There must be a tool out there that allows us to search our ROM's and sort/filter them base on controls used. Like 4-way joy or 8-way joy...number of buttons.
Can someone tell me what software will do that?
I tried ClrMamePro but not quite what I wanted.

Use a FE and use custom filtered lists to do this...
Note MW cannot filter on no. buttons, I suspect DK and some others can.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot.
Let me tell you guys what I'll trying to do, maybe there is another solution to my problem.
I'm building a cocktail cab for old games like Ms Pacman and such. I need to know what games uses 4 way, and of those, what is the max buttons I'll need. 2, 3, or 4?
I'm setting up the cab with modular CP.
4-way, 8-way figher style, trackball/spinner.
I would like to group/filter the games so that only
the games that are meant to be played on a particular CP will show up.

You could try SortInfo (http://hem.passagen.se/robert.palmqvist/Downloads/downloads.html), it's what I used to make the vertical/horizontal sorting BAT's on my site (http://mame.joymonkey.com).
But as a lot of people will tell you, SortInfo gets its information from Mame's ListInfo, which is not entirely accurate controls-wise. I think it's still a good place to start though.
