Could you add a commandline param for fullscreen, a key shortcut for Exit (preferable without confirmation), a simple scanline filter and support for CHD? Sorry for the long list but having an emu for FM after all those years, makes me very intigued. Thank you!

Scanline filter is already in. Start with -SCANLINE15K option to enable it. But, since Towns had scanline only in the 15KHz mode, it takes effect only in 15KHz mode. CD, LS, PWD were something I should have added long time ago. Will be added soon. Full-screen mode is doable, but I never put high priority, and will not be perfect in Linux and macOS because I don't know how to do. Since I'm getting many requests for full-screen mode, I'll do it eventually.

Added support for full screen (-FULLSCREEN option, also choose in the GUI). Works for Windows and Linux. macOS version cannot erase window frame. As far as I studied, to do so I need to destroy and re-create a window, which is too much for me. It's too much pain to write Objective-C code. You can use full-screen mode with the current source, and will be included in the next release.

Thank you very much! I will try it once the new release is out. Any chance you could add a "quick exit without confirmation" keyboard shortcut as well?

I've added FORCEQUIT command which calls exit(0) right away. You can assign this command to a key by -HOSTSHORTCUT parameter.

Thank you

Thanx. I just got the new build. Fullscreen works quite nice (It seems some bottom screen information being cut off. I can provide screenshots if you want). I cannot make the exit key work: Here are my params for Tsugaru_CUI: -HOSTSHORTCUT FORCEQUIT ESC -GAMEPORT0 PHYS0 -SCALE 200 -FULLSCREEN -FREQ 25 -YESWAIT -CD

Host Short-Cut option needs to be -HOSTSHORTCUT key ctrl shift command. In your case,

-HOSTSHORTCUT ESC 0 0 FORCEQUIT

PanosPl commented 2 years ago

Quit works perfectly. Thanx
