Secret Of Monkey Island is © 1990 Lucasfilm Games

Features:

- Convenient Installer script
- Runs from WB/CLI on any OS without GFX corruption or pointer shift
- Uses JST or WHDLoad to run
- Heavily relies on OSEmu to run many system operations
- Password protection removed (thanks to some crack group I forgot the name)
- Quit key anytime (numerical '*', or QUITKEY)
- Save/load to HD

Notes:

- After having released a dirty patch some time ago, I worked on a OSEmu version
  of the game, because it's much more standard and compatible, but it's also
  really harder to do :)

- This one meant really hard work for me on OSEmu (mouse pointer/prefs/screen, etc...)
  I hope you'll appreciate.

- The game originally works in DOS mode, but you have to select 'enhanced' chipset
  or gfx corruption occur. To do that you had to reboot, and boot without startup.

- The game protection and more generally the coding is very intricate. That's why some
  bugs are there, and sometimes too hard to fix, but the game is fully playable, and
  this fix is the only way to run it on some amigas from WB.

- Original quit button (F5 + give up) still work

- Main keys:
  * Space: pause
  * F5: save/load/quit
  * ESC: skip sequences
  * F8: restart (do not use, because protection comes back!)

- OSEmu v1.45 at least is required. It is included in the distribution.

BUGS:

- Because of OS swap, saving a game position usually takes a long time (2 or 3 minutes!!)
  And after the save, the display can be fucked up. In that last case, quit and restart
  (your game has been saved OK anyway)

- Entering a gamesave name works but there are some problems with keyboard. Not serious,
  but letters appear 2 by 2. You'll notice it. Not really annoying anyway.

- The installer installs savegames on all slots. It avoids that the game triggers OS
  swaps while it looks for unexisting savegame files.

- The protection is bypassed the first time, but if you restart (F8) it will be there.
  So don't do it. Load a "start" position instead.
