Wow - I had no idea about MESS working for the IIgs.  I just tested it
out on a handful of games, and it's weird - it seems to emulate more
smoothly (i.e., fewer sound glitches), but also less predictably
(several game which run fine under KEGS crash in MESS).

Also, I can get MESS to work fine through the MESS frontend, but not
with a commandline (which is what I'd need to get it to work with MY
frontend).  A normal MESS commandline for, say, supervision would look
like:

     mess.exe svision -cart c:\mess\software\svision\alien.zip

My guess is that the GS is using a different command other than "-
cart".  Anyone know of a way to find out what command string the MESS
UI is passing the the MESS executable?
