It attempts to bring many of the great features of WinUAE +to non-Windows platforms. This version now finally has a name, E-UAE, since +that's what everybody was calling it anyway. The 'E' can stand for anything +you fancy. Experimental, extreme, exciting, egalitarian, eggplant... + +E-UAE is open-source software and is made available under the terms of the +GPL. See the COPYING file included with the E-UAE archive for details. + +E-UAE is based on the work of dozens of contributors including Bernd Schmidt +(the original author and maintainer of UAE), Bernie Meyer (the author of the +x86 JIT compiler), Toni Wilen (the current maintainer of WinUAE), and many +more. + +To make full use of E-UAE you will need access to an image of some version +of the Amiga Kickstart ROM (although UAE does include a ROM emulation which +may work with some old games). The Amiga Kickstart ROMs are copyrighted +material and may not be freely distributed (so don't ask me for a copy). If +you don't have an Amiga from which you can legally make a ROM image, a +selection of ROM images are available for purchase online from Cloanto +(publishers of the Amiga Forever distribution).
