Summary MESS-specific 06297: mz80a: MZ-80A had a green-screen VDU !
Description Current emulation of mz80a has a white-screen VDU, but in reality every MZ-80A had a green-screen VDU !

An example: http://www.old-computers.com/MUSEUM/photos/Sharp_MZ80A_Running_s1.jpg

Can something be done in order to achieve historically more accurate model ? (thanks)
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Information Small reminder:

MZ-80K / K2 / K2E have a white VDU, and
MZ-80C, MZ-80A, MZ-1200 have a green VDU.

(Currently MZ-80C and MZ-1200 are not emulated in MESS !)
..
In comparison with MZ-80K, the MZ-80C was finished product equipped with 48KB, typewriter type keyboard and a green VDU.
So, according to this, only a green VDU is missing in current mz80kj emu to get a mz80c.

Also, MZ-1200 is basically MZ-80A with MZ-80K2E CG, SP-1002 monitor and Jpn. keyboard matrix.
(but without hardware scroll and reverse screen display of the MZ-80A)

Video MZ-1200 info: http://www.suwa-koubou.jp/micom/MZ80Emulator/video.c

Also, MZ-80K / C / K2 / K2E / 1200 are Jpn. versions and MZ-80K / 80A are European versions.
