Zeta is a small emulator, implementing a fraction of a DOS-compatible environment just large enough to run ZZT and Super ZZT, allowing user-friendly and accurate usage of them in modern environments, as well as easy packaging, distribution and embedding of ZZT games.
./autogen.sh && mkdir build && cd build && ../configure --with-frontend=sdl2 && make
You're going to need the development headers/package for SDL2 (sdl2-devel on Fedora, libsdl2-dev on Debian/Ubuntu, sdl2 on Arch, etc).
Use make PLATFORM=platform, where platform is generally of the form platform-frontend.
- mingw32-sdl3 - SDL3 frontend, Windows
- unix-sdl2 - SDL2 frontend, Linux
