* Prolog
 
  There was a lot of need for the games in NEXTSTEP community, and I
  really need the game running on NEXTSTEP. I thought that merely
  porting of this would make hundreds of games available to NEXTSTEP
  users. So I ported this to NEXTSTEP. 

  I developed and tested this only for 2 days. So this may have some
  bugs. But while I tested, it worked quite well.

  I really hope that everyone using NEXTSTEP enjoy this...

  For the gamer on NEXTSTEP...


* Introduction

  - VGB for NEXTSTEP is Portable Nintendo GameBoy Emulator.
  - VGB for NEXTSTEP is ported from Marat Fayzullin's original work.
  - VGB for NEXTSTEP is Freeware. Everybody can use and distribute
    this without fee.


* System Requirements

  - VGB for NEXTSTEP works on NEXTSTEP 3.3. (Not tested on OPENSTEP)
  - VGB for NEXTSTEP works on Intel, Motorola, Sparc, HPPA.


* Features & Limitations

  - Cartridge file (*.gb or *.GB) can be double-clicked to be opened.
    (If you want to open cartridge file by double-clicking, you should
    put VGB.app to /LocalApps or ~/Apps)
  - VGB for NEXTSTEP can display only in gray level. When I tested
    in color mode, it was 2 - 3 times slower. So I didn't add
    color support.
  - VGB for NEXTSTEP can not play sound because the original version,
    VGB for UNIX/X doesn't support sound.
