Summary MESS-specific 07726: t1000rl, t1000sl2: ROM DeskMate fails to load
Description The Tandy 1000 RL and SL/2 models have DeskMate (Tandy's GUI interface) built into the system ROM. See e.g. https://archive.org/details/Tandy1000SL2InstalationAndOperationManual/page/n9/mode/2up

However, when you try to load the built-in DeskMate in MAME, the systems hang indefinitely at a black screen with a blinking cursor.
Steps To Reproduce 1. mame t1000rl
2. Wait for the boot process to start DeskMate automatically
3. DeskMate version information is displayed, followed by a hang

1. mame t1000sl2
2. Wait for the built-in ROM DOS to boot
3. Press F12 at the DOS prompt to start DeskMate
4. DeskMate version information is displayed for a split second, followed by a hang

The driver is actually tandy1t.cpp, at least in my research.
