ and Win32 versions uses `native' dialog boxes etc. (behaving like a fairly normal GUI-based program) while the others use an alternative, Fuse-specific `widget UI'. This latter front-end is easily spotted by the way it uses the main Fuse window/screen for menus and dialogs, and uses the Spectrum's own font. .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "MENUS AND KEYS" Since many of the keys available are devoted to emulation of the Spectrum's keyboard, the primary way of controlling Fuse itself (rather than the emulated machine) is via the menus. There are also function key shortcuts for some menu options. .PP In the GTK+ and Win32 version, the menu bar is always visible at the top of the Fuse window. You can click on a menu name to pop it up. Alternatively, you can press .I F1 to display a pop-up version of the menu bar, which you can then navigate with the cursor keys or mouse. .PP In the widget UI pressing .I F1 is the only way to get the main menu; and unlike the GTK+ version, the emulator pauses while the menus are being navigated. The menus show which key to press for each menu option in brackets. Pressing .I Esc exits a menu, and pressing .I Enter exits the menu system entirely (as well as `confirming' any current dialog). .PP Here's what the menu options do, along with the function key mappings for those items which have them: .PP .\" function keys are listed first, by analogy with short options .\" being listed the same way. .\" .I F3 .br .I "File, Open..." .RS Open a Spectrum file. Snapshots will be loaded into memory; tape images will be inserted into the emulated tape deck, and if the .I "Auto-load media" option is set will being loading. Opening a disk image or a Timex dock image will cause the appropriate machine type (+3, Pentagon or TC2068) to be selected with the image inserted, and disks will automatically load if the .I "Auto-load media" option is set. See the .B "FILE SELECTION" section below for details on how to choose the file. Note that this behaviour is different from previous versions of Fuse, when this option would open only snapshots. .RE .PP .I F2 .br .I "File, Save Snapshot..." .RS Save a snapshot (machine state, memory contents, etc.) to file.

The MLT format is similar to the SCR format but additionally supports capturing images that use techniques to display more than two colours in each Spectrum attribute square. Fuse will only load the bitmap version of an image on a Sinclair machine but on a Timex clone it can show the full colour detail captured in the image by using the hi-colour mode. .RE .PP .I "File, Screenshot, Save Screen as MLT..." .RS Save a copy of whatever's currently displayed on the Spectrum's screen as an MLT file. You will be prompted for a filename to save the screenshot to. .RE .PP .I "File, Screenshot, Save Screen as PNG..." .RS Save the current screen as a PNG file. You will be prompted for a filename to save the screenshot to. .RE .PP .I "File, Scalable Vector Graphics, Start capture in line mode..." .RS Start trapping the video output functions present in ROM to copy the picture to SVG files, thus creating vectorized scalable picture; it is expected to be fully operational in BASIC only, but few machine code programs could work, if they use the ROM addresses to output text or graphics. The initial picture size is 256\(mu176, but it is increased everytime a `scroll' happens. On every CLS a new file will be created, with an increasing sequence number. CIRCLEs will be described as a sequence of lines, so the original `imprecisions' will be still visible. The text output will be fully understood and decoded: normal ASCII characters will be converted into COURIER scalable fonts, UDG graphics into dot matrix areas, GRAPHICS blocky characters into small squares. A slightly transparent output permits to show a bit of the overlapped text and graphics elements. Lower portion of the screen (normally bound to stream #0 and #1) won't be captured. .RE .PP .I "File, Scalable Vector Graphics, Start capture in dot mode..." .RS As above, but line capture is disabled. A line will be rendered as a sequence of dots. .RE .PP .I "File, Scalable Vector Graphics, Stop capture" .RS Stop the SVG capture function. .RE .PP .I "File, Movie, Record..." .RS Fuse can record movie (video and audio) into a file with special format which can be converted later to a common video file format with the .IR fmfconv (1) utility. You will be prompted for a filename to save video. Please see .B "MOVIE RECORDING" section. .RE .PP .I "File, Movie, Record from RZX..." .RS Start movie recording and RZX playback at the same time. You will be prompted for a filename to play from and a filename to save video. .RE .PP .I "File, Movie, Pause" .RS Pause movie recording which is currently in progress. .RE .PP .I "File, Movie, Continue" .RS Resume movie recording which has been previously paused. .RE .PP .I "File, Movie, Stop" .RS Stop movie recording which is currently in progress. .RE .PP .I "File, Load Binary Data..." .RS Load binary data from a file into the Spectrum's memory. After selecting the file to load data from, you can choose where to load the data and how much data to load. .RE .PP .I "File, Save Binary Data..." .RS Save an arbitrary chunk of the Spectrum's memory to a file. Select the file you wish to save to, followed by the location and length of data you wish to save. .RE .PP .I F10 .br .I "File, Exit" .RS Exit the emulator. A confirmation dialog will appear checking you actually want to do this. .RE .PP .I F4 .br .I "Options, General..." .RS Display the General Options dialog, letting you configure Fuse. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. .PP The options available are: .PP .I "Emulation speed" .RS Set how fast Fuse will attempt to emulate the Spectrum, as a percentage of the speed at which the real machine runs. If your machine isn't fast enough to keep up with the requested speed, Fuse will just run as fast as it can. Note that if the emulation speed is faster than 500%, no sound output will be produced. .RE .PP .I "Frame rate" .RS Specify the frame rate, the ratio of spectrum frame updates to real frame updates. This is useful if your machine is having trouble keeping up with the spectrum screen updates. .RE .PP .I "Issue\ 2 keyboard" .RS Early versions of the Spectrum used a different value for unused bits on the keyboard input ports, and a few games depended on the old value of these bits. Enabling this option switches to the old value, to let you run them. .RE .PP .I "Recreated ZX Spectrum" .RS Enable the use of a Recreated ZX Spectrum in `Layer A' (game) mode. This is a Bluetooth keyboard that can be paired to the device where Fuse is running. .RE .PP .I "Use shift with arrow keys" .RS Treat the keyboard arrow keys as shifted like the ZX Spectrum+ keyboard's arrow keys or as unshifted like a cursor joystick that maps to the 5, 6, 7 and 8 keys. .RE .PP .I "Allow