+atari800_roms (system ROMs for Atari 8-bit computers)
+
+The operating system and BASIC language ROM images from the Atari 800 and
+800XL computers. The ROM images are installed in /usr/share/atari800/,
+for use with the atari800 emulator, but may be used with other emulators
+such as Atari++.
+
+Also included are bootable disk images for Atari DOS 2.5 and MyDOS
+4.5d, and a couple of disks of demo software. These are installed in
+/usr/share/atari800/disks.
+
+These ROM images are proprietary and copyrighted, but the copyright holder
+granted the right to redistribute them to the authors of PC Xformer, a
+(now obsolete) Atari emulator. This build extracts the ROMs from the PC
+Xformer zip file.
