'''DingusPPC''' is an experimental PowerPC emulator similar to [[PearPC]] ans [[Sheepshaver]] but, unlike them and like [[QEMU]], attempting additionally to emulate PPC Macs accurately as well as well as to provide a better debugging environment, complete with a disassembler, having been designed to work best with PowerPC Old World ROMs including those of the PowerMac G3 Beige. It currently has no GUI and utilizes the command prompt for input.
'''DingusPPC''' is an experimental open-source PowerPC systems emulator with limited support for some Macs.
 
==Overview==
DingusPPC is similar to PearPC, Sheepshaver, and [[QEMU]] in that it attempts to emulate PowerPC Macs. Unlike PearPC and Sheepshaver, which took shortcuts to achieve good performance on now lower-end hardware, DingusPPC uses the approach that QEMU does in emulating systems accurately. In addition, DingusPPC is intended to provide a better debugging environment including a disassembler and support for OpenFirmware. It is currently designed to work best with Old World ROMs including any lineage of PowerPC Macs similar to the PowerMac G3 Beige. It currently has no graphical interface and can only be run from a shell.
