Ahh, now there's a thought - i'll get onto it straight away (bored with work
anyway!!)
I am a C programmer, so it sounds like the mame code may well help me out
here. As for the other reply, guess where i got these roms from ;o)
I must confess, at the time i didn't own any boards. But to be fair, whilst
still illegal, running the games on mame is what got me into all this, it
maid me think "sod this, i want the real thing" - no offence meant, just
keyboards and arcade games don't mix well...
So, off i go to hunt through the code......
