Abdessamad Derraz e8e2215a49 fix: clear the raw error flag on each run
--verbose set it and no run cleared it, so a later run in the same process ended its clock message with the raw SSL text. Also: --target named again in its refusal, three names mypy read as another type, a semicolon and a tooling file named in test comments.

Abdessamad Derraz b82c4be6c9 fix: say what to act on by default
Five lines the default text hid are back where the user reads them:
- the result names each failed file again, after Exit too;
- a run, --check, the plan and the result count the files an emulator
  needs that are not available here, --verbose or Details naming them;
- --check names each copy that fails its check, the files that sit too
  deep and what a run copies, and says such a copy is backed up; only
  the plain missing files wait on --verbose;
- the plan and the result keep the count of save files left out and the
  remedy, the reason going to Details;
- the plan counts the --from files that could not be read where no row
  names them, and says another drive to add.

Exit codes are unchanged. The result's word budget rises by the failed
file line.

Abdessamad Derraz fcb64e3857 feat: full screen keeps its notes on Details
The plan, Confirm and the result say what happens, its size, where and
the next step. Their counts, free space, backup and save notes, kinds,
reasons a file is left out, per-file failures and commands move to a
Details screen: d on the plan, Confirm and the result, the Details row
on the plan, Y, o or Tab on the result. Opened on the result, they are
also said in the terminal after Exit. Installing lists the files that
went well only with --verbose, and --verbose draws every line in place.
The log line reads Log: so that Details names one thing.

--check prints its count, the folder and the remedy in both modes, so
that --verbose prints every default line. Each golden screen gets a word
budget per size, and a test proves the screen and its Details together
equal the --verbose screen.

Abdessamad Derraz 36745abf10 feat: line mode says details only with --verbose
By default a run prints what it installs, the BIOS folder, the progress
at a terminal, the result and the next step. The steps, the per-file log
lines, the counts and the reasons a file is left out come back with
--verbose. --check gives the count and the folder, and lists each file
with --verbose. The installer page shows the default run and walks
through the --verbose one.

Abdessamad Derraz e4f8bb336a fix: read a wrapped BIOS folder line whole
A long checkout path wraps "BIOS folder:" after the label, and the
test joined the lines without the space it dropped. It now compares
without spaces, which holds for either wrap point.

Abdessamad Derraz a02d30f90c fix: wait for the Confirm count in the tap test
Confirm has no Install row until its dry run ends, so an Enter sent
on its title alone fell on "Counting the files" and did nothing on
the runner. The test now waits for "Counted again for these choices",
drawn once the Install row exists.

Abdessamad Derraz 6c14468862 feat: say the installer and setup pages plainly
- The installer speaks without "you": the first screen asks "Where
  to install?", rows read "Copy the BIOS files from an old card or a
  folder", a close match reads "Close matches: ...". The handheld
  launchers and their port text follow, and the pronoun guard no
  longer lists any installer message.
- A setup that runs as an app opens on its one-line command, the
  folder table after it; a setup that runs on its own device keeps
  the network folder first, which its ZIP route needs.
- The home steps say what to do: "Its page gives one line to copy",
  "Paste it, press Enter".

Abdessamad Derraz 40ea1cdaed fix: read a wrapped path whole in screen tests
A folder under the checkout is as long as the checkout's own path. From a deep clone the screen broke it after a separator, as it should, and eight tests looked for it on one line.

Abdessamad Derraz c963499643 fix: wait for Confirm by its title in the tap test
The game-data tap test waited on the bare RetroBIOS: title, which the
screen before Confirm already showed, then pressed Enter only if one
settle had drawn Confirm. The runner drew it later and the install
never started. It now waits for the Confirm title and presses Enter.

Abdessamad Derraz 602945faf0 feat: logos, build stamps and exact wording
- The installer says "Every file on the list is in place." where it
  said "Everything is in place.": a check covers the files the
  collection holds, and the required ones it lacks follow.
- The FAQ, first install, legal and home pages state only what the
  code shows (PlayStation 1 and Saturn run without a BIOS on some
  emulators, save files are never touched, records are added).
- MinUI and MyMinUI show their own boot logos, and the Android,
  Linux handheld and iPhone tiles show the Android robot, Tux and a
  plain device icon, each credited in sources.json.
- Each Markdown copy, llms.txt and llms-full.txt name the commit
  they were built from, version.json the current one, and the
  answering rules tell assistants to fetch a stale copy again.
- The deploy lists the pages whose words changed (digests.json) and
  posts them to IndexNow once the site is live.

Abdessamad Derraz d73d673508 docs: say where the systems list opens
The page said a long list opens on None. The list opens on its first
system since the three tick lists share one rule (A on None unticked
every system as a beginner's first press). The page now says what the
screen does, and a test reads both.

Abdessamad Derraz 92b7d071c6 fix: one size for the ticked systems on the plan
With systems ticked since the check, the headline counted them (About
3479 files, 82.2 MB) and the Install row kept the whole list's size
(Install 6.6 GB). _ticked_estimate is the one count both read, offline
the files the folders copied from hold.

Abdessamad Derraz 68c8dca41d feat: offer the games of a handheld's card
An ArkOS EASYROMS card plugged into a computer was never offered "for
the games on this card": its console folders sit beside bios, with no
roms folder above. A games part now counts as a card that may hold
games.

