Generic command line wrapper 7.0 problem (and workaround)?
« on: April 06, 2004, 02:45:30 pm »
First off, let me state to everyone that the Howard_Casto's Generic Command Line Wrapper is by far the easiest thing to set up that he's ever created (well, that I've tried anyway).

  Though, there seems to be a common problem when 'delimeter=-' in the lconfig.ini file AND there's a dash ('-') in the ROM filename.  VirtuaNES, for example complains with a weird error message saying it can't find the ROM file, even though the path information in the error message looks okay.

 I was able to work around this by changing 'delimeter=-' to 'delimeter= -' (that's delimiter=<space>-). F Y I.

Peace and extra chicken grease.

Yeah, or alternatively if you aren't actually using the delimeter for anything, you can set it to a useless character like ? or #.  Since those are "illegal characters" for filenames they will never show up so no worries.  

It's what I do anyway.
