I'm trying to find an application that would let me select a rom and all the files pertaining to that game in one step.
Example: I pick a game in the 80's folder (I use mame32), and would like only that game and all the other files that go with it (pics, artwork, samples), so I can burn only the games I own to one CD, without going through all the folders looking for all the info.
Anyone know of a tool like this?
Thanks for your time.

I wrote a utilty exactly like that into Kymaera. You can create a GameList, and then click "resource copy".
Kymaera will copy all the roms,snaps,marquees,cabinets,etc.... to a destination folder and preserve the directory structure. I was using it to set up a limited list of games on my new cabinet.
Unfortunately, it's not in the current release, but it'll be in the next.

Cool... nice lookin Front End. Let me know when you get it updated, it sounds like just what I'm lookin for.
I haven't looked at Front Ends for awhile, I guess I should start :)

A new release should be on it's way very soon. I just ported Kymaera to Dos and Linux, and I'm tyeing up some loose ends with it and testing.
