The Atari ST Preservation Project

On this page is a list of resources/software used to implement the project, both Windows and Atari ST software/tools. For a a fairly detailed method of the approach to my project, click here.

This page is still under construction. Resources used in the project take the form of software tools used, and anything else that I might need.
