Every system that runs from its SD card comes from card_setups(),
derived from the device rules: the setup list, its filter, --platform
and the line menus give each its own row and ask for its card. The
RetroArch row no longer lists handheld systems.
card_root_folder and card_choice share one identity check: another
system's card is refused for every system, KNULLI and ROCKNIX included,
and the same --dest gives the same folder from every entry point. WSL
drive letters are read as typed, the line question lists only that
system's cards and asks again after no.
Offline at a terminal, files left out count as missing: the run ends
with code 1 or 2, as the full screen does. Continue on the systems list
opens Confirm. Wording and layout points of code_audit_13 and
tui_audit_6.
A stop by SIGTERM (Start+Select under gptokeyb) reads the summary like
Ctrl-C and prints the count on disk. The systems filter keeps the ticks
and the focus. The bar names what A does on the focused row. Options
check the folder again, a missing network fails in 15 s with plain words,
an unwritable folder offers another one, a folder inside a card offers
its root, and only a failure keeps its log.
New event kind: checking, with files_done and files_total, while the
files in place are hashed. The exact event lists of the check and
install runs now carry two of them, for the two files in place.
A bare install at a terminal of 40x12 or more opens a full screen that a
keyboard or a controller mapped to keys drives: setup, plan, install in
three presses, systems, regions, cores, game data, folder browser and a
dry-run preview one press away. The installer runs itself as a child with
--events for every check and install, the file list fetched once and
handed over with --manifest. --tui asks for it, --plain, RETROBIOS_PLAIN
and ACCESSIBLE keep the line questions.