writes to ROM" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will happily allow programs to overwrite what would normally be ROM. This probably isn't very useful in most circumstances, especially as the 48K\ ROM overwrites parts of itself. .RE .PP .I "Late timings" .RS If selected, Fuse will cause all screen-related timings (for example, when the screen is rendered and when memory contention occurs) to be one tstate later than \(lqnormal\(rq, an effect which is present on some real hardware. .RE .PP .I "Z80 is CMOS" .RS If selected, Fuse will emulate a CMOS Z80, as opposed to an NMOS Z80. The undocumented `OUT (C),0' instruction will be replaced with `OUT (C),255' and emulation of a minor timing bug in the NMOS Z80's `LD A,I' and `LD A,R' instructions will be disabled. .RE .PP .I "RS-232 handshake" .RS If you turn this option off, Fuse assumes the RS-232 line other end is live when you connect the communication channels. See also the .RB ` \-\-rs232\-rx "' and `" \-\-rs232\-tx ' options. .RE .PP .I "Black and white TV" .RS This option allows you to choose whether to simulate a colour or black and white television. This is effective only under the GTK+, Win32, Xlib and SDL user interfaces: the others will always simulate a colour TV. .RE .PP .I "PAL-TV use TV2x effect" .RS This option allows you to choose whether the PAL\ TV\ 2x and higher scalers also reproduce scanlines in the same way as the TV\ 2x, TV\ 3x and Timex\ TV scalers. .RE .PP .I "Show statusbar" .RS For the GTK+ and Win32 UI, enables the statusbar beneath the display. For the SDL UI, enables the status icons showing whether the disk and tape are being accessed. This option has no effect for the other user interfaces. .RE .PP .I "Snap joystick prompt" .RS If set, Fuse will prompt you which physical joystick or keyboard you want to connect to the joystick interface enabled in the snapshot unless it already matches your current configuration. .RE .PP .I "Confirm actions" .RS Specify whether `dangerous' actions (those which could cause data loss, for example resetting the Spectrum) require confirmation before occurring. .RE .PP .I "Auto-save settings" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will automatically write its currently selected options to its configuration file on exit (either in xml format if .I libxml2 was available when Fuse was compiled or plain text). If this option is off, you'll have to manually use .I "Options, Save" afterwards to ensure that this setting gets written to Fuse's configuration file. Note that if you turn this option on, loading a snapshot could enable peripherals that would be written permanently to the configuration file. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Media..." .RS Display the Media Options dialog, letting you configure Fuse's tape and Microdrive options. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. .PP .I "Auto-load media" .RS On many occasions when you open a tape or disk file, it's because it's got a program in you want to load and run. If this option is selected, this will automatically happen for you when you open one of these files using the .I "File, Open..." menu option \(em you must then use the .I Media menu to use tapes or disks for saving data to, or for loading data into an already running program. .RE .PP .I "Detect loaders" .RS If this option is enabled, Fuse will attempt to detect when a loading routine is in progress, and then automatically start the virtual tape to load the program in. This is done by using a heuristic to identify a loading routine, so is by no means infallible, but works in most cases. .RE .PP .I "Phantom typist mode" .RS Specify the keystroke sequence that the "phantom typist" should use when starting a program loading. Available options are .RS .PP .I Auto .PP .I Keyword .PP .I Keystroke .PP .I Menu .PP .I Plus 2A .PP .I Plus 3 .RE .PP The first four of these correspond to automatic detection based on machine model, keyword based entry, keystroke based entry, and selection from a 128K style menu. .I Plus 2A and .I Plus 3 also correspond to selection from a 128K style menu, but have special handling for games which need to be loaded with `LOAD ""CODE'. The most likely use for this option will be use .I Keystroke if you have changed the default 48K ROM for one with keystroke entry. .RE .PP .I "Fastloading" .RS If this option is enabled, then Fuse will run at the fastest possible speed when the virtual tape is playing, thus dramatically reducing the time it takes to load programs. You may wish to disable this option if you wish to stop the tape at a specific point. .RE .PP .I "Use tape traps" .RS Ordinarily, Fuse intercepts calls to the ROM tape-loading routine in order to load from tape files more quickly when possible. But this can (rarely) interfere with TZX loading; disabling this option avoids the problem at the cost of slower (i.e. always real-time) tape-loading. When tape-loading traps are disabled, you need to start tape playback manually, by pressing .I F8 or choosing the .I "Media, Tape, Play" menu item. Fuse also uses tape traps to intercept the tape-saving routine in the ROM to save tape files quickly, tapes can also be saved using the .I "Media, Tape, Record Start" menu item. .RE .PP .I "Accelerate loaders" .RS If this option is enabled, then Fuse will attempt to accelerate tape loaders by \(lqshort circuiting\(rq the loading loop. This will in general speed up loading, but may cause some loaders to fail. .RE .PP .I "Use .slt traps" .RS The multi-load aspect of SLT files requires a trap instruction to be supported. This instruction is not generally used except for this trap, but since it's not inconceivable that a program could be wanting to use the real instruction instead, you can choose whether to support the trap or not. .RE .PP .I "MDR cartridge len" .RS This option controls the number of blocks in a new Microdrive cartridge. If the value smaller than 10 or greater than 254 Fuse assumes 10 or 254. Average real capacity is around 180 blocks (90 Kb). .RE .PP .I "Random length MDR cartridge" .RS If this option is enabled, Fuse will use a random Microdrive cartridge length (around 180 blocks) instead of the length specified in the .I "MDR cartridge len" option. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Sound..." .RS Display the Sound Options dialog, letting you configure Fuse's sound output. