I’ve posted Sweet16 2.0 Public Beta 2, otherwise known as Sweet16
2.0b17. This new version adds a ton of features, including Ethernet
networking support for Marinetti, joystick support, improved graphics,
a very handy debugger for Apple II programmers, and CD-ROM support.

Thank you very much for your work on this emulator. Now with that said
I do have a few questions:
1. There are no scan lines displayed. KEGS appears to do this and it
look a little weird without them.
I've never seen KEGS show scan lines. At any rate, that's not a
feature I expect to offer because it just makes the video harder to
read.
2. This is over 3x slower then KEGS and it uses 2 cores. I have a MBP
Core 2 Duo 2.5Ghz and I only get around 50Mhz. With KEGS I get over
150Mhz or even more on just 1 core.
I get 120 MHz on my Core 2 Duo iMac 2.4 GHz. Make sure you've not
turned debug mode on, which slows things down by a substantial amount.
3. Where is the source code? I wouldn't even bother mentioning the
above 2 if I had the code :). Come on, your interface is great. Do you
still have a JIT? Wasn't there one for PowerPC? It would be awesome to
mess with that for x86-64.
Sweet16 is not open source. Due to the fact that CodeWarrior is no
longer a viable development option, and the assembly code was all
written to take advantage of CodeWarrior features, the PowerPC version
no longer uses the assembly core, and instead the PPC and Intel code
is both generated from the same C code.

I don't have debugging on in the preferences. Something is definitely
wrong here if you are getting 120Mhz. Anywhere else that may turn on
debugging?
I don't care what the source code looks like, or what development
environment it is in. I just want to look at the source code. If you
die, so does this app. I know giving up full control is hard. But, at
some point you have to let your children leave the nest.
Thanks...
