You have to update your roms unless you want to go on a wild goose chase looking for a emu that'll actually support those crazy, hacked-up roms you have. That is why I said to use mame. Until mame added support all the roms were hacks that ran in the other emus. The only way to run the games properly is to use the updated mame roms, which probably aren't going to work on neorage due to the fact they are encrypted and it is frikkin 5 years old.
So like I said, use mame and be happy. Once you get the roms, of course, you can use winkawaks and nebula, but I don't know why you would as they aren't exactly command-line friendly.

I don't know why when I give an answer I have to go back and re-explain myself, people would save themselves a lot of time if they would just do what I suggest.
