MasterGear is a Sega Master System/Game Gear emulator.  The OS/2 version is
available at:

http://www.geocities.com/~spiceware

Version 1.0.3 features 
 o The pause key (backspace) for Master System Games now works. 
 o New run-time parameter -t for controlling the TV rate (50 or 60 fps). 
 o New run-time parameter -v for master volume control. 
 o MasterGear/2 Help is now in the OS/2 standard format. 
 o Frame skipping routines have been modified to better support "flickering
    sprites" effects, such as when Sonic The Hedgehog has a shield.
 o Additional firebutton keys mapped for joystick 1 for German keyboards(may
    work with others).
 o MasterGear/2 Help and Game Documentation support now work correctly when
    the path to the file contains a space.
