i was hoping to one day work on something similar to a jr emulator if i knew the rules that the thing ran by..  i was thinking of doing this one of two different ways.. one is either by using my xl emulator to show the data, and or use a hardware box  called x-bob from decade engineering to display the text

I could be possible to build the Jr. emulator from the same programing codes that the 4000 emulator is built from.

Maybe it uses Visual Basic or something? I think thats what the program was built from.

And no, it uses the .NET framework, which is not the same as VB.  :no:
