Auto GPWIZ49 mode switching in Mamewah

You can get it here.
It's my first-ever C++ project so go easy on me ;)
All it really does is take a map file (included in the .zip with info on controls.xml .88 and mame .92) and translates the input to a number compatible with gpwiz49.exe, then passes it to the gpwiz.exe specified in the (included) .ini file.
The map file is pretty simple:
<romname>=<control>
<control> is the short "constant" from the controls.dat project, with the addition of 'djoy4way' and 'joy49way'.
The newest ListGen.NET can generate this map file for you, or you can simply modify the default. As soon as I can figure out how to add the expat libraries to my IDE I'll make this a built-in function so you can create the map file with just this .exe.
*shrug* let me know if you have any problems...

hey screaming...
any bugs or errors come up using your program with the newer mamewah?...
screaming:
Nope! I use MAMEWAH 1.61 exclusively. Are you having issues?
(Actually, this program has nothing to do with MAMEWAH specifically, so it will work with anything.)

Hey Screaming,
Have you gotten this software switching to work properly with your program? I haven't been able to test it yet and I'd like to be able to include it in the Retroblast review of this product. Have you been able to test yet? I'll try to test it out tonight, although I'm using an older version of MameWah.
Cheers,
KenToad

I'm sorry.. I lost track somehow
What ever became of all of this?
Did MinWah ever take a look at this?
