[Blindapple] Running on Apple silicon?

[Tiny Puppy-butchb]

Can't help with a mac,
I have mame on my windows seven with lots of disk images I'm
making from my 2 e as well as others I've gathered.  Sounds and
runs just like a 2 e.  Kind of fun.
I can put my whole folder on drop box if you want.  Just unzip it
and open the folder and there is the program plus a couple
folders of disks and One I'm making called butch batch files so I
can just run the batch file instead of going to the command line
every time and typing all the stuff needed.

Cool...so...if we get Mame, can we make the IIe emulator to run?

  Hi.  If you’re going to use Mame on the Mac, your best bet is 
to probably get it through Homebrew.  That it will automatically 
install all the various required libraries and what not.
  You can find home-brew at http://brew.sh <http://brew.sh/>.

    Hi,

    I have no idea if MESS will even run on Apple Silicon, since 
the MESS project hasn't been a going concern for years. MESS 
merged into the MAME project at www.mamedev.org where you can 
probably find an appropriate download. I've created a MameApple 
package a few years ago, but only have one for Windows. It does 
things a bit differently, in particular I think the ROM files are 
different.

      Hi all.

      So I grabbed the Mac version of the emulator, unzipped it, 
put the SDL library in /library/frameworks, allowed mess64, 
allowed the SDL framework, and allowed terminal to monitor 
keystrokes, it complained about something but I couldn’t catch 
the message because it just opened system settings. That was the 
only app in the table and I didn’t see mess64 in applications to 
add it.

      If I run it like so:


      ./mess64 apple2ee -flop1 ./ae/dos33/eamontlk.dsk

      It says it’s not responding a lot, says something about 
sdnsync window is sleeping, (again can’t quite tell what this 
is), and either ends on its own or interprets cmd-opt-esc to 
enter forced quit as a signal to kill it.

      Anybody know the right incantation to get this working? 
Alternatively, if it doesn’t work on M-seires processors, is 
there an emulator that does? With Echo naturally.

      TIA for any help. I hope it works, I was looking forward to 
playing some Eamon, and engaging in the Inception of nostalgia, 
emulating my first Apple computer, the first computer I ever 
used, on a modern Apple computer. “The circle is now complete”! 
Well, it will be if I can get it working anyway.
