Atari Lynx Emulator Goes Open Source

Posted by simoniker on from the the-open-source-effect dept.

Bill Kendrick writes "Handy, the Atari Lynx emulator, has been re-released as Open Source software. (So that libSDL port I've always wanted might become a reality!) Handy's official website has moved to SourceForge, and the source-code is in CVS!" There are some neat homebrew Atari Lynx titles, both demos and game prototypes, available, too.

    It's good to see emulators opening. The FSM (free software movement) and emu culture can both benefit from a little collaboration.

    Emu culture gets the standard benefits of freesource, and the GNU system gets sorely needed games.
