Tassos,
Daniele Terdina still supplies an older version of his QEmulator for MacOS that can be run on PPC Macs (using the 68k emulation).

See
http://www.terdina.net/ql/MacQL.html
(Watch the small print to find the PPC version)

Regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias, unfortunately my G5 runs on Leopard 10.5 which did not support the Classic environment so the 68K emulator is a no go for me any other suggestions?
Thanks

Tassos,
someone (can't recall the name, but seem to remember he was french, or french-canadian?) did a port of uqlx for Darwin. Not sure if that was ever complete, ran, or even compiled, but it might be worth a search.

You might want to have a look into this

thread.

No guarantees, though.

Regards,
Tobias

QemuLator Lite existed in versions for 68k and PowerPC macs.

There was also a port of uQLx to Mac by James Weatherley which at one time was on Phoebus Dokos's website. I think it was the same as the Mac uQLx on my emulators page.

If the Mac concerned is able to use Java 6 or 7, try also the new SMSQmulator from Wolfgang Lenerz
