CPCEMU v1.4 - The CPC Emulator for the PC
------------------------------------------

What is CPCEMU ?
  CPCEMU emulates an Amstrad CPC on a PC AT. You need at least a AT 386
  with VGA graphics.  The CPC ROMs are included.


Fast start:
  Copy the archive CPCEMUxx.ZIP into a directory of your hard disk and
  decompress it with  'PKUNZIP CPCEMUxx.ZIP' .
  Then use INSTALL.BAT. Now run CPC6128.BAT to have a first look.
  You can try the new online help by pressing F1.
  When questions arise, simply read the completely new documentation
  CPCEMU_E.TXT. No panic, it is shorter as it seems at the first glance.
  The user part ends with chapter 6.
