GoMMC software version 0.52 is now available. It's a 'quick'
(but stable) release that fixes a bug in the tools (see the
'Updates' file within the archive), and adds a thing or two.

Download the software from :

http://web.inter.nl.net/users/J.Kortink/home/hardware/gommc/gommc052.zip

and follow the same 'drill' as outlined on the 'guide' page

http://web.inter.nl.net/users/J.Kortink/home/hardware/gommc/guide.htm

(Updates is a text file, all others should be made available
on the machine, e.g. via a floppy, with load and execution
addresses set to &2000, then run MMCUP to update the software
on the card, hard-reset, and re-*MMCCONFIG, noting that indices
have been replaced with mnemonic names).

More improvements will follow soon, most notably a utility
to add discs to the MMC straight from floppy.

Quick docs for the *-commands :

MMCCONFIG
---------
On its own lists the configuration options and their values.
Followed by <name> <value> assigns <value> (1-byte decimal)
to configuration option <name>.

MMCDISC
-------
On its own assumes '*' for <name>. Followed by <name> (may
contain wildcards * and #) selects the named disc (or the
first matching the wildcarded spec).

MMCINFO
-------
Lists info.

MMCLIST
-------
On its own assumes '*' for <name>. Followed by <name> (may
contain wildcards * and #) lists the named disc (or all
discs matching the wildcarded spec).

MMCPREFIX
---------
Emulates '*DIR', sort of. Followed by <name prefix> (which
may be empty). The 'prefix' is what is prepended to the
name specified in *MMCDISC and *MMCLIST. For example, if
you have named a disc 'Acornsoft.Hopper', using *MMCPREFIX
Acornsoft. (note the trailing dot) would cause *MMCDISC
Hopper and *MMCLIST Hopper to match/find that disc.

MMCTOOL
-------
Tools can be run straight from the MMC (which avoids the
need to have e.g. a floppy with the tools on it in the
disc drive at all times). Use MMCATO to add a tool to
the MMC (e.g. MMCATO MMCADI1 ADI1, it's now named ADI1,
or make up your own name). Then where you'd usually do
'MMCADI1 BLAH Newdisc' you now do 'MMCTOOL ADI1 BLAH
Newdisc' instead.

Configuration options
---------------------
FSNR : the code of a filing system to auto-load (see guide).
FSRM : the sideways ROM slot to load it into (see guide).
LOPT : default 0, but if set to 1, *MMCLISTs MMC address and
	size, and disc type code (1 = DFS, 2 = ADFS).
LTYP : default 0, but if set to 1,2 or 3 *MMCLISTs filing
	systems, tools, and discs (as for 0) respectively.
ROM0 : default 0, set to 1 to 'unplug' ROM number 0.
ROM1 : default 0, set to 1 to 'unplug' ROM number 1.
...
ROMF : default 0, set to 1 to 'unplug' ROM number 15.

Have fun.
