## 项目历史与用法

JOYCE is John Elliott's Amstrad PCW emulator for Unix, Windows, and macOS. It emulates the PCW family and incorporates ANNE for the PcW16, preserving a British word-processor/computer line whose original development codename, Joyce, became the emulator's name.

### 项目历史

The official JOYCE page describes an SDL-based emulator for the Amstrad PCW on Unix, Windows, and Mac OS X, with possible portability to other SDL-supported platforms. The FAQ documents emulation of the Z80 CPU, screen, keyboard, floppy controller, Centronics ports, serial interface, built-in PCW printers, mice, light pen, beeper, and LocoLink.

The update history reaches at least December 2002 with JOYCE v2.0.2 and continues through the 2.2 stable series, 2.4 stable series, and 2.5 development series. Later entries added or repaired hard-drive emulation, host-directory drive support, PcW16 acceleration, joystick support, disk-format support, Mac OS X build support, printer output, PCW-Linkit, and PDF/PNG output paths.

### 采用历史

JOYCE is niche by normal package-manager standards, but valuable in retrocomputing because it packages PCW and PcW16 emulation for modern systems. Homebrew packaging makes xjoyce and companion disk utilities available to macOS users without manually building an older SDL-based emulator stack.

### 使用方式

JOYCE is used to boot and run Amstrad PCW software from disk images, use emulated printers and ports, share files through emulated drives, and preserve workflows around CP/M, LocoScript, PCW games, and PcW16 software. The FAQ is careful about boot disk legality, noting that copyrighted boot disks cannot simply be redistributed.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

JOYCE matters to package nerds because it is the sort of emulator that keeps historically specific hardware usable from a standard package manager. Its formula bundles not just a main emulator but disk and utility commands, which is typical of preservation-oriented emulator packages.
