How do you use this?

[paxperscientiam]

Hello, could you please provide some insight into how to run this?

[gongo]

@paxperscientiam I'm sorry for the late reply

📝 haven't written the README yet ...

1. byte-compile

   $ cd /path/to/emacs-nes
   $ emacs -batch -L . -f batch-byte-compile nes*.el
   

2. Set load-path

   (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/emacs-nes")
   

   or specify when launch emacs

   $ emacs -L /path/to/emacs-nes
   

3. load emacs-nes M-x load-library RET nes

4. Start nes (select load rom) M-x nes RET [FILE]

Hi @gongo , no problem. I followed your instructions and was able to run nestest.nes rom. The problem I'm seeing is that contest is too big. Maybe something to do with my config, but IDK.

This is true in both text terminal emacs and the mac build with graphical backend. If I can help with more information, just ask!

When use emacs on terminal (e.g. iTerm):

1. Open the font settings panel

2. Change the height and width of characters

   • Because default character h/w is not square

3. Make character smaller

4. Change the height and width of screen (emacs terminal) to 256x240 (eq NES screen size)
