The Windows port of MESS is now up to version 0.88. Changes in this version include the incorporation of MAME v0.88 and a new GUI for Imgtool. Here's the full list:
      New System Drivers Supported:
    • Dragon Alpha
      System Driver Changes:
    • COCO: Fixed a bug in DMK disk loading (games encoded with certain forms of copy protection now run)
    • MICROBEE: Added natural language support
    • MICROBEE: Added multi screen support
      Imgtool Changes:
    • Created a new Windows GUI for Imgtool
    • Added an 'identify' command that can be used to attempt to identify the type of any given image
    • Preliminary CoCo OS-9 disk image module
      Source Changes:
    • The core is based on MAME 0.88
    • Fixed a latent problem where part of the natural language system still thought that we use 16-bit ports
    • Fixed a bug in core floppy handling that prevented writes to CoCo DMK images from working
    • Removed mess/snprintf.c and mess/snprintf.h
