Is there any way to exit any emu with the same key press? I use player 2 and right flipper to exit mame and would like to use this to exit all emu's. With hyperspin i used hyperlaunch which did the job, I thought that there might be a similar app to use with mala.

I'll have a look see, cheers. ok got that, now i cant quite figure out how to use it, you put the closemul.exe in the same folder as the emu but how do you get it to work?

depends what your right flipper button is as you need the ascii code.
player 2 is 50 so in Mala under other emus, Executable, lets say its Pinball.exe
you put c:\Path to your pinball\Closemul.exe 50 number of right flipper Pinball.exe

Why not just use 'esc'? The emu's that cant respond to this button can be forced to to this by enable the mala close hook. I use the button 'Q' to close down mala altogether. I have 40 layouts/emus and all the one that dont have a build in esc  respond to the mala 'esc' hook for ending.
