Virginia Tech shootings

Was anyone here affected by this? I thought we had at least one person here from Blacksburg/VT. EDIT: It was PFUNK I was trying to think of.

The three people I know from there are fine.

Nach and/or anyone who knows, do relative paths work as expected with ZSNES these days? I thing I remember a while ago they didn't work in all conditions.

And someone remind me, what does one dot do? Two dots are up one folder, right?

I don't really download music with torrents, so I don't think I have much to worry about at this point.

Tetris & Dr. Mario

So, tonight I played the Dr. Mario half of this game for the first time. I love the sound effects. Has anyone ever noticed how similar many of the sounds effects are with Earthbound's? It was uncanny, for me. On a related note, this is the first time I've noticed that the Tetris on this rom has the ...

I believe that what the guy is complaining is the lack of keyboard shortcuts to Game/Config/Cheat/Netplay/Misc, and their subitems. You can navigate most of the ZSNES GUI with a keyboard.

NSRT ( http://nsrt.edgeemu.com ) is the current state-of-the-art in terms of SNES ROM sorting/scanning/renaming, etc. An added bonus is that the creator and main developer of NSRT is also a developer for ZSNES.

The reason I give a shit is because when the program is open-source, I believe it tends to keep the developers a bit more honest about what they put in there. There's other reasons, but I won't go into them.

EDIT: Thanks, cdisplay has some potential.
