      DarcNES for Windows
 Valiantly resisting the light

        Port by Vector
    <vector@crosswinds.net>
-------------------------------

This is the Windows port of Nyef's DarcNES, a multi-system emulator.
Currently emulated systems are Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Master
System, Sega Game Gear, ColecoVision and bits 'n pieces of some other
systems. The emulation is not perfect but it's getting better all the time.

This Windows port uses DirectX technology, so you will need a video card
with DirectDraw support and optionally a sound card with DirectSound support
for sound. DarcNES for Windows uses DirectX acceleration where available.