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. .PP .I "Sound enabled" .RS Specify whether sound output should be enabled at all. When this option is disabled, Fuse will not make any sound. .RE .PP .I "Loading sound" .RS Normally, Fuse emulates tape-loading noise when loading from PZXs, TAPs or TZXs in real-time, albeit at a deliberately lower volume than on a real Spectrum. You can disable this option to eliminate the loading noise entirely. .RE .PP .I "AY stereo separation" .RS By default, the sound output is mono, since this is all you got from an unmodified Spectrum. But enabling this option gives you so-called ACB stereo (for sound from the 128 and other clone's AY-3-8912 sound chip). .RE .PP .I "Force 8-bit" .RS Force the use of 8-bit sound even if 16-bit (the default) is available. Note that (when the option is enabled) if 8-bit sound isn't available then there will be no sound at all, so it's best not to use this option unless you have a specific need for it. .RE .PP .I "Speaker type" .RS This option allows the emulation of the sound output system to be modified. Different choices of speaker limit the bass and treble response that can be produced from the machine. Choose between a \(lqTV\(rq type speaker and a small \(lqBeeper\(rq type speaker that significantly limits bass and treble response. Choose \(lqUnfiltered\(rq to get unmodified (but less accurate) sound output. .RE .PP .I "AY volume" .RS Sets the relative volume of the AY-3-8912 chip from a range of 0\(en100%. .RE .PP .I "Beeper volume" .RS Sets the relative volume of the beeper from a range of 0\(en100%. .RE .PP .I "Covox volume" .RS Sets the relative volume of the Covox from a range of 0\(en100%. .RE .PP .I "SpecDrum volume" .RS Sets the relative volume of the SpecDrum from a range of 0\(en100%. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Peripherals, General..." .RS Display the General Peripherals Options dialog, letting you configure the peripherals which Fuse will consider to be attached to the emulated machine. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. Also note that any changes that enable and disable peripherals may result in a hard reset of the emulated machine. .PP .I "Kempston joystick" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Kempston joystick interface (probably the most widely supported type on the Spectrum). Note that this option is basically equivalent to plugging the interface itself into a Spectrum, not to connecting a joystick; this affects how the Spectrum responds to a read of input port\ 31. To use a Kempston joystick in a game, this option must be enabled, and you must also select a Kempston joystick the .I "Options, Joysticks" menu. .RE .PP .I "Kempston mouse" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Kempston mouse interface. .PP If you're using Fuse full-screen, your mouse is automatically used as if attached to the Kempston interface. Otherwise, you'll need to click on the Spectrum display in order to tell Fuse to grab the pointer (and make it invisible); to tell Fuse to release it, click the middle button (or wheel) or press Escape. .PP With the framebuffer UI, Fuse prefers to use GPM; if this is not available, it will fall back to built-in PS/2 mouse support. In this mode, it tries \fI/dev/input/mice\fR, \fI/dev/mouse\fR then \fI/dev/psaux\fR, stopping when it successfully opens one. The first of these is preferred since (at least on Linux, with a 2.6-series kernel) any type of mouse can be used and any connected mouse may be used. .RE .PP .I "Swap mouse buttons" .RS If this option is enabled, the left and right mouse buttons will be swapped when emulating a Kempston mouse. .RE .PP .I "Fuller Box" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Fuller Box AY sound and joystick interface. This emulation is only available for the 16k, 48k and TC2048 machines. .RE .PP .I "Melodik" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Melodik AY sound interface. These interfaces and many similar ones were produced to make the 48K\ Spectrum compatible with the same AY music as the 128K\ Spectrum. This emulation is only available for the 16k, 48k and TC2048 machines. .RE .PP .I "Interface\ 1" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the simple Sinclair Interface\ 1, and allow Microdrive cartridges to be connected and disconnected via the .I "Media, Interface\ 1, Microdrive" menus. It also enables support for the Interface\ 1 RS-232 interface. .RE .PP .I "Interface\ 2" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a cartridge port as found on the Interface\ 2. Cartridges can then be inserted and removed via the .I "Media, Cartridge, Interface\ 2" menu. Note that the Pentagon, Scorpion, Interface\ 2, ZXATASP and ZXCF all use the same hardware mechanism for accessing some of their extended features, so only one of these should be selected at once or unpredictable behaviour will occur. .RE .PP .I "Multiface One" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Romantic Robot Multiface\ One. Available for 16K, 48K and Timex TC2048 machines. .RE .PP .I "Multiface\ 128" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Romantic Robot Multiface\ 128. Available for 16K, 48K, Timex TC2048, 128K, +2 and SE machines. .RE .PP .I "Multiface\ 3" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Romantic Robot Multiface\ 3. Available for +2A, +3 and +3e machines. .RE .PP .I "Stealth Multiface One" .RS This option controls the `invisible' or `stealth' mode of Multiface One, as the physical switch on the side of the interface. .RE .PP .I "Emulate printers" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a printer. See the .B "PRINTER EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZX Printer" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZX Printer. See the .B "PRINTER EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "SpeccyBoot interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a SpeccyBoot interface which allows booting a ZX\ Spectrum over an Ethernet network. See the SpeccyBoot web page at .I http://patrikpersson.github.io/speccyboot/ for more details. .RE .PP .I "SpecDrum interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Cheetah SpecDrum sound interface. See the World of Spectrum Infoseek web page at .I http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=1000062 for manuals, software and more. This emulation is only available for the 48k, 128k and TC2048 machines. .RE .PP .I "Spectranet" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Spectranet interface, which provides an Ethernet interface for the Spectrum. See the .B "SPECTRANET EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "Spectranet disable" .RS This option controls the state of the Spectranet automatic page-in jumper (J2). See the .B "SPECTRANET EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "\(mcSource" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Currah \(mcSource interface. See the World of Spectrum Infoseek web page at .I http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=1000080 for the manual. .RE .PP .I "Covox interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate a Covox digital sound interface. This emulation is only available for the Pentagon, Pentagon 512k, Pentagon 1024k and Scorpion machines. The Pentagon variants use port 0xfb and the Scorpion version uses port 0xdd. