ARAnyM – software virtual machine

ARAnyM is an acronym: Atari Running on Any Machine. It is a 32-bit Atari computer clone.

Specifically, it is a virtual machine software for running the Atari ST/TT/Falcon operating systems (TOS, FreeMiNT, MagiC and others) and TOS/GEM applications.

The reason for writing ARAnyM is to provide Atari power users with faster and better machines. The ultimate goal is to create a new platform where TOS/GEM applications could continue to live forever.

ARAnyM provides both ST-RAM and FastRAM (sometimes also called TT-RAM). ST-RAM size is always 14MB. FastRAM size is adjustable from 0 up to 4GB.

Features include:

• MC68040 compatible CPU (including optional MMU!)
• MC68881 compatible FPU.
• JIT Compiler for CPU and FPU (speeds up CPU+FPU up to 10x!)
• ST-RAM 14 MB.
• Fast-RAM configurable 0-3824 MB.
• Host accelerated fVDI graphics (large highcolor/truecolor resolutions).
• Access to Host OS filesystems using BetaDOS or MiNT native XFS driver.
• Ethernet networking via host using MiNT-Net XIF driver.
• TOS 4.x XBIOS compatible with Atari Falcon DMA Sound (16-bit 48 kHz stereo sound).
• Parallel port (bidirectional).
• MFP, IKBD, ACIA, VIDEL, BLITTER, FDC, IDE, DSP MC56001.
• Atari floppy DD/HD for connecting floppy image or real floppy drive.
• Two IDE channels for connecting disk images, hard drives or CD-ROMs.
• Extended keyboard and mouse support (including mouse wheel).
• Native CD-ROM access.
• Cross-platform support – runs under Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Irix, Solaris, FreeMiNT, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Windows.
