All of the buildings, all of those cars
were once just a dream

A few months ago, I stumbled on a NeXT Computer Replica - Raspberry Pi Case from Nina Makes and I printed one of my own but for a Raspberry Pi 4 which required a different back STL file to properly fit. I found this remix here for that.
Picking up my series about the eZ80, “I don’t like Windows.” and “Why do you want to do/know that?” again, I decided to see if I could get the ZDS II running on Linux. This actually turned out to be rather easy, with the right hardware…
Continuing my series about the eZ80, “I don’t like Windows.” and “Why do you want to do/know that?”, I decided to see if I could make sense of the LOD file format produced by the Zilog tools.
Update: Two weeks after posting this blog post, I got a friendly message from Adrien Bertrand. Turns out, there are various projects that use the CEmu core directly. They’re only a bit hard to discover. Two examples are:
Although the Zilog ZDS II tools do their job, they definitely show their age. The main bottleneck is the C Compiler which is stuck at C89 making compiling modern C code painful if not impossible. Even when modern C code is C89 compliant it’s still no guarantee to compile (a good example is LUA). The C compiler is rather slow as well.
