Abdessamad Derraz 9f8a2a9fe2 chore: mark what each emulator install brings
Every bundled flag was checked against the release or the build recipe of the build that reads the file. A libretro core zip holds the core alone: fMSX, Nuance, ep128emu and PCEE2 files the source tree carries are no longer bundled, and blueMSX, ARMSX2, YAPS2, Cemu and Jazz2 entries are split per build. Files the release ships and the profile missed are now bundled (POM2, ZQuest Classic, EmuCoreX, Linux Loader). Platform packages that differ are named: Batocera installs hcl and Hurrican without their data, ROCKNIX ships touchHLE's Liberation Sans fonts only, Batocera and RetroPie install blueMSX's machines beside the core.

Side-scrolling 1995 action game by Crack dot Com, SDL2 fork from the Xenoveritas
branch. The port ships its own game data in-tree under data/ (14 MB), including
the Lisp scripts, levels, art and freedesktop metadata. The fRaBs expansion was
removed from this fork over licensing uncertainty.
Entry point abuse.lsp is loaded relative to the data directory. The data root
is set in src/sdlport/setup.cpp:
1. -datadir <path> CLI argument (setup.cpp:327-332)
2. datadir= in abuse.cfg (setup.cpp:182)
3. ASSETDIR compile-time constant, filled by CMakeLists.txt:45-54, "." on
Windows, abuse.app/Contents/Resources/data on macOS, share/games/abuse on
Linux (setup.cpp:441-474)
Loader1 reads abuse.lsp via lisp (loader2.cpp:284), which chain-loads
lisp/english.lsp -> lisp/common.lsp -> lisp/startup.lsp -> ...
Batocera's packaging (package/batocera/ports/abuse/abuse.mk) pins DASSETDIR to
/userdata/roms/abuse and splits the data into the Pacman package abuse-data
which pulls abuse.zoy.org's abuse-data-2.00.tar.gz, a 16 MB public-domain pack
that includes music/ and sfx/ (which the Xenoveritas tree omits).
No separate BIOS or firmware. The whole game is open content.

file in turn chain-loads the rest of the Lisp data (english.lsp,
