openMSX reads share/systemroms below OPENMSX_HOME or ~/.openMSX and
every filepool entry by SHA1. The profile paths drop RetroBat's
openmsx/ prefix and declare those directories and the filepool.
Batocera's config_directories reads the filepool lines its generator
writes, KNULLI reuses it. RetroBat records OPENMSX_HOME, RetroPie the
moveConfigDir of ~/.openMSX that its systemroms link lies in, and the
configure --prefix of xroar that its roms link lies in.
Batocera and KNULLI system ROMs move from openmsx/share/systemroms to
openmsx/, beside the files their own lists declare, RetroPie's to
BIOS/openmsx, the folder linked as share/systemroms.
MAME and libretro MAME pass /userdata/bios/<bootdisk>.img with -flop1
when the option is in the generator's list, else <bootdisk>.chd with
-hard. Each branch is a {bootdisk} template: the list the code tests
for the floppy, and for the hard disk the choices es_features.yml
offers that the list does not take. The menu offers macos3 while the
code tests macos30, so System 3.0 is passed as macos3.chd.
configureINI writes [Folders] Bios = ../../../bios/ps2 into
inis/PCSX2.ini, which PCSX2 and AetherSX2 resolve against the config
folder configgen hands it. relative_folders reads the call, the ini
path and the value, and records the resolved /userdata/bios/ps2 as a
passes_path for pcsx2 and aethersx2.
A copies record names its files under search_dir, the folder the code
copies from, and passes_to is the target, as the schema and RetroPie,
RetroDECK and AmberELEC already write it. KNULLI listed patches.zip
under the BIOS folder it is copied into, and KNULLI and RetroBat wrote
the target as prose with the condition. The condition of a copy now
goes in depends_on_option. Only launcher records change in knulli.yml
and retrobat.yml.
knulli_launchers reads KNULLI's configgen and the PICO-8 installer at
the tag the scraper pins: Batocera's extractors where the generator is
still Batocera's code, KNULLI's own for lexaloffle, libretroOptions and
knulli-install-pico8, and one AST reader for the BIOS paths the other
generators pass on a command line, in a config key or the environment,
copy or test for. 52 records.