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Peripherals, Disk..." .RS Display the Disk Peripherals Options dialog, letting you configure the disk interface peripherals which Fuse will consider to be attached to the emulated machine. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. Also note that any changes that enable and disable peripherals may result in a hard reset of the emulated machine. .PP .I "Simple 8-bit IDE" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the simple 8-bit IDE interface as used by the Spectrum\ +3e, and allow hard disks to be connected and disconnected via the .I "Media, IDE, Simple 8-bit" menu. .RE .PP .I "ZXATASP interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZXATASP interface, which provides both additional RAM and an IDE interface. See the .B "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZXATASP upload" .RS This option controls the state of the ZXATASP upload jumper. See the .B "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZXATASP write protect" .RS This option controls the state of the ZXATASP write protect jumper. See the .B "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZXCF interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZXCF interface, which provides both additional RAM and a CompactFlash interface. See the .B "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZXCF upload" .RS This option controls the state of the ZXCF upload jumper. See the .B "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "ZXMMC interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the ZXMMC interface. Available for +2A, +3 and +3e machines. .RE .PP .I "DivIDE interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the DivIDE interface. See the .B "DIVIDE" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "DivIDE write protect" .RS This option controls the state of the DivIDE write protection jumper. See the .B "DIVIDE" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "DivMMC interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the DivMMC interface. See the .B "DIVMMC" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "DivMMC write protect" .RS This option controls the state of the DivMMC write protection jumper that prevents flashing the EEPROM chip. See the .B "DIVMMC" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "+D interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the +D interface. See the .B "+D EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "Didaktik 80 interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Didaktik\ 80 (or Didaktik\ 40) interface. See the .B "DIDAKTIK\ 80 EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "DISCiPLE interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the DISCiPLE interface. See the .B "DISCIPLE EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .PP .I "Beta\ 128 interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Beta\ 128 interface. See the .B "BETA\ 128 EMULATION" section for more details. Beta\ 128 emulation is enabled for the Pentagon and Scorpion machines regardless of this option. .RE .PP .I "Beta\ 128 auto-boot in 48K\ machines" .RS If this option is selected, then when a Beta\ 128 interface is used in 48K or TC2048 emulation, the machine will boot directly into the TR-DOS system. .RE .PP .I "Opus Discovery interface" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will emulate the Opus Discovery interface. See the .B "OPUS DISCOVERY EMULATION" section for more details. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, RZX..." .RS Display the RZX Options dialog, letting you configure how Fuse's deals with RZX input recordings. (With the widget UI, the keys shown in brackets toggle the options, .I Enter confirms any changes, and .I Esc aborts). Note that any changed settings only apply to the currently-running Fuse. .PP .I "Create autosaves" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will add a snapshot into the recording stream every 5\ seconds while creating an RZX file, thus enabling the rollback facilities to be used without having to explicitly add snapshots into the stream. Older snapshots will be pruned from the stream to keep the file size and number of snapshots down: each snapshot up to 15\ seconds will be kept, then one snapshot every 15\ seconds until one minute, then one snapshot every minute until 5\ minutes, and then one snapshot every 5\ minutes. Note that this \(lqpruning\(rq applies only to automatically inserted snapshots: snapshots manually inserted into the stream will never be pruned. .RE .PP .I "Compress RZX data" .RS If this option is selected, and .I zlib was available when Fuse was compiled, any RZX files written by Fuse will be compressed. This is generally a good thing as it makes the files significantly smaller, and you probably want to turn it off only if you're debugging the RZX files or there's some other program which doesn't support compressed RZX files. .RE .PP .I "Competition mode" .RS Any input recordings which are started when this option is selected will be made in `competition mode'. In essence, this means that Fuse will act just like a real Spectrum would: you can't load snapshots, pause the emulation in any way, change the speed or anything that you couldn't do on the real machine. If any of these things are attempted, or if the emulated Fuse is running more than 5% faster or slower than normal Spectrum speed, then the recording will immediately be stopped. .PP If .I libgcrypt was available when Fuse was compiled, then recordings made with competition mode active will be digitally signed, in theory to `certify' that it was made with the above restrictions in place. \fBHowever, this procedure is not secure (and cannot be made so), so the presence of any signature on an RZX file should not be taken as providing proof that it was made with competition mode active.\fR This feature is included in Fuse solely as it was one of the requirements for Fuse to be used in an on-line tournament. .RE .PP .I "Competition code" .RS The numeric code entered here will be written into any RZX files made in competition mode. This is another feature for on-line tournaments which can be used to `prove' that the recording was made after a specific code was released. If you're not playing in such a tournament, you can safely ignore this option. .RE .PP .I "Always embed snapshot" .RS Specify whether a snapshot should be embedded in an RZX file when recording is started from an existing snapshot. