Which Control Panel Software is Best For My Needs?

[shredso]

I see 4 possible candidates on the BYOAC wiki, and rather than spend a ton of time trying each one I was hoping someone could help me narrow my choices down.  I would like to be able to see what buttons do in a game preferably from a pause in mame.  I'm using Mala.  I dont want to have to start a separate program, unless i can set it to start with windows like Mala.  The option of seeing a rule set or game description is also cool.  Those are likely the only features I would use.  What is my best choice factoring in ease of setup, stability, something anyone could figure out once configured, etc.?  Thanks.

I'm using CPWizard with MaLa, and it does everything you mentioned. And it can either run as a background process, waiting for you to hit Pause, or you can export bezels that mame itself can show when you hit Pause. With the bezel one you have to patch the mame source and compile it, but that's so easy nowadays with headkaze's Mame Compiler (same guy that makes CPWizard).
