Disable Rom Info via command line in Ubuntu

Medox · Post by **Medox** » Tue Jun 10, 2008 3:30 pm

Is there a way to disable the "show rom info on load" via the command line in Ubuntu 8.04 terminal?

something like zsnes -ri (disable rom info) ?
when I start my game in the terminal it doen't show me the rom info but with the same command associated for the smc files I get that rom info on load

Why don't you just edit the cfg file or disable it in the GUI?

because it's already disabled.

when I start a rom (stand-alone, not in the gui) from the panel, it starts without the rom info stuff but when I double-click a smc file (associated with the same command line) it shows me that rom info

Perhaps this may be looked into, but if it works via the command line, then you should be doing that instead since ZSNES does not facilitate, nor support a means of "double clicking" on a ROM natively.

Edit: I was informed that double clicking on the file (that has been associated) changes the CWD (current working directory), so that might be causing your issue.

I could pull it fine (on gentoo) by doing a simple file association in my file browser.

Which version are you using ?

Huh, now it's gone

I've played around half an hour (some hours ago) and the problem was there, I've changed command lines and tested everything 10-20 times before my first post, it always showed that rom info after double-click-ing a rom (and without it when I've used the command line with the rom location)

but now... hm... I haven't touched anything, maybe a restart, nothing more, and the problme is gone. Not bad but why not from the beginning!? without bothering myself and you guys (after)

Anyway, thanks for the responses and GREAT WORK

my favorite emulator

p.s. maybe it's stupid but why don't you guys implement that parameter for disabling the rom info? (or to keep it disabled),,, I just love parameters for everything possible
