The MSX part of the Batocera page now cites every reader of the blueMSX
and fMSX machine ROMs (c62515a78, 26c71d03d): 34 KB of links that are
the content. Measured on the gate build of 7c5ad8366.
Tiles read "BizHawkWindows, Linux", stats "168/168Coverage" and a
file row "SVI603.ROMbios/Machines/...OK": the stylesheet lays them
out as boxes, the markup had no space between them. A setup without a
logo draws its initials from the stylesheet, so its name is read once.
A filter box read "Filter Options41 rows" in the page text and the
file picker an empty "Setup Choose a setup": both do nothing without
the script. They are written hidden, keep their room so nothing moves,
and site.ts or the picker's script shows them. The count describes the
input and is spaced from the label. One box markup for the build and
the generator, and the Markdown copy skips hidden chrome.
A query word matches the start of a longer word. Since the index grew,
the "2" of "playstation 2 bios" matched the 2026 of every page's date
line and the "u" of "wii u bios" the "use" of Next steps, so the
PlayStation and Nintendo pages held every query word and ranked above
the PlayStation 2 and Wii U pages. Both blocks carry
data-pagefind-ignore now: search_gate answers 58 of 58 queries, the
four console pairs by 9 to 14 percent. Batocera's pages weigh 882
bytes more for it.
The Batocera pages name its Amiberry build twice, now as 'Amiberry
8.0.0 (facaaeb, Batocera)': 20 more bytes each on the 1,356,360
measured at 27c33b966, so the byte budget is 1,356,400.
Batocera's pages now name the cores its x86_64 RetroArch downloads.
Each file lists every core reading it with its citations, the Game
Boy Advance going from 4 readers to 10, and Elektronika BK, FM Towns
and Nintendo DS passed the part budget. On the gate's built site at
27c33b966 the platform weighs 13 pages, 15,662 elements (under the old
18,854) and 1,356,360 bytes, 145,243 more than the 1,211,117 recorded.
The page and byte budgets take those measured values.
tests/__init__.py keeps a run offline, its scratch under tmp/ and its
installer cache its own, but only discover -s tests -t . imported it.
discover tests ran with RETROBIOS_OFFLINE unset, scratch on the /tmp
tmpfs and the user's real installer cache, the setting in which e2e
fixtures had written into the shared .cache/large. Every test module now
imports the package first, and a test fails on a module that does not.
test_verify_listing.py took its line with the previous commit.
RetroPie was the only platform with status: archived, which kept it out
of verify --all, slots, the pipeline and list_platforms unless
--include-archived was typed. release_pack already decides which packs a
release publishes and the installer serves every platform, so the status
set nothing apart. The field, its schema entry and the flag are gone, and
RetroPie is covered by every full run like any other platform.
Merging the card and platform branches left two SHORT_HASH definitions, 8 and 12. The later one silently won, so the platform rows showed 12 characters while their tests expected 8. One constant now, 12, the card anchor's length. The copy-button selector skips buttons that carry their own data-copy, and the tests follow the merged markup.
Each file is a details whose summary is the row: name, folder when it is not the bare name, status chip. The short hash sits on one copy button beside it, since a summary is itself a control. Opened, the evidence runs across the list. A list with no folder drops the column. Code spans in the evidence are plain text.
The lists split by the share of a page they render to (elements against 10,000, bytes against 600,000) instead of Markdown length. With its parts, Batocera goes from 12 pages, 18,854 elements and 1.21 MB to 10 pages, 13,671 and 1.11 MB. A part that folds back into its platform page redirects there, from the record in website/src/data/platform-parts.json.
Each file of a platform list is one row: name, folder, status chip, a short hash on a button that copies it whole, and a details cell. The details hold every declared hash, the size, the served copy and the readers. A reference's role is one word (glue, port, upstream, build) defined once in a legend instead of a phrase after every reference.
Visible words: Batocera 2,433 to 2,332, AmberELEC 1,301 to 1,299, RomM 1,607 to 1,596, RetroArch 2,207 to 2,088, RetroDECK arcade part 2 19,127 to 2,104. Rows weigh more Markdown, so 38 more systems move to pages of their own under the existing budgets.
