MAMECAT stands for M.A.M.E. Catalog/Launcher.

It consists of three programs:

• mamecat (curses version of the launcher; text-only)
• qmamecat (Qt version of the launcher; X11)
• catgen (a simple catalog generator)

  The key-features of MAMECAT are

  • preview-image support (Qt/X11 version only !), several file-formats (GIFs, BMPs, XPMs etc...)
  • easy, extendable catalog-format (incl. a catalog-generator)
  • X11 (using Qt) and text-only (i.e console or xterm) user interfaces available
  • works with most recent xmame-versions (should virtually work with any release :-)
