Mess MDV files - could be the same format of ZX Spectrum MDV files. MDV format is used on some ZX emulators, I wonder if MESS took over ZX spectrum MDV file specification...

I found a FAQ page about this. No wonder I couldn't get it to work, assuming the text below is up to date. At least the Save State command works, so you can save what you were doing and resume later. No way that I can see to get files in and out of this as yet, since MDV mounting doesn't yet work. Seems promising as an emulator, but until this part gets sorted out it may not prove pratical as an emulator until we can figure out how to get files in and out.

"ToDo:

- microdrive simulation
- RTC register write
- serial data latching?
- transmit interrupt timing
- interface interrupt
- accurate screen timings
- ZX8301 cycle stealing
- emulate COMCTL properly
- emulate microdrive properly
- get modified Danish version to boot (e.g. MD_DESEL was patched to jump to 0x1cd5e)"
