FILES¶
- virtualjaguar.log
- Virtualjaguar log file. Only written if the log option (-l or --log) is
given. If the file cannot be opened, the log it sent to standard output
instead. The log file is overwritten on startup. Note that the file is
written to the current directory.
- ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/eeproms/ (typically
~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/eeproms/)
- Some Atari Jaguar cartridges feature a small writable EEPROM, used for
saving game state and score lists. If this directory exists, virtualjaguar
will emulate the EEPROM by saving the state in file in this
directory.
- ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/software/ (typically
~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/)
- The virtualjaguar GUI for loading software scans this directory, and shows
the loadable files, along with information about the program, and a label
image if one is included in a zip archive of the software.
