The standalone build and the libretro core live in\ntwo repositories and share the same Engine.\n\nThe 16 KB system ROM is not a file. It is encoded in the\nVideo::sPixels image table compiled into the binary, one ROM bit per\nentry as bit 0 XOR bit 5 (ref: source/Data.cpp:2). The Engine\nconstructor copies that table into sMirror (ref: source/Engine.cpp:54)\nand Z80ReadW() rebuilds each ROM byte from eight table entries the\nfirst time the CPU reads it, caching it in mMemory\n(ref: source/Engine.cpp:379-389). The libretro core carries the same\ntable and decoder.\n\nThe libretro core can map a user cartridge file over 0x0000-0x3FFF\nwhen one is configured (ref: source/Engine.cpp:302-316), and that file is\ncontent. The on-screen display font is an Ubuntu TTF from the host\nsystem fonts directory (ref: source/Video.cpp:90-92).\n",
