Tachibana
たちばな — the wild citrus
Firmware, emulators and tools for the Oric, the Neo6502 and the Minitel
Documented software, most of it published with its source code; the Neo6502 software is tested on the board.
Where to start
Neo6502
Trinity, our alternative firmware for the Olimex board, and a reference of its API, with verified examples.

Our approach
守
Keep
Copy and document what still exists: ROMs, schematics, manuals, floppy disks.
作
Create
Write new software for these machines: firmware, emulators, tools, games.
Contribute
What actually helps us:
- Test our software, on the board or in an emulator, and tell us what works and what does not.
- Report a bug by opening an issue on the program's repository; each product page names its repository.
- Translate, from French into English or from English into French.
- Propose code, on GitHub.
