hmm using the pipe "|" is a unix command and will not work under windows/dos, and where can I find the program xml2info... Do you have an equivalent windows/dos command that will work?

What the???
Pipe works just fine in DOS6, Win98 (DOS7), FreeDOS, and true Win32 (win2k/xp).
How about you try it out before telling me I'm wrong. I do this sort of command-line stuff for a living, you know. ;D Not only that, but I tested the above steps on a WinXP box before hitting "post" to make sure I wasn't giving you dud info. Did you test them yourself? Doesn't sound like it.
"xml2info.exe" is included in every standard mame release since the xml output was invented. Open your eyes and have a look!
I do hope you're pulling my leg... :o
MiKman:
hmm strange xml2info isn't in my mame32 release, I can't say that I have ever seen it... I guess I'll go looking for it.

We have a MAME machine at our office and, I kid you not, HAT TRICK gets something like 95% of the playing time.

I did try it and it failed on that command, I wasn't just guessing that it wouldn't work really I wasn't :-) lol ( The pipe was a guess tho :angel: )

Grab the official MAME release (as opposed to MAME32). It's definitely in there.
