Mamewah - Execute app on mamewah start

[MrQuan]

Hi I'm using Mamewah 1.61 and would like to start an app I wrote when mamewah starts.  (Basically it counts everytime '5' is pressed so I can see how many credits I use

I've noticed the "app_to_run_on_exit" setting in mamewah.ini, is there an equivalent setting but to run on start?  Mamewah is running as my shell under Windows XP, so I can't just throw the second app in the Startup folder.

Does anyone know the solution please? (Do I need to upgrade to 1.62 to do this?)

Could you set a bat file as your shell and have both apps, yours and MameWAH called from the bat file? Also, the option is there in the latest beta. Here is the section from the mamewah.ini file.

### External Application Settings ###
startup_app_commandlines                 
exit_app_commandlines                     
exit_and_run_app_commandlines             

Enjoy,
John
