dosboxece-opl

DosBoxECE with a hardware OPL implementation for OPL2LPT, OPL3LPT, OPL2 Audio and OPL3 Duo! support.

Required libraries

The following librariers are required in addition to those required to build DOSBoxECE vanilla.

• libieee1284-dev

The current build target is Linux only. This is mainly due to the parallel port requirement.