Abdessamad Derraz 072380c268 feat: install the fewest files for a card's games
--for-games --required-only on a dArkOS card from a computer kept every
file of the list: --dest skipped the card's detection, so its rom
folders were never found. The games part beside the BIOS folder now
names them. The manifest marks a data tree every core runs without
(optional), and --required-only leaves it out: one GBA and one SNES game
took FBNeo's cheats and samples, 3,472 files no game opened.

Abdessamad Derraz 057fd2d0f6 fix: isolate every test module however it runs
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.

Abdessamad Derraz eb99131a6e fix: stop advising --save-dir a list cannot serve
RetroPie, ROCKNIX, AmberELEC, EmuELEC and RomM keep their save directory in no fixed place, and their lists leave those files out with no hash or address. The run said to name the folder with --save-dir, and said it again when --save-dir was given. It now says the list holds none of them.

Abdessamad Derraz d1d94f5979 fix: keep card and closed-folder tests apart
The --dest refusal for a path under a file stopped two fixtures: muOS's MUOS marker was written as a file with the BIOS folder below it, and the folder that cannot be created was a path under a file. The marker is now a folder and that case uses a folder this user cannot write.

Abdessamad Derraz f8702a19f7 feat: treat a Lakka card as a card setup
Lakka keeps its BIOS on its STORAGE partition (/storage/system). A computer now tells that partition by the retroarch.cfg RetroArch writes there, whose system_directory is Lakka's /tmp/system overlay, and --platform lakka on a computer asks for the card instead of writing to /storage/system here.

Abdessamad Derraz ccec5486e5 refactor: name site tests by subject
The site test modules were cut by review pass (test_site_r2_css to test_site_r5_wiki): the passes of one subject become one module, and the modules that stood alone take the name of what they hold. The installer test classes named after a review take the name of what they test. One test left --manifest set for the tests after it, which the new order showed: it now resets the sources.

Abdessamad Derraz 964812f977 chore: drop review tags from comments
Comments, docstrings and test texts ended on tags that name private review notes no clone holds. The tags go, the facts stay. Test methods named after a finding number are named after what they hold. test_prose_style refuses a tag that comes back. install.py changes in comments only: its pin and the launcher index follow.

Abdessamad Derraz 2e9175a8e9 feat: install for the games on the card
--for-games reads the card's rom folders through install/games/ and keeps
what the games need: per system what its default core reads, one region
where the content proves it (crc32 and size, a disc serial, a header the
core reads), an arcade set's BIOS parents. A game not recognised gets
every BIOS of its system and is named. --required-only keeps only what
starts. The plan and the line menu open on it when the card holds games,
everything one press away. A cache keeps what reading a card found.

Abdessamad Derraz 8e811582c1 fix: which-pack names the first screen in brief
The sentence fits the page's 400-word ceiling and its 20-word sentences.

do, and the core plan test names the cores --core gave.

and None work as on Choose systems, and the plan, Options and line mode
say all cores or N of M cores. A run with failures counts once, the
failed files said as failed.

Abdessamad Derraz a4faf536dd fix: a games part is its system's card
Closes every finding of code_audit_23 and tui_audit_16: AmberELEC and
EmuELEC cards found as theirs, ArkOS cards told by bgmusic or
launchimages, counts that agree and read a copy of the right size before
calling it in place, one terminal width, line mode in the screen's order
and words, a tap shown armed, and which-pack naming the first screen.
2026-10-28 16:34:55 +01:00
Abdessamad Derraz 9314edb0be fix: one vocabulary and one count in both modes
Line mode says the screen's words for the files in place, missing or to
replace, counts the data files in its last line, names what the --from
folders hold before Enter, says Copying and the result's count once, and ends
every result with the same-choice command. Each data tree is hashed once per
run. A wrapped command reads one rule for PowerShell, a pack path keeps its
file name, folder lines keep one indent, and the systems question fits its
terminal. On the screen a tap on the focused Install row arms it, the Game
data row keeps the focus, a choice in place opens on Choose systems, a pack
holding none of the files offers no Install, and the 40x12 plan keeps its
version note.

Abdessamad Derraz 9911321227 fix: a card is told by what its system writes
A drive is a handheld's games part only when it holds the folders ArkOS,
AmberELEC or EmuELEC write there, and never a disk Windows or Linux calls
fixed. A data drive or a stick with a bios folder is listed with a note,
never taken under Enter. Two cards are named in the plural, and the
settle of a new screen runs from when it is drawn.

Abdessamad Derraz 23804a8da3 fix: one total and the same words in both modes
Commands break between shell words with a continuation the shell reads,

folder whole. Line mode counts files in place and missing, and names the
BIOS folder, as the screen does. The systems question fits its terminal.

Abdessamad Derraz 5bf29b3dab fix: find unnamed cards and fit the served copy
An ArkOS or AmberELEC games part is named on the first screen and comes

build refuses a copy whose pin is not its installer.

Abdessamad Derraz 2e870d0692 fix: settle new screens before taking a tap
A press within 400 ms of a new screen belongs to a double tap on the

write files with nothing after them. The game data toggle keeps hidden
ticks, a choice in place offers no Install, and one total per plan.
