-- What is Virtual Jaguar GCC/SDL?
-
-Virtual Jaguar is software dedicated to emulate the Atari Jaguar hardware
-on a standard P.C. The software was originally developed by Potato Emulation
-(http://potato.emu-france.com) by Cal2 and was released under the GPL license
-on 25 June 2003.
-
-Virtual Jaguar GCC/SDL is a port of the MS Visual C++/SDL sourcecode so that
-we can enjoy Atari Jaguar emulation on every platform which uses the GCC
-compiler and that can make use of the Simple Directmedia Layer library (SDL).
-
-Currently Virtual Jaguar GCC/SDL compiles on WIN32 using mingw, and several
-UN*X based systems (BeOS, Linux and FreeBSD). It may run on other systems
-as well but we can not guarantee that.

+- IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT JAGUAR FILE FORMATS--READ THIS OR ELSE! -
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+There seems to be a lot of confusion surrounding the various file formats that
+Jaguar programs come in, and a lot of this confusion seem to come from
+Cowering's GoodJag renaming tool. Note that it simply gets some files wrong,
+and it also incorrectly renames cartridge images with an extension that
+belongs to an already established extension (.jag is a Jaguar Server
+executable--read on). To clarify, there are basically four major types of
+Jaguar binary images that are NOT cartridge images:
+
+ .abs
+ .jag
+ .rom
+ .bin
+
+The first type, the .abs file, is a DRI/Alcyon format absolute location
+executable. These come in two different flavors and contain load and run
+addresses in their headers. Note that some files which have an .abs extension
+are really incorrectly labelled .bin files with no header information
+whatsoever.
+
+The second type, the .jag file, is a Jaguar Server executable. These files
+contain header information that tells you where to load and run the file's
+executable code. Note that as of this writing (8/5/2005) that the GoodJag ROM
+renaming tool by Cowering incorrectly renames Jaguar cartridge ROM dumps to
+have a .jag extension (a better choice, and the one supported by Virtual
+Jaguar, is .j64)--if you're trying to run a ROM image with a .jag extension on
+VJ, it will misinterpret it as a Jaguar Server executable and likely fail to
+run.
+
+The third type, the .rom file, is an Alpine Board/ROM Image file. These files
+have no header, but are known to load and run at $802000 in the Jaguar memory
+space. Again, these are *different* from cartridge dumps since they load at a
+higher address than a Jaguar cartridge.
+
+The fourth type, the .bin file, is simply a Jaguar executable with no header.
+Since these files contain no information about where they load and execute,
+Virtual Jaguar does not support this file type. Go bug the author to release
+either a file with proper headers or a file in Alpine ROM format. Virtual
+Jaguar is not omniscient (yet)! ;)
+
+There is a fifth type of file that is supported by Virtual Jaguar, the .j64
+file, which is simply a 1, 2, or 4 Meg dump of a Jaguar cartridge ROM which
+loads at $800000 in the Jaguar memory space.

+- What is Virtual Jaguar GCC/Qt? -
+----------------------------------
+
+Virtual Jaguar is software dedicated to emulating the Atari Jaguar hardware on
+a standard PC. The software was originally developed by David Raingeard of
+Potato Emulation [http://potato.emu-france.com] and was released under the GPL
+on 25 June 2003.
+
+Virtual Jaguar GCC/Qt is not just a port of the MS Visual C++/SDL sourcecode
+but has also been extended and rewritten so that we can enjoy Atari Jaguar
+emulation on every platform that has a GCC compiler and a port of Qt.
+
+Currently Virtual Jaguar GCC/Qt compiles on WIN32 using mingw, and several
+UN*X based systems (BeOS, Linux, FreeBSD and MacOS). It may run on other
+systems as well but we can not guarantee that.
