Third-Party Licenses

This file inventories every third-party component JoeyLib depends on, either at runtime (linked into the produced binaries) or at build / test time. Components are grouped by role; within each group entries list the platforms that consume the component, the upstream URL, and the license.

When upstream license terms change, update the corresponding row here.

---

Runtime libraries (linked into joeylib output binaries)

These ship as part of, or are linked into, an executable built by JoeyLib. License compatibility for these matters most.

libxmp-lite

• Used on: DOS, Atari ST
• URL: https://github.com/libxmp/libxmp
• License: MIT
• Role: ProTracker / Amiga MOD replayer + SMIX SFX overlay. Linked into AUDIO binaries on the chunky-display platforms.
• Vendored at: toolchains/audio/libxmp-lite/

NinjaTrackerPlus (NTP)

• Used on: Apple IIgs
• URL: https://www.ninjaforce.com/html/products_software.html (downloads from https://www.ninjaforce.com/downloads/)
• License: No explicit license in the source distribution; written by Jesse Blue (NinjaForce). Treated here as free for use; consult upstream before commercial redistribution.
• Role: Apple IIgs Ensoniq DOC .NTP module replayer + SFX streamer. Merlin32-assembled and linked into the AUDIO binary as bytes (see make/iigs.mk $(NTP_HEADER) rule).
• Vendored at: toolchains/iigs/ntp/ninjatrackerplus.s (source); build product baked into examples/audio AUDIO binary.

PTPlayer

• Used on: Amiga
• URL: http://aminet.net/mus/play/ptplayer.lha (author Frank Wille, http://aminet.net/package/mus/play/ptplayer)
• License: Public Domain
• Role: ProTracker MOD replayer + mt_playfx SFX channel for the Paula audio HAL.
• Vendored at: toolchains/amiga/ptplayer/

Build-time toolchains (NOT linked, used to produce binaries)

These run on the developer's machine to compile / assemble / link JoeyLib for each target. They are not redistributed inside the produced game binaries.

Golden Gate (host tools: iix, profuse, mkfs-profuse, dumpobj)

• Used on: Apple IIgs
• URL: https://golden-gate.ksherlock.com/ (publisher / store: https://juiced.gs/store/golden-gate/)
• License: Commercial software by Kelvin Sherlock, distributed through Juiced.GS / Gamebits. End-user purchase required; redistribution not permitted.
• Role: Cross-host harness that runs ORCA-style IIgs tools on a modern OS. Provides the iix shell, the OMF linker, profuse (ProDOS FUSE mount), mkfs-profuse, dumpobj, and the IIgs-side filesystem image ($GOLDEN_GATE) that the harness emulates.
• Distribution: Not redistributed by JoeyLib. Each developer must bring their own purchased copy. toolchains/install.sh builds host tools from a developer-supplied source checkout under stuff/GoldenGate/ (the stuff/ tree is gitignored) and stages the IIgs filesystem from a developer-supplied gg-linux.tgz. The resulting toolchains/iigs/gg-tools/ and toolchains/iigs/goldengate/ trees are gitignored.

ORCA/C compiler + ORCA libraries

• Used on: Apple IIgs
• URL: https://github.com/byteworksinc/ORCA-C (commercial distribution: https://juiced.gs/store/opus-ii/)
• License: Commercial product by The Byte Works, Inc. (Mike Westerfield). Source code is published on GitHub under a custom license that grants only private use, fork, and modification; redistribution in any form other than submission back to the upstream repo requires written permission. Commercial rights remain with Byte Works; the compiler is sold today as part of the Opus ][ collection via Juiced.GS.
• Role: ANSI C compiler for the 65816 + Apple IIgs runtime libraries. Run via Golden Gate's iix harness.
• Distribution: Not redistributed by JoeyLib. ORCA support files arrive as part of the developer-supplied Golden Gate / Opus ][ install bundle and land inside the gitignored toolchains/iigs/goldengate/ tree.

Merlin32

• Used on: Apple IIgs
• URL: https://brutaldeluxe.fr/products/crossdevtools/merlin/
• License: Freely distributed by Brutal Deluxe Software (Olivier Zardini, Antoine Vignau). Source published with no formal open-source license header — Brutal Deluxe's "open source philosophy" but copyright is retained. Treat as "free to use, redistribute as part of a build chain; ask before forking commercially."
• Role: 65816 cross-assembler. Builds NinjaTrackerPlus.
• Vendored at: toolchains/iigs/merlin32/

Bebbo m68k-amigaos GCC toolchain

• Used on: Amiga
• URL: https://github.com/AmigaPorts/m68k-amigaos-gcc
• License: GNU GPL v2 (gcc, binutils, libnix); per-component copyrights listed in upstream README.md. Includes assets covered by individual permissive notices (Roadshow, fd2pragma public domain, ira freeware, etc.).
• Role: AmigaOS HUNK-format gcc + binutils + libnix used to compile the Amiga port and link against PTPlayer.
• Vendored at: toolchains/amiga/gcc/

vasm

• Used on: Amiga (PTPlayer only)
• URL: http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vasm/
• License: vasm custom license — © Volker Barthelmann; free for non-commercial use, plus an explicit commercial-use exception for M68k + AmigaOS targets (see vasm distribution README). Other commercial use requires written permission. JoeyLib's only remaining vasm invocation is ptplayer.asm on the Amiga path, which falls under the M68k+AmigaOS exception.
• Role: Assemble third-party ptplayer.asm (Frank Wille's Devpac/vasm-syntax source). Our own .s files are GAS syntax and go through m68k-amigaos-as (binutils, GPL) instead.
• Vendored at: toolchains/amiga/vasm/

m68k-atari-mint GCC toolchain (Thorsten Otto builds)

• Used on: Atari ST
• URL: https://tho-otto.de/download/mint/ (gcc upstream: GNU; mintlib: https://github.com/freemint/mintlib)
• License: GNU GPL v2 (gcc, binutils); mintlib is a mix of GPL and permissive (per-file headers).
• Role: GEMDOS-native gcc + binutils + mintlib used to compile the Atari ST port.
• Vendored at: toolchains/atarist/gcc/

DJGPP (build-djgpp packaging)

• Used on: DOS
• URL: https://github.com/andrewwutw/build-djgpp (DJGPP upstream: http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/)

• Role: Stubbed-into-binary DPMI server for DJGPP-compiled DOS executables (via embed-dpmi.sh).

Maintenance

When adding a new third-party dependency:

1. Append a row in the appropriate section above.
2. Record platform(s), upstream URL, license name, and a one-line role description.
3. If the dependency is vendored, list the path under toolchains/.
4. If license terms restrict redistribution, call that out explicitly (as we do for Apple ROMs).
