mamewah list genetation question

[reko19]

I am setting up z26 atari 2600 emulator with mamewah 1.62. The z26 ROMs have some weird characters at the end of the filename (exclamation points, brackets, etc.) When I generate a list from Mamewah, these characters become part of the list.  The game name don't correspond to my preview snaps, so I have to edit filename manually.  Is there any way to generate a list that only includes the game name, short of editing the list file manually? Thank you.

What are these characters doing there? Are they Good-named? eg 'Game Name [J] [!]'?

Either way, set fuzzy_search 1 in your emulator.ini file - that should help display the snaps.

You can also use a custom list, and it will by default trim the crap off the end of the game names.

Here is an example

128-in-1 Junior Console (Chip 1) (PAL) [!].zip

What is a good name  [!] ?

What is a good name  [!] ? 

Um, a system developed which can manage roms using dat files.  Usually using some software called GoodTools.  But yes that looks like what you have - see my first reply, that should all apply.

thank you, fuzzy_search 1 works

Just an FYI, those [!], (J), (UE) flags and things are from the TOSEC naming standards.
