Applewin Apple II Emulator Updated

The Applewin Apple II Emulator has been updated. Applewin is a windows based Apple II emulator and many of the fixes in this latest version 1.29.14 are related to issues with Windows 10 and networking.

Tom Charlesworth and his team, winners of the 2020 Apple II Forever Award, have announced more than a dozen fixes in their latest release of Applewin.

  • [Bug #663, #691] Fixes for image loading switches (-d1,-d2,-h1,-h2,-s5d1,-s5d2):
    • support relative paths (#663).
    • updated the current directory with the path for each loaded image (#663) & when saving state (#691).
    • added a new switch ‘-current-dir <path>’ to guarantee the current dir after using image loading switches.
