Proposal: Official Zeta integration

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Hey! I'm the developer of a small project called Zeta, which aims to provide a kind of emulator slash drop-in wrapper for ZZT.EXE. While it is possible to get zlaunch to boot Zeta in place of ZZT, at least on Linux, many users run into configuration difficulties. As such, I think it'd be nice if we could consider cooperating on giving users something that integrates the two pretty well - zlaunch may be repurposable for this, but I'd like to insist that users be able to configure the Zeta command line arguments, ideally on a per-world basis.

Sounds good to me. TBH I hadn't looked at the zlaunch code until now. I'd want to move to picking the ZZT runner at runtime instead of compile time to start supporting something like this.

No rush and no worries. Just so you know, in its most basic form, you can just run "zeta86 world.zzt" like you would ZZT; but additional arguments let you mess with the emulator's behaviour, such as "-t" to skip K/C, "-b" to disable blinking, et cetera.