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Movie..." .RS Display the Movie Options dialog, letting you configure how Fuse's deals with movie recordings. .PP .I "Movie compression" .RS This option set the compression level to None, Lossless or High. (See the .B "MOVIE RECORDING" section for more information). .RE .PP .I "Stop recording after RZX ends" .RS If this option is selected, Fuse will stop any movie recording after a RZX playback is finished. .RE .RE .PP .I "Options, Joysticks" .RS Fuse can emulate many of the common types of joystick which were available for the Spectrum. The input for these emulated joysticks can be taken from real joysticks attached to the emulating machine (configured via the .I "Options, Joysticks, Joystick\ 1..." and .I "Options, Joysticks, Joystick\ 2..." options), or from the .IR q , .IR a , .IR o , .IR p , and .I Space keys on the emulating machines keyboard, configured via the .I "Options, Joysticks, Keyboard..." option. Note that when using the keyboard to emulate a joystick, the .IR q , .IR a , .IR o , .IR p , and .I Space keys will not have their normal effect (to avoid problems with games which do things like use .I p for pause when using a joystick). .PP Each of the joysticks (including the `fake' keyboard joystick) can be configured to emulate any one of the following joystick types: .RS .PP .I None .RS No joystick: any input will simply be ignored. .RE .PP .I Cursor .RS A cursor joystick, equivalent to pressing .IR 5 " (left)," .IR 6 " (down)," .IR 7 " (up)," .IR 8 " (right)," and .IR 0 " (fire)." .RE .PP .I Kempston .RS A Kempston joystick, read from input port\ 31. Note that the .I "Options, Peripherals, General, Kempston interface" option must also be set for the input to be recognised. .RE .PP .I "Sinclair\ 1" .br .I "Sinclair\ 2" .RS The `left' and `right' Sinclair joysticks, equivalent to pressing .IR 1 " (left)," .IR 2 " (right)," .IR 3 " (down)," .IR 4 " (up)," and .IR 5 " (fire)," or .IR 6 " (left)," .IR 7 " (right)," .IR 8 " (down)," .IR 9 " (up)," and .IR 0 " (fire)" respectively. .RE .PP .I "Timex 1" .br .I "Timex\ 2" .RS The `left' and `right' joysticks as attached to the Timex\ 2068 variant's built-in joystick interface. .RE .RE .PP For the real joysticks, it is also possible to configure what effect each button on the joystick will have: this can be .IR "Joystick Fire" , equivalent to pressing the emulated joystick's fire button, .IR "Nothing" , meaning to have no effect, or any Spectrum key, meaning that pressing that button will be equivalent to pressing that Spectrum key. .RE .PP .I "Options, Select ROMs, Machine ROMs" .RS An individual dialog is available for each Spectrum variant emulated by Fuse which allows selection of the ROM(s) used by that machine. Simply select the ROM you wish to use, and then reset the Spectrum for the change to take effect. .RE .PP .I "Options, Select ROMs, Peripheral ROMs" .RS The same as the Machine ROMs menu, but an individual dialog is available for peripherals that need a ROM. Simply select the ROM you wish to use, and then reset the Spectrum for the change to take effect. .RE .PP .I "Options, Filter..." .RS Select the graphics filter currently in use. See the .B "GRAPHICS FILTERS" section for more details. .RE .PP .I F11 .br .I "Options, Full Screen" .RS Switch Fuse between full screen and windowed mode. This menu is only available under the SDL UI. .RE .PP .I "Options, Disk Options..." .RS When emulating disk drives, Fuse allows the specification of the physical drive units attached to the emulated interface. Each drive can be set to be one of the following types: .RS .PP .I Disabled .PP .I Single\-sided 40 track .PP .I Double\-sided 40 track .PP .I Single\-sided 80 track .PP .I Double\-sided 80 track .RE .PP The .I Disabled option is not supported for Drive 1 or Drive A of any interface. .PP The available options that can be set are: .PP .I "+3 Drive A" .RS Defaults to a single-sided 40 track drive. .RE .PP .I "+3 Drive B" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "+3 Detect Speedlock" .RS Specify whether the +3 drives try to detect Speedlock protected disks, and emulate `weak' sectors. If the disk image file (EDSK or UDI) contains weak sector data, than Speedlock detection is automatically omitted. See also the .B "WEAK DISK DATA" section. .RE .PP .I "Beta 128 Drive A" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Beta 128 Drive B" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Beta 128 Drive C" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Beta 128 Drive D" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "+D Drive 1" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "+D Drive 2" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Didaktik 80 Drive A" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Didaktik 80 Drive B" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "DISCiPLE Drive 1" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "DISCiPLE Drive 2" .RS Defaults to a double-sided 80 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Opus Drive 1" .RS Defaults to a single-sided 40 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Opus Drive 2" .RS Defaults to a single-sided 40 track drive. .RE .PP .I "Try merge 'B' side of disks" .RS This option prompts the user to confirm whether Fuse should try to merge the `B' side of a disk image from a separate file when opening a new single-sided disk image. .RE .PP .I "Confirm merge disk sides" .RS Select whether Fuse should try to merge a separate file for the `B' side of a disk image separate file when opening a new disk image. Most double sided disk images are dumped as two single sided disk images e.g. `Golden Axe \- Side\ A.dsk' and `Golden Axe \- Side\ B.dsk'. So, if we want to play Golden Axe, first we have to insert the first disk image and when the game asks to insert side\ B, we have to find and open the second disk image, instead of just `flip'-ing the disk inside the drive. If enabled, Fuse will try to open the second image too and create a double sided disk image (merging the two one sided disk images) and insert this merged virtual disk into the disk drive. The function detects whether the file is one side of a double-sided image if the filename matches a pattern like [Ss]ide[ _][abAB12][ _.] in the file name of a disk that is being opened. If found, Fuse will try to open the other side of the disk too substituting the appropriate characters in the filename e.g. 1\(->2, a\(->b, A\(->B. If successful then it will merge the two images and now we have a double sided disk in drive. This means that if we open `Golden Axe \- Side\ A.dsk', then Fuse will try to open `Golden Axe \- Side B.dsk' too. Now, we can just `flip' the disk if Golden Axe asks for `Side\ B'. The available options are .IR Never , .I "With single-sided drives" and .IR Always . .RE .PP .I "Options, Save" .RS This will cause Fuse's current options to be written to .I .fuserc in your home directory (Unix-like systems), or .I fuse.cfg in your %USERPROFILE% folder (Windows), from which they will be picked up again when Fuse is restarted. The best way to update this file is by using this option, but it's a simple XML file if .I libxml2 was available when Fuse was compiled (otherwise, plain text), and shouldn't be too hard to edit by hand if you really want to. .RE .PP .I Pause .br .I "Machine, Pause" .RS Pause or unpause emulation.

