Well well well....holiday's over and after two months it's time for a release. clrmamepro 3.90 is out.

Mainly introducing the new xml driven header support. Since I'm not a good header detector author, I only added three simple header xmls to the current release. Header gods should check out the new functionality and let me know which operations are needed. Any feedback is highly appreciated. So...waiting for that feedback I want to rewrite the documentation as well in the near future....and maybe I find some time to write more xml header definitions.

By the way...when you create a datfile which uses headers, the crc32/sha1/md5 and size values have to be the hashes and size (or use size - ) for the real-rom data (without the header).

Ok...here comes the new stuff:

3.90

added: XML driven file header support.

For detailed information, please consult the xmlheaders.txt file.

misc: moved all set specific selection stuff from settings to setinfo window
misc: renamed "?" button to set information
misc: new apply button instead of OnKillFocus to apply regular expressions
misc: www profiler xmls get a valid xml header
misc: xml sax parser handles xml header and xml comments correctly
misc: using updated zipclass library
misc: drag'n drop operations bring windows to top position
misc: optimized setinfo tree/list refresh
misc: deleting a profile selects first profile in the current profile folder

fixed: disabling name check falsely hides listed unneeded issues as well
fixed: double entries in fixdatfiles if rom is listed several times in the scan results tree
