QMC2-MAIN-GUI(6) QMC2 User's Guide QMC2-MAIN-GUI(6) NAME qmc2-sdlmame - QMC2 - M.A.M.E. Catalog/Launcher II SYNOPSIS qmc2-sdlmame [-config_path path] [-cc] [-tc] [-r] [-h|-?|-help] [qt_arguments] DESCRIPTION QMC2 is a graphical front-end based on Qt which drives the great MAME emulator. Besides being a powerful catalog and launcher for systems em- ulated by MAME it also contains sophisticated ROM management features through its built-in ROMAlyzer. OPTIONS -config_path path Specify this argument to use the directory path instead of the default folder (~/.qmc2) to store QMC2's configuration, logs and cache-files / cache-folders. -cc This command line option will instruct QMC2 to clear all emula- tor related caches while starting up in order to forcibly reload this data from the emulator. -tc Specifying this option on the command line will perform a tem- plate check against the current default emulator (if set), printing its output to stdout and exiting before actual start-up occurs. -r The reconfigure option will relaunch the setup wizard / welcome dialog before starting. This allows you to update or correct the most important emulator settings in an easy way. -h|-?|-help Shows a brief command line usage help. qt_arguments See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qapplication.html#QApplication for more information. However, note that QMC2 will overwrite most of the available Qt arguments with its saved settings in ~/.qmc2/qmc2.ini.
