It's been ages since I've posted here, and sorry to have to ask for help (again).

Here's the setup:

I've just started getting those AMAZING doujin shooters, and wanted to launch them from MameWah. I can figure out that part .. but; In order to re-map some keyboard buttons, I use GlovePIE .. which can be launched from a command line. I created a GlovePIE script file named "EtherVapor.pie", which I want to run before the actual game is launched.

How can I do this via MameWAH? From the GlovePIE docs:

Quote
If you run PIE from the command prompt or a shortcut then you can specify command line parameters. You must use quotation marks around any parameter which includes a space.
filename.PIE
The name of a PIE script to open. You may or may not include the .PIE extension. The script will not do anything until you choose "Run" from the "Run!" menu.

-filename.PIE
The name of a PIE script to open and run. You may or may not include the .PIE extension. It will start running automatically

/r:filename.EXE
The name of a .EXE file or other program to start running automatically when PIE starts. This allows you to start the game and PIE at the same time.

Thanks for reading this, and sorry for being such a n00b. Been so busy with work and other real life™ stuff, dont have a lot of free time to scour the net reasearching.

Edit: got it to work...

pre_emulator_app_commandlines      c:\glovePIE.exe -doujin.pie{nowait}{autoquit}

... now if only I could re-name those shortcuts :)

So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."
