I can see the point about separating the Brazilian clone ROMs - in general I've followed the separation implied by general availability (i.e., what MESS does), but these are "new", so nobody's really started throwing the images around the Internet yet.
I'd rather have individual machines defined as well, but can certainly include a "cocobr" by default that searches all the .br clone ROMs that end up being available.
It makes sense to separate them because CoCo 1/2 BASIC is
always comprised of one 8K BASIC interpreter (Color BASIC 1.x) or two 8K BASIC interpreters (Color BASIC 1.x and Extended Color BASIC 1.x.) The Brazilian ROM images we have so far (with ROM images named as posted here at the Dragon forums by the original uploaders) are:
Color64
color64bas.rom
color64extbas.rom
MX1600
mx1600bas.rom
mx1600extbas.rom
CP-400
cp400bas.rom
cp400extbas.rom
cp400dsk.rom

In fact I'd like to do separate configs for all the proper CoCos too - but the sheer quantity of variants is a little confusing

Has anyone put together a list of all the different combinations "as sold"?
I have just compiled the following concise list of all Standard CoCo 1/2 models (as sold) and their Brazilian clones. I own some of the listed CoCo 1 models and
all of the CoCo 2 models, so I know that the list is mostly accurate. The only thing which may not be 100% correct is the information for the 26-3003 models.
