Exactly 10 years has passed since the first public alpha (or rather: WIP) of YAPE saw the light of day. It is just as unbelievable as it can get... sheesh. It started off as an attempt at a more intelligent disassembler when I realized how much fun it really is to learn the hardware AND C++ programming at the same time while dealing with my all time favourite hobby. I thought this anniversary would be also a nice opportunity to abandon the rather clumsy versioning I have been following in the past. Anyway I have not got much time to make a long rant here, so you will be spared :-)

The main changes in the aptly named - 10 years old - 1.0 compared to 0.86 are as follows:

• 32-bit and automatic bitdepth option in fullscreen mode (8 bit full screen mode might be slow under newer Windoze's)
• copy & paste to/from the clipboard now respects upper/lower case mode
• partially implemented 48 bps mode of the T6721A speech LSI
• G64 image support is no longer read only (yay, at last)
• reading from open address space
• plenty of bugfixes (drive, TED, autostart, monitor etc.)

Of course 1.0 not to mean Yape is ready and will be abandoned. A piece of software never really is. Head on over to the downloads section while it's still warm.

We're all old jerks
