Fuse project (the Free Unix Spectrum Emulator) was originally, and somewhat unsurprisingly, a Spectrum emulator for Unix. However, it has now also been ported to Mac OS X, which may or may not count as a Unix variant depending on your advocacy position.
Requirements:
· X, SDL, svgalib or framebuffer support. If you have GTK+ installed, you'll get a (much) nicer user interface under X.
· libspectrum: the Spectrum emulator file format and information library.
Optional:
· If you want +3 support, you'll need John Elliott's lib765 installed; this is available from the bottom of the libdsk homepage; if you also have libdsk installed, you'll also get support for extended .dsk files.
· libgcrypt: the ability to digitally sign RZX files (note that Fuse requires version 1.1.42 or later).
· libpng: the ability to save screenshots.
· libxml2: the ability to load and save Fuse's current configuration.
· zlib: support for compressed RZX files.
