Autogenerating mala game lists

[raungst]

I have a plan to use the Hyperspin XML files to generate game lists for each genre for the many consoles I have on my cab. It looks like I can use MalaGamelist to create the lists, and use name list files as the input (this is one of the menu items). I would parse the Hyperspin XML files to generate the name list files.

My question is: is there any command line arguments or anyway to automate MalaGamelist? I would want to be able to input a name list file, a list name, and an output filename. Is anything like this possible, or do I need to use the menus in MalaGamelist to generate these many lists?

Thanks for any help.

I would chat to the author of this thread.
