Generating MaLa gamelists for non-MAME emulators 'RomDir2XML'

Guess this link will never be alive again :(

Draugr:
Does anyone have a copy of this file that they can post so we can get a copy of it? This program addresses the problem I am currently having with gamelists for systems other than MAME.

Thanks,
John

Bumping for the RomDir2XML program. Someone out there has to have it.

NOP:
for what it's worth, I've attempted to duplicate romdir2xml inside of romlister.  Since I never had the original program (or I've lost it by now) I cannot be sure that it's the same thing, but what I've done does appear to work to create lists for several FEs for generic, non MAME ROM sets.

kind of unofficially added to RL until I get some more feedback that it is working ok.

This works but leaves me empty of data (year/manuf). So I imported a (fixed for RL) HyperSpin xml to test and found out that your syntax for "minigames" did not match catver "mini-games" and gets missed. When I export to Mala gamelist I get "not used" entries when I have entries in the xml that cover gamelist data that the template supports. I have another thread open trying to figure out how to get emulator data into Mala like HS and GameEx. This gets me a step closer to creating (static) gamelists, but I need the genre/year/manuf/description/etc. in them as well.

Is there a reason the xml is malformed? needs RL header with odd bracket (]>) and no close xml at end (/romdir2xml).