Due to a typo in the standard 48K ROM, this will cause a reset, but modified ROMs are available which make use of this feature. When the +D (or DISCiPLE) is emulated, this is used to access the +D (or DISCiPLE)'s screenshot and snapshot features (see the .B "+D EMULATION" and .B "DISCIPLE EMULATION" sections below). For the DISCiPLE, Caps Shift must be held down whilst pressing the NMI button. For some UIs, this may be tricky, or even impossible to do. Note that GDOS on the DISCiPLE contains a bug which causes corruption of saved snapshots, and a failure to return from the NMI menu correctly. This bug is not present in G+DOS on the +D. .RE .PP .I "Machine, Multiface Red Button" .RS Presses the Multiface One/128/3 red button to active the interface. .RE .PP .I "Machine, Didaktik SNAP" .RS Presses the Didaktik 80 (or Didaktik 40)'s `SNAP' button. .RE .PP .I F7 .br .I "Media, Tape, Open..." .RS Choose a PZX, TAP or TZX virtual-tape file to load from. See the .B "FILE SELECTION" section below for details on how to choose the file. If .I "Auto-load media" is set in the Media Options dialog (as it is by default), you may use the .I "File, Open..." menu option instead, and the tape will begin loading automatically. Otherwise, you have to start the load in the emulated machine (with LOAD "" or the 128's Tape Loader option, though you may need to reset first). .PP To .I guarantee that TZX files will load properly, you should select the file, make sure tape-loading traps are disabled in the Media Options dialog, then press .I F8 (or do .IR "Media, Tape, Play" ). That said, most TZXs will work with tape-loading traps enabled (often quickly loading partway, then loading the rest real-time), so you might want to try it that way first. .RE .PP .I F8 .br .I "Media, Tape, Play" .RS Start playing the PZX, TAP or TZX file, if required. (Choosing the option (or pressing .IR F8 ) again pauses playback, and a further press resumes). To explain \(em if tape-loading traps have been disabled (in the Media Options dialog), starting the loading process in the emulated machine isn't enough. You also have to `press play', so to speak :\-), and this is how you do that. You may also need to `press play' like this in certain other circumstances, e.g. TZXs containing multi-load games may have a stop-the-tape request (which Fuse obeys). .RE .PP .I "Media, Tape, Browse" .RS Browse through the current tape. A brief display of each of the data blocks on the current tape will appear, from which you can select which block Fuse will play next. With the GTK+ UI, emulation will continue while the browser is displayed; double-clicking on a block will select it. In the other UIs, emulation is paused and you can use the cursor keys and press .I Enter to select it. If you decide you don't want to change block, just press .IR Escape . .RE .PP .I "Media, Tape, Rewind" .RS Rewind the current virtual tape, so it can be read again from the beginning. .RE .PP .I "Media, Tape, Clear" .RS Clear the current virtual tape. This is particularly useful when you want a `clean slate' to add newly-saved files to, before doing .I "Media, Tape, Write..." (or .IR F6 ). .RE .PP .I F6 .br .I "Media, Tape, Write..." .RS Write the current virtual-tape contents to a TZX file. You will be prompted for a filename. The virtual-tape contents are the contents of the previously-loaded tape (if any has been loaded since you last did a .IR "Media, Tape, Clear" ), followed by anything you've saved from the emulated machine since. These newly-saved files are .I not written to any tape file until you choose this option! .RE .PP .I "Media, Tape, Record Start" .RS Starts directly recording the output from the emulated Spectrum to the current virtual-tape. This is useful when you want to record using a non-standard ROM or from a custom save routine. Most tape operations are disabled during recording. Stop recording with the .I "Media, Tape, Write..." menu option. .RE .PP .I "Media, Tape, Record Stop" .RS Stops the direct recording and places the new recording into the virtual-tape. .RE .PP .I "Media, Interface\ 1" .RS Virtual Microdrive images are accessible only when the Interface\ 1 is active from the .I "Options, Peripherals, General..." dialog.

