Summary	06294: mz80kj: Enable existing CG with uppercase letters !
Description	The "mz80kj" driver currently uses only CG with lowercase letters ! In the MESS driver "mz80.cpp" on lines 356,357 already exists CG with a uppercase letters, but is disabled. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 356 // This has a different Japanese set 357 ROM_LOAD( "80kcgj.rom", 0x0800, 0x0800, CRC(7767f11e) SHA1(8dc88d088b2e7d3198bf856bd44d364fb6e5cfa4) ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This CG has the same CRC(7767f11e) as one mentioned on the sharpmz.org: http://sharpmz.org/mz-80k/dldrom.htm ! ( It looks that the disabled CG is actually from the "MZ-80K2E" version, an alt version of Jpn. mz80k ! ) So, if one would like to use the CG with an uppercase letters, instead of one with a lowercase letters, this is currently not possible. If we would like to change this, there are IMHO two possibilities: The one would be to make it possible which CG directly from the "mz80kj" driver menu, or maybe better, make a new clone driver "mz80k2e" that contains only the CG ! Note: MZ-80K, MZ-80K2 and MZ-80K2E are practically the same, so it should not be a problem. A little detailed information regarding MZ-80K2E that could solve the dilemma (if there): http://www.asamomiji.jp/kemusiro/index.php?MZ-80K2E http://www.akamoz.jp/you/konjaku/mz80/whatsmz.htm
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Information	I found most mz80k from Jpn. use CG with uppercase letters, what can be also visible on the MZ-80K brochures from the Sharp museum: http://retropc.net/ohishi/museum/mz80k.htm ,,, there are no lowercase letters visible even on the prototype brochures ! So I wonder, from which mz80k Jpn. version comes CG with lowercase letters !? :-)
