Here’s a list of some emulators created in JavaScript:

• JSGB – Nintendo GameBoy emulator
• JSNES – Ninetendo 8bit emulator
• JSC64 – Commodore 64 emulator
• JSSpeccy – Sinclair ZX Spectrum
• Updated: Linux!

Unfortunately these emulators works best in Apple Safari and Google Chrome, but they’ll work in Firefox too, only slower. and Firefox 4.

Two days ago I started to argue with Latex again, and this time it was because of how latex markup tables. Bacause of this I’ve created yet another javascript program that aims to help users with this issue. Check it out!

Do you have a feature request or other comments? Please leave feedback here!

1. Get D-Box and Windows 3.1x.
2. If you have the diskettes for Windows, copy all the files to a directory on your hard drive. If you’ve downloaded a ISO file, extract the files to a directory on your hard drive (MacOS and most Linux distros have built-in support for ISO, just double-click on the icon, and drag the contents into a folder on you hard drive. Windows users can use WinRAR.)
3. Start D-Box, and drag the file Setup.exe from the Windows directory to D-Box’ application list. Click the OK button a few times.
4. Select the newly created item in the application list in D-Box with your mouse, and right click on it to get a pop up menu. From this menu click on “Edit Game”. In the new window, drag the slider under “How fast would you like the computer” as far right as it gets. Click OK.
5. Double click on the Windows application item in D-Box’ application list. Follow the setup’s installation steps. The defaults are good. Do not try to change the screen resolution. Leave it at VGA. Don’t bother with the network settings either.
6. When the installation is finished close the Dosbox window and return to D-Box. Once again, get the Edit game window (same procedure as in step 4), and change the text in the field Executable to:

   WINDOWS\WIN.COM

   and click OK.

   

7. Now you may use Windows 3.1x on your new super computer, and play, not only DOS games, but also 16bit Windows games! To add a new Windows game, just copy the files to the folder where you left the Windows 3.1x installation files.

Update: Do you want sound or better graphics?

The problem with tabs in an e-mail client, is that you generally don’t need them for a longer period. In Firefox I usually have 10 to 15 tabs open at all times, but in Thunderbird I usually stick with one. Since the tab-bar takes up quite a lot of valuable horizontal space, it would make sense to hide the tab-bar when you don’t need it. Firefox has a nice feature called “auto hide”. It makes the tab-bar disappear when the window only have one tab open. I’ve browsed through Thunderbird’s settings window, but haven’t found anything similar. Fortunately, I’ve found a “hidden” setting that allows you to turn on auto-hiding.

Here’s how:

1. Open Thunderbird’s Preferences window (Tools -> Options on Windows, Edit -> Preferences on Linux and Thunderbird -> Preferences on Mac)
2. Click on “Advanced”
3. Click on the “Config Editor” button (which is under the “General” tab)
4. Search for “mail.tabs.autoHide”
5. Double-click on the setting so that it becomes “true” (and the font changes to bold)

Voilà!

Now that I finally managed to release D-Box 2.1, I’ve dusted off an old project: Creating a new and exciting product page for the application. I think it’s at least a bit cooler than the old google style page, and hope you feel the same:) It isn’t exactly an encyclopedia of fact, but it contains the most useful stuff. I will still keep the old page, but just for developing and wiki related stuff. Thanks to Gisle it now has it’s own subdomain under the truben.no umbrella.

Take it for a spin! – dbox.truben.no

Sidebar Twitter (Click for lager picture)

I really like Twitter, and use it a lot. Although I only have roughly 25 followers and follows, it’s fun to take a break and check out if for example “Uncle Bob” has anything new on his mind. I know there are a bunch of programs out there that tries to make Twitter even easier, but the way I see it, it tends to make it more complicated (only program I’ve been fairly happy with, is Beak for Mac). If Firefox is your browser of choice, it has some fairly good extensions like Twitterbar, but if you want a lean browser, you have to keep the number of installed extensions to a minimum. So, is it possible to integrate Firefox with twitter without installing any add-ons?

Yes it is! The best way to use Twitter in Firefox, in my humble opinion, is to rediscover an old forgotten gem: The sidebar. Netscape 6 (which is the “father” of Firefox) had this nifty feature, which in reality only is a web page that is displayed in a column on the left side of the browser window. Since Firefox is one of Netscape’s siblings, it still has this feature. In addition to the sidebar we need the mobile version of Twitter, which works on small mobile screens. So here is the recipe for today’s trick:

1. Go to http://m.twitter.com
2. Press the Bookmark menu, and select “Bookmark this page”
3. Call the bookmark Twitter or something
4. Right-click on your bookmark, and select “Properties”
5. Check the “Load this bookmark in the sidebar” checkbox.

You may now click on this bookmark, and have Twitter located in the left part of the browser window. Nifty!

PS: If you don’t get the mobile page of Twitter: scroll down, and click on the link “View Twitter in: Mobile”.

Update: Or you can simply click her to add Twitter to your sidebar!
