Hi Don,

my point is that instead of trying to "port" the old code it is
much easier to simply emulate the old processor instruction set
_completely_, like I did with the 6809. People just overlook
it. And, like I said, the entire thing was 45 kilobytes (and the
actual processor emulation is a fraction of that) of PPC code....
Even the 6809 - a fairly complex 8 bit CPU - was quite easy
to emulate on a Power architecture processor with its huge
register set, all registers being larger than those to emulate etc.
And processors of that era tend to be well documented, at least
those I know (Motorolas) used to be.

As long as the original code does not do timing loops
everything runs just fine. If there are timing loops well,
they have to be taken care of. Not hard to locate.
Then emulating on a much faster CPU makes life easier;
you can just include some virtual machinery in the emulation,
e.g. trap read/writes to old peripheral addresses and handle
them on the new CPU using its peripherals - and its power
(I did not do that IIRC, I just modified a little the ROM
entry points - did have the sources as I had written it - so
that say for disk accesses via the old floppy disk controller
the thing traps and uses a memory image for a floppy disk
(the largest one was 512 kilobytes....).

A 400 MHz Power core (603e derivative) runs about 50 times
faster than two 2 MHz 6809 CPU-s could run in parallel,
without the emulation being particularly tricky or pushed,
just the old processor took a lot of cycles to do things.
They all did.

Mind you, I have done the "porting" as well - when performance
mattered. This is how I started vpa - it assembled CPU32 sources
into PPC object code. The effort did not take me a few weeks
as it did with the 6809 emulation, it took me about _a year_,
the vpa sources are 880 kilobytes - I have been progressing at
half my average programming rate which is about 150k/month...
Much much harder than the emulation (well, this was the tool
creation of course, not really comparable the two things).
