How is this merging done? Is it xmame that tells who can (or is supposed to) be the parent of who? I've tried to used romalizer yesterday for the first time... seems like it doesn't like me having to give it the full path to xmame.xgl to work, and always gives an error message. But I have been able to see with it (or maybe another of the tools, I played with lots ;-)) that some zip files I have contain duplicate files, thus merging them could be a good idea.
