There are cheats for these computer systems:
coco2b, coco3, ti99_4a

(You can copy the coco2b.xml to coco2.xml etc and it should work; not
tested yet.)
(The 'ti99_4a.json' file is here for an example of how to make .json files
if you want to.)



ENABLE THE "CHEAT"/"CHEAT FINDER" MENU OPTIONS!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use the newest version of MAME/MESS.

1. For MAMEUI64:  Click "Options", "Default System Options", click the
     "Misc" tab, click "Enable cheats" (it may be on the "Debug" tab),
     click "Ok".  Exit MAMEUI64.
   For MAME Command-Line:  Edit "MAME\ini\mame.ini".  Change "cheat 0"
     to "cheat 1".

2. To get to the standard MAME UI, from a Command Prompt type:
   (For MAME Command-Line substitute "mame" for "mameui64".)
   "mameui64 ___empty"       (Note the 3 underscores.)

3. Double-click the "Plugins" option (above "Exit").  Double-click the
   "Cheat plugin" and the "Cheat finder helper library" so they are
   both ON.  Double-click "Return to previous menu".  Exit MAME.



TO USE THESE CHEATS:
------------------------------------
1. Copy the included .xml and/or .json files into your "\MAME\cheat\"
   directory.

2. When you want to use the Cheat Finder, start MAME with one of these:
  (For MAME Command-Line substitute "mame" for "mameui64".)
  "mameui64"   (Goes to the UI like normal), or
  "mameui64 ___empty"   (Goes into the standard MAME UI), or
  "mameui64 -debug -cheat romname"   (Goes directly into game/computer
        system with the debugger on; turning debugger on is optional).

3. For the .xml cheats, press [Tab] and go to the "Cheat" menu.
   They are in the "Plugin Options", "Cheat" menu also (i.e. the second
   "Cheat" menu).

4. For the .json cheats, press [Tab] and go to "Plugin Options", then
   "Cheat" (i.e. the second "Cheat" menu).


Enjoy!