For the window-based ones (GTK+, Win32 and Xlib), you can resize the window by, well, resizing it. :\-) Exactly how this works depends on your window manager; you may have to make the window over twice the width and height of the original size before it actually scales up. Fuse attempts to keep the window `square', but with some window managers this can mean the window will never resize at all. If you experience this problem, the .RB ` \-\-no\-aspect\-hint ' option may help. .PP If you're using the SDL UI under X11 or GTK+, the window will automatically resize to be the correct size for the graphics filter selected. .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "GRAPHICS FILTERS" Fuse has the ability to apply essentially arbitrary filters between building its image of the Spectrum's screen, and displaying it on the emulating machine's monitor. These filters can be used to do various forms of smoothing, emulation of TV scanlines and various other possibilities. Support for graphics filters varies between the different user interfaces, but there are two general classes: the GTK+, Win32, Xlib, SVGAlib and SDL user interfaces (and the saving of .png screenshots) support `interpolating' filters which use a palette larger than the Spectrum's 16\ colours, while the framebuffer user interface currently does not support filters at all. .PP A further complication arises due to the fact that the Timex machines have their high-resolution video mode with twice the horizontal resolution. To deal with this, Fuse treats these machines as having a `normal' display size which is twice the size of a normal Spectrum's screen, leading to a different set of filters being available for these machines. Note that any of the double or triple-sizing filters are available for Timex machines only when using the SDL, Win32 or GTK+ user interfaces. .PP The available filters, along with their short name used to select them from the command line, are: .PP .IR "Timex half (smoothed) " ( half ) .br .IR "Timex half (skipping) " ( halfskip ) .RS Two Timex-machine specific filters which scale the screen down to half normal (Timex) size; that is, the same size as a normal Spectrum screen. The difference between these two filters is in how they handle the high-resolution mode: the `smoothed' version is an interpolating filter which averages pairs of adjacent pixels, while the `skipping' version is a non-interpolating filter which simply drops every other pixel. .RE .PP .IR "Normal " ( normal ) .RS The simplest filter: just display one pixel for every pixel on the Spectrum's screen. .RE .PP .IR "Double size " ( 2x ) .RS Scale the displayed screen up to double size. .RE .PP .IR "Triple size " ( 3x ) .RS Scale the displayed screen up to triple size. Available only with the GTK+, Win32, Xlib and SDL user interfaces or when saving screenshots of non-Timex machines. .RE .PP .IR "2xSaI " ( 2xsai ) .br .IR "Super 2xSaI " ( super2xsai ) .br .IR "SuperEagle " ( supereagle ) .RS Three interpolating filters which apply successively more smoothing. All three double the size of the displayed screen. .RE .PP .IR "AdvMAME2x " ( advmame2x ) .RS A double-sizing, non-interpolating filter which attempts to smooth diagonal lines. .RE .PP .IR "AdvMAME3x " ( advmame3x ) .RS Very similar to .IR AdvMAME2x , except that it triples the size of the displayed screen. Available only with the GTK+, Win32, Xlib and SDL user interfaces or when saving screenshots of non-Timex machines. .RE .PP .IR "TV\ 2x " ( tv2x ) .br .IR "TV\ 3x " ( tv3x ) .br .IR "Timex\ TV " ( timextv ) .RS Three filters which attempt to emulate the effect of television scanlines. The first is a double-sizing filter for non-Timex machines, the second is a similar triple-sizing filter, while the last is a single-sizing filter for Timex machines (note that this means TV\ 2X and Timex\ TV produce the same size output). .RE .PP .IR "PAL\ TV " ( paltv ) .br .IR "PAL\ TV\ 2x " ( paltv2x ) .br .IR "PAL\ TV\ 3x " ( paltv3x ) .RS Three filters which attempt to emulate the effect of the PAL TV system which layers a lower-resolution colour image over the top of a higher-resolution black-and-white image. The filters can also optionally add scanlines like the other TV series scalers. .RE .PP .IR "Dot matrix " ( dotmatrix ) .RS A double-sizing filter which emulates the effect of a dot-matrix display. .RE .PP .IR "Timex\ 1.5x " ( timex15x ) .RS An interpolating Timex-specific filter which scales the Timex screen up to 1.5\(mu its usual size (which is therefore 3\(mu the size of a `normal' Spectrum screen). Available only for the GTK+, Win32 and SDL user interfaces or when saving screenshots. .RE .PP .IR "HQ\ 2x " ( hq2x ) .br .IR "HQ\ 3x " ( hq3x ) .RS Two filters which do high quality (but slow) antialiasing.

Different printers are made available for the different models: .PP .TP .IR 16 ", " 48 ", " TC2048 ", " TC2068 ", " TS2068 ZX\ Printer .TP .IR 128 / +2 / Pentagon Serial printer (text-only) .TP .IR +2A ", " +3 Parallel printer (text-only) .PP If Opus Discovery, +D or DISCiPLE emulation is in use and printer emulation is enabled, text-only emulation of the disk interface's parallel printer interface is provided. .PP Any printout is appended to one (or both) of two files, depending on the printer \(em these default to .I printout.txt for text output, and .I printout.pbm for graphics (PBM images are supported by most image viewers and converters). These names can be changed with the .B \-\-textfile and .B \-\-graphicsfile options from the command line or configuration file. While the ZX\ Printer can .I only output graphically, simulated text output is generated at the same time using a crude sort of OCR based on the current character set (a bit like using SCREEN$). There is currently no support for graphics when using the serial/parallel output, though any escape codes used will be `printed' faithfully. (!) .PP By the way, it's not a good idea to modify the .I printout.pbm file outside of Fuse if you want to continue appending to it. The header needs to have a certain layout for Fuse to be able to continue appending to it correctly, and the file will be overwritten if it can't be appended to. .