FILES

virtualjaguar.log Virtualjaguar log file. Only written if the log option (-l or --log) is given. If the file cannot be opened, the log it sent to standard output instead. The log file is overwritten on startup. Note that the file is written to the current directory.

${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/screenshots/ (typically ~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/screenshots/) Screenshots will be save in this directory.

${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/eeproms/ (typically ~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/eeproms/) Some Atari Jaguar cartridges feature a small writable EEPROM, used for saving game state and score lists. If this directory exists, virtualjaguar will emulate the EEPROM by saving the state in file in this directory.

${XDG_DATA_HOME}/virtualjaguar/software/ (typically ~/.local/share/data/virtualjaguar/software/) The virtualjaguar GUI for loading software scans this directory, and shows the loadable files, along with information about the program, and a label image if one is included in a zip archive of the software.
