Supports peripherals: CMT (MZF/MZT/TAP/WAV), FDC WD279x, Quick Disk, ramdisks (MR1R18, Pezik variants), memory extensions, Unicard and IDE8.

Integrated Z80 debugger with inline assembler, memory browser and breakpoints.
Snapshot system for saving/loading complete emulator state (.mzs archives).
Virtual keyboard, autotype, joystick support, variable speed control.

GUI localized into 10 languages. Alternative ROM sets (JSS, WILLY) included.
