New version emulator ZEsarUX 3.1

Hi

I have uploaded a new version of my emulator ZEsarUX on


I have improved accessibility support, now all the menu texts and the texts generated on Spectrum are sent to a text to speech programs, on all operating systems supported by the emulator. It permits to blind people to use the emulator and play for example text adventures. I had the help of some people at CAAD forums, specially Sukil Etxenike, who even created an audio guide to use the emulator and scripts to interact with screen readers.
I also have added SD/MMC emulation: on Spectrum and ZX-Uno, ZXMMC and DivMMC. And for ZX-81, ZXPand interface
And I also have added Spectra and Timex video modes emulation
I have to remember that apart from the binary versions I compile: Linux Debian, Windows, Mac and Raspbian, there are also ports made by other people for Arch Linux, Retropie and Open Pandora.
I hope you like it. The complete Changelog is:
