Generator is an open source emulator by James Ponder designed to emulate the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis console, a popular games machine produced in the early 1990s. It is a portable program written in C and has been ported to the Amiga, Macintosh, Windows, Dreamcast and even pocket PCs such as the iPAQ and Cassiopeia. Natively, it compiles under Unix for X Windows with either tcl/tk or gtk/SDL, for svgalib and even cross-compiles to DOS with djgpp/allegro.
