\subsection{\label{ref:Chip8emulator}Chip{}-8 Emulator}
Chip8 is a kind of assembly language for a long-gone architecture.
This plugin runs games written using the chip8 instructions.
Just press PLAY on a .ch8 file to start a game.
To start a game open a \fname{.ch8} file in the \setting{File Browser}
There are lots of tiny Chip8 games (usually only about 256 bytes to a
couple of KB) which were made popular by the HP48

The only problem is that they are based on a 4x4 keyboard, but since most
games do not use all of the buttons, this can easily be worked around.
To do this, one may put a ``.c8k'' file with the same name as the
original program which contains new key mappings (for BLINKY.ch8, one
writes a BLINKY.c8k file).
That c8k file contains 16 characters
describing the mapping from the Chip8 keyboard to the default key
To do this, one may put a \fname{``.c8k''} file with the same name as the
original program which contains new key mappings (for \fname{BLINKY.ch8}, one
writes a \fname{BLINKY.c8k} file). That \fname{.c8k} file contains 16
characters describing the mapping from the Chip8 keyboard to the default key
mapping (that way, several Chip8 keys can be pressed using only one
Rockbox key). For example, a file containing the single line:\\\\
\textbf{0122458469ABCDEF}\\\\
would correspond to the following non-default mappings:\\\\

3 $\rightarrow$ 2\hspace{1cm} 6 $\rightarrow$ 8\hspace{1cm} 7 $\rightarrow$
