1.1.1.5   root       15: Hatari is an Atari ST/STE/TT/Falcon emulator for Linux, FreeBSD, BeOS and
                     16: other Systems which are supported by the SDL library.
1.1       root       17: .PP
1.1.1.3   root       18: With hatari one can run games, demos or applications written for Atari
1.1.1.5   root       19: ST or Atari STE.  TT and Falcon support is experimental.  Hatari supports
                     20: the commonly used *.st and *.msa disk images and hard disk emulation.
1.1       root       21: .PP
1.1.1.3   root       22: To run the emulator a TOS ROM image is needed. EmuTOS, a free
                     23: implementation of TOS is shipped with hatari. Since it is not yet
                     24: fully compatible with the original TOS some programs won't run
                     25: correctly with this. Because of this it is recommended to use a TOS
                     26: ROM from a real Atari.
