Description
Virtualjaguar is an emulator for the Atari Jaguar videogame system.
Files
virtualjaguar.log
Virtualjaguar log file. Only written if the log option (-l or --log) is given. If the file cannot
be opened, the log it sent to standard output instead. The log file is overwritten on startup.
Note that the file is written to the current directory.
${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/eeproms/(typically~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/eeproms/)
Some Atari Jaguar cartridges feature a small writable EEPROM, used for saving game state and score
lists. If this directory exists, virtualjaguar will emulate the EEPROM by saving the state in file
in this directory.
${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/software/(typically~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/)
The virtualjaguar GUI for loading software scans this directory, and shows the loadable files,
along with information about the program, and a label image if one is included in a zip archive of
the software.
