	1. Introduction.

  Z80Stealth is the Speccy 128,Pentagon 128/512/1024,Scorpion ZS 256, Profi 1024, 
  KAY 1024 emulator for Windows. 
  Main goal is to emulate Speccy's hardware as close as possible. 
  Main features: very good z80 emulation, 
  _perfect_ AY-3-8910(12)/YM2149F and General Sound emulation,
  beeper, Covox, SounDrive emulation.
  KP1818VG93 (Betadisk/TRDOS) emulation, menus to load/save/browse your 
  collection of Speccy's snaps,tapes,disks.
  Emulation of such hardware as Cache,GIGASCREEN,Flash-color,16col,CMOS etc
  It supports popular file formats:
	Snapshots - Z80 (+ Z80Stealth's enhanced version),
		    SNA,SLT,SP,PRG,ACH,SIT

	4. Usage.
	Ok first you must edit z80s.cfg - there's comments for 
	every option so it's not very difficult.
	After that just run z80s.exe to bootup Speccy 128 or Pentagon.
		
	
	About TAP files:
	 After selecting tape file you can load it as it was on real Speccy:
	Tape Loader in the 128K menu or go to 48K Basic and type LOAD "".
	If game doesnt load you should try both methods.
	
         Keys:

	 F1  - Load/Save snapshots menu 
	       In this menu:
	        F4 - Joystick type (Cursor,Kempston,Sinclair 1,Sinclair 2)
	             it will be emulated via cursor keys+Ctrl 
		     (read about F11 below)
		F5 - AY(YM) stereo mode (ABC,ACB,BAC)
		F6 - Music chip type (AY,YM)
		F7 - Covox On/Off
		F8 - SounDrive On/Off
	  	F9 - TRDOS mode with traps on/off
               In 'Load' menu Alt-D to change drive

	 F9  - Max Speed On/Off
         F10 - Exit
	 F12 - Reset
	 Delete - Debugger 
	 End - Debugger for General Sound board
	 PageUp - Built-in boot for TRDOS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------	
	5. Debugger howto
	Press Delete to invoke debugger.
        In debugger:
	F1 - menu to load/save snapshots,disks,open/close PSG file,raise NMI
       	F6,Tab - switch between windows
       	ALT-1,2,3,4 - switch to certain window
       	F4 - Hex/Dec
       	F7 - Trace
	F8 - Step over
	Ctrl-G - jump to certain address (in dump,disasm,stack windows)	
       	ENTER - enter new value (in stack,registers windows,
	in memory dump window you can simply press 0-9,a-f to enter values
	or ' to enter character instead of numeric value)


	Disasm window:
	=============================
	F2 - set/remove breakpoints (in disasm windows)
	Ctrl-R - remove all breakpoints
	+ - disasm 1byte backward
	- - disasm 1byte forward
	Assembler: If disasm window is active you can easily type in
	asm mnemonic. For hex numbers put '#' before number or 'h' after it.
	JR/DJNZ - you can input direct address or +/- offset like this:
		jr nz,+120
		jr nz,-12 
		jr nz,ffffh (or jr nz,#ffff or jr nz,65535)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
	6. Future plans.
	
	- Better Profi 1024 emulation.
	- FDI,TD0,FDD disk images support
	- Add more features to debugger
	- Printer emulation
	- Optional onscreen indicators of disk activity,Turbo on/off etc
	- SMUC,GMX,PC keyboard controller,full General Sound emulation
	- ATM and other clones emulation.
	- Better Z80 timing emulation.
