\r
=== Status ===\r
\r
* Builds and runs under a posix-like environment with X windows\r
  - Linux\r
  - OS X\r
\r
=== Future Plans ===\r
\r
* Win32 and Win64 support\r
\r
=== Build Scripts ===\r
\r
On systems with the bash shell you can use EmulatorPkg/build.sh to simplify\r
building and running EmulatorPkg.\r
\r
For example, to build + run:\r
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh\r
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh run\r
\r
The build architecture will match your host machine's architecture.\r
\r
On X64 host machines, you can build + run IA32 mode as well:\r
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh -a IA32\r
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh -a IA32 run\r
