well, there's actually a ZX Spectrum emulator for the 68k series. Supposedly it has sound support, too. I doubt it'll be very accurate, but you might want to try it anyway...

nice and raw. that's what real punk is about imho. me likey.

yeah i often think about him. one of the most awesome chippers imho. even if the rumor was true, he's been missing for, like, 3 years now.

Et voilà, the 83+ port is done. Tested it with MirageOS and DoorsCS, but it should work on any newer shell. Also the latest version fixes a minor bug in the 83 port which caused problems with one of the drum sounds.
Unfortunately, I had to reduce the maximum song size in the 83+ version, since the user RAM is much smaller on this machine. In the future, I'll probably need to cut down the 83 version as well.
As with the 83 port, I have no means of testing this on real hardware, so use it at your own risk. Btw if anybody happens to own a TI73, the 83+ version will probably work on that as well.

Anyway, download as always at http://irrlichtproject.de/downloads/houston.zip (contains builds for all supported calcs)

As far as 84+ is concerned, I've said it before and I'll say it again: No, it doesn't work, and I don't plan on supporting it in the near future. There are more interesting things you can do with this one.

Yup, on Windows you can use VTI 2.5. This one is a bit buggy, make sure you always turn off sound support before closing the emu.

Alternatively, for both Win and *nix you can use the latest beta of Tilem2.

And TI83 port is done. Also, the latest version fixes a critical bug which prevented one of the sound routines from exiting. Please re-download from the usual address. (This package contains the TI83 build as well.)

TI83+ port will probably follow very soon.

Houston Tracker 0.2 is here with quite a few new features, including:

- Copy/Cut and a few other things to make editing easier
- 2 new sound routines - TIM-FX (2 PFM channels, various fx), and Mark-2 (3 square wave channels)
- Can now change the song speed from within the song data
- Rudimentary "Live" features: can now pause or loop the current row during playback
- Simple Load/Save: can now preserve one additional song in memory

Now there are just a couple things left on my agenda: Multiload/Save with compression, and a channel mute feature, which in turn will allow copying selected channels. Also, there'll probably be a few bugs again. And a lot of optimizing remains to be done, right now some parts of the code are rather bloated. Currently the actual program is about 4.4 kbytes, plus 20k for the song data. That means there are about 2.5k left to work with. Probably the extended save function will eat up most of that. If there's any space left in the end, I might add some more drums and possibly one additional sound routine.

Anyway, enjoy! And please report any bugs you find.
