;[[Jynx]]:Open-source Camputers Lynx emulator for Windows and Linux. Emulates the 48K/96K RAM models.
;PALE:Probably a closed-source but powerful emulator. Get Simon Owen's [http://simonowen.com/fdrawcmd/ FDRAW driver] for W2K, XP and later (Needed for real floppy support under PALE). It also has a ZX Spectrum Emulator Mode.
;[[MAME]]:The system started working in [http://wiki.mamedev.org/index.php/MAME_0.167 v0.167] (Oct 2015) and many software were supported in [http://wiki.mamedev.org/index.php/MAME_0.196 v0.196] (Mar 2018). Version [http://www.mamedev.org/?p=459 0.200] (Jul 2018) included better Camputers Lynx tape support (with lots of additions to the software list).
==Overview==
The Camputers Lynx was released as a 48 kB RAM model, with several reiterations adding RAM expansions up to 192 kB. This machine was unique in that it included a graphic command line and basically allowed the user possibility to read hex values when using third party software.
