Is there a way to permantly turn access extras in games

I know how to turn on the cheat dat, but Is there a way so that each time I play a fighter game like sfa3 where certain characters are hidden or time released can automatically be accessed.

I think so, but you will probably need to read through the cheat.c file (mame source) and edit the cheat.dat file to make it happen.

For reference, I know that Mame32k (the one with Kaillera support), enabled the marvel vs. capcom 'extra' characters from the start.  This was probably done with the mentioned cheat.c
