1.1     ! root        1: This document contains information specific to the BeBox version of UAE.
        !             2: 
        !             3: System requirements
        !             4: ===================
        !             5: 
        !             6: UAE will run on any System with BeOS DR8 or DR8.2.
        !             7: 
        !             8: 
        !             9: Starting UAE
        !            10: ============
        !            11: 
        !            12: UAE should only be started from the Shell.
        !            13: 
        !            14: 
        !            15: Compilation
        !            16: ===========
        !            17: 
        !            18: The configure script doesn't work under BeOS. CD to 'src' and type
        !            19: "make -fMakefile.Be".
        !            20: 
        !            21: If you are a daring person, you can edit custom.c before compiling and enable
        !            22: the "EMULATE_AGA" define. UAE will then try to emulate some AGA features. I'd
        !            23: like to hear feedback as to how well it works (expect it not to work at all
        !            24: for a start).
        !            25: 
        !            26: To enable 68020/68881 emulation, set CPU_LEVEL to 2 in config.h and recompile.
        !            27: 
        !            28: 
        !            29: Graphics
        !            30: ========
        !            31: 
        !            32: The BeOS version of UAE currently only supports a color depth of 8 bits.
        !            33: You should set the color depth of the workspace you're running UAE in to
        !            34: 8 bits/pixel for maximum speed.
        !            35:

        !            37: Sound
        !            38: =====
        !            39: 
        !            40: The sound currently doesn't work very well. You must start UAE with "-S 2"
        !            41: or "-S 3" to get sound.
        !            42:

        !            45: ========
        !            46: 
        !            47: Some special keys of the Amiga keyboard are mapped as follows:
        !            48: 
        !            49:   (Amiga)   -> (Be)
        !            50:   Help      -> Insert
        !            51:   Amiga     -> Alt
        !            52:   Alt       -> Wind*ws keys
        !            53:   Left Alt  -> End
        !            54:   Right Alt -> Right Control, Page Down
        !            55:   '(' (NP)  -> Home
        !            56:   ')' (NP)  -> Page Up
        !            57:

        !            59: Mouse and joystick emulation
        !            60: ============================
        !            61: 
        !            62: UAE will try to keep the Amiga mouse pointer at the same location as the Be
        !            63: mouse pointer. You can turn off this mode if it does not work with  your
        !            64: program by pressing F12. This is needed (for example) for Lemmings, the
        !            65: Magnetic Scrolls adventures and ProTracker; these programs don't use sprite 0
        !            66: as a mouse pointer.
        !            67: 
        !            68: A joystick in port 1 (the lower port) is supported. UAE calibrates the
        !            69: joystick automatically. Turn it a few times on startup to get the calibration
        !            70: done. 
        !            71: 
        !            72: 
        !            73: Harddisk emulation
        !            74: ==================
        !            75: 
        !            76: If you want to execute files located on a native filesystem, they need to have
        !            77: the x permission bit set. That can be done in the Bash by "chmod +x file" or
        !            78: in AmigaDOS with "protect file rwed".
