Super Mario Bros 3 (U) (PRG 1).zip ---> Super Mario Bros 3
Asteriods Deluxe (rev 2) ---> Asteriods Deluxe
Possible Minwah? I would greatly appreciate it!

This is already there set by default for MAME (generate a custom list and see). The option is 'Display Clone Info (in Custom Lists)'.
I don't think it works with [square brackets], and for your Mario example I think it would only remove the last set of bracketed text, ie 'Super Mario Bros 3 (US)'. Shouldn't be too hard for me to improve on this...

Yeah I am keen to add this for my 360 wheel panel, I don't think it will make it into this next release - hopefully the one after if all goes well...

My request is really simple, and if its already in there somewhere, please tell me how to enable it. I would like to limit the number of games that are automatically added to the FAVORITES list. My 4-year-old will play anything and everything so there are like 300 games on the favorites list. I'd like to limit it to the top 20 or some user-configurable number.

Oooh, yeah that's a great idea.. And then if you configured it for a max of '0' it would be unlimited, or something. I see this as a potential maintenance problem in about a years time of playing my arcade..

Sounds like it shouldn't be too difficult...
Just an update on my progress: I've done just about all I intend to for this release now, except for a few finishing off things. Hopefully I should be ready to upload a new version tomorrow (Sat) :)
