Emulator that can run .po files?

I tried to play Catacomb for the Apple IIGS on AppleWin, but it couldn't run it. It was a .po file, which it couldn't run. Anyone know an emulator that can run .po files? (Google says MAME might be able to, but I only use that for Arcade games)

Softdisk cursor moving on its own?

I can't share a video, only this screenshot.

When viewing Softdisk Magazette issues, there's a cursor that you can control with the numpad. But when I have it open, the cursor moves ever so slightly down and right on its own when I'm not touching the keyboard. Does it always do that by itself, or is there something causing it do that?

Do you get this when trying to load a state using AppleWin?

It loads states for other games like Beyond Castle Wolfenstein just fine, but when I tried to load a state for Sylvan Idyll, it showed this. And it almost breaks the whole emulator, where it resets it, ejects the disks, and then I can't insert disks again, unless I load a state for another game.

Now, my theory is that it has something to do with Sylvan Idyll being in disk slot 2, where you need to have it inserted into the second slot for it to load.

I don't think it makes sense for Sprout to call Vee "outdated-tech", because keep in mind, Gardenview was shut down in 2002 according to the newspapers, and I think CRT televisions were still being actively used in the early 2000s. Even if the events of Dandy's World took place in a more modern time, because they've been locked inside Gardenview for so long, they likely wouldn't know much about newer technology like flat-screen TVs, or even smartphones.

But that's just my take on it. If you disagree, that's what comments are for.