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "ZXATASP AND ZXCF" The ZXATASP and ZXCF interfaces are two peripherals designed by Sami Vehmaa which significantly extend the capabilities of the Spectrum. More details on both are available from Sami's homepage, .IR "http://user.tninet.se/~vjz762w/" , but a brief overview is given here. .PP The real ZXATASP comes with either 128K or 512K of RAM and the ability to connect an IDE hard disks and a CompactFlash card, while the ZXCF comes with 128K, 512K or 1024K of RAM and the ability to connect a CompactFlash card. From an emulation point of view, the two interfaces are actually very similar as a CompactFlash card is logically just an IDE hard disk. Currently, Fuse's emulation is fixed at having 512K of RAM in the ZXATASP and 1024K in the ZXCF. .PP To activate the ZXATASP, simply select the .I "ZXATASP interface" option from the .I "Options, Peripherals, Disk..." dialog. The state of the upload and write protect jumpers is then controlled by the .I "ZXATASP upload" and .I "ZXATASP write protect" options. Similarly, the ZXCF is controlled by the .I "ZXCF interface" and .I "ZXCF upload" options (the ZXCF write protect is software controlled). .PP If you're using either the ZXATASP or ZXCF, you almost certainly want to investigate ResiDOS, the operating system designed for use with the ZXATASP and ZXCF. ResiDOS provides facilities for using the extra RAM, accessing the mass storage devices and a task manager allowing virtually instant switching between programs on the Spectrum. See .I "http://www.worldofspectrum.org/residos/" for more details. .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "DIVIDE" The DivIDE is another IDE interface for the Spectrum, of which full details can be found at .IR "http://web.archive.org/web/20150302052256/http://baze.au.com/divide/" . The interface can be activated via the .I "DivIDE interface" option from the .I "Options, Peripherals, Disk..." dialog, and the state of its write protect jumper controlled via the .IR "DivIDE write protect option" . If you're going to be using the DivIDE, you'll probably want one of the firmwares available from the DivIDE homepage. .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "DIVMMC" The DivMMC is a MMC interface for the Spectrum. Originally designed by Alessandro Dorigatti for the V6Z80P+ FPGA board as the fusion of DivIDE and ZXMMC+ interfaces, later assembled as an interface for real spectrums by Mario Prato. Currently there are variants with different RAM size, one/two memory cards slots, optional kempston jostick, etc. .PP The interface can be activated via the .I "DivMMC interface" option from the .I "Options, Peripherals, Disk..." dialog, and the state of its EEPROM write protect jumper controlled via the .IR "DivMMC write protect option" . If you're going to be using the DivMMC, you'll need to load the ESXDOS firmware at .IR "http://www.esxdos.org/ or use the ZX Spectrum +3e ROMs by Garry Lancaster. .PP You'll also need a HDF image to store the contents of the memory card. There are several tools to create and manipulate this file format, e.g., hdfmonkey at .IR "https://github.com/gasman/hdfmonkey" . .\" .\"------------------------------------------------------------------ .\" .SH "SPECTRANET EMULATION" The Spectranet is an Ethernet network interface for the ZX\ Spectrum by Dylan Thomas. The interface can be activated via the .I Spectranet option on the Peripherals preferences dialog, and the state of its automatic page-in (disable) jumper controlled via the .I "Spectranet disable" option. If you're going to be using the Spectranet, you'll probably want one of the firmwares available from the Spectranet homepage .RI ( http://spectrum.alioth.net/doc/index.php ) which is also where you can find more information on using the interface. .PP Installing the Spectranet firmware on Fuse is slightly more complicated than on a real machine, mostly because Fuse's emulation doesn't support DHCP. These instructions are correct as of 2012-01-26 \(em if you're using a later firmware than this, things may have changed slightly. .PP The first thing you will need to do is to obtain a copy of the Spectranet installer as a .tap file (or similar). The installer is also available at the Spectranet site above. Once you have a copy of the installer, start Fuse and tick the .I "Spectranet" option from the .I "Options, Peripherals, General..." dialog, and the state of its write protect jumper controlled via the .I "Spectranet disable" option. Once that's done, open the installer file (use the .I "Media, Tape, Open..." command rather than .I "File, Open..." to prevent autoloading) and enter the following commands from BASIC: .PP CLEAR 26999 .br LOAD "" CODE .br RANDOMIZE USR 27000 .PP The screen should turn blue and you'll see around 20 lines of message appearing as the firmware is installed, starting with \(lqErasing sector 0\(rq and finishing with \(lqRestoring page B\(rq, and you'll get the familiar 0\ OK,\ 0:\ 1 at the bottom of the screen. .PP Now untick the .I "Spectranet disable" option from the .I "Options, Peripherals, General..." dialog and reset the Spectrum. You should see a very brief blue status screen, before the regular copyright screen appears with some Spectranet information at the top \(em there should be four status lines, starting with \(lqAlioth Spectranet\(rq and ending with the Spectranet's IP address (which will be 255.255.255.255 at this stage). .PP Now trigger an NMI (the Machine / NMI menu option) and you should get a white on blue Spectranet NMI menu with five options. .PP Select [A] Configure network settings \(em this should lead you to another menu, which will scroll of the top of the screen; don't worry about this for now. .PP You'll now need to set various options: .PP [A] Enable/disable DHCP \(em select N .br [B] Change IP address \(em enter the IP address of the machine you are running Fuse on. .br [C] Change netmask \(em enter the appropriate netmask for the IP address you selected above. If that doesn't mean anything to you, try 255.255.255.0 .br [D] Change default gateway \(em enter the appropriate gateway address. If you don't know any better, enter the IP address of your router. .br [E] Change primary DNS \(em enter the address of your DNS server. If you don't know any better, use Google's public DNS server, 8.8.8.8. .PP There is no need to change options [F] or [G], but do select: .PP [H] Change hostname \(em enter a hostname for the Spectranet-enabled machine. It doesn't really matter what you enter here \(em it's mostly useful just to replace the junk default name so you can see what you've entered for the other settings. .PP Your screen should now look something like this: .PP .TS l s l l. Current configuration = Use DHCP : No IP address : 192.168.000.002 Netmask : 255.255.255.000 Default gateway : 192.168.000.001 Primary DNS : 192.168.000.001 Secondary DNS : 255.255.255.255 Hardware address : FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF Hostname : fuse .T& l s.
