Free it mame software for linux

IT-MAME project is a Tcl/tk Front End for xMAME.

A graphical front end for xmame (Unix version of Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). Easy to use and written in Tcl/Tk.

IT-MAME is a Front End for the great Unix arcade emulator xmame, wich is based on M.A.M.E. project (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). It has been written on tcl/tk, and yes, it already exists a tk frontend called tk-mame, but IT-MAME is smaller, quicker, and easier to use.

This script was developed and tested over the 0.36rc1 version of xmame, so i dont know if that works on prior versions of xmame, if you can test it, please let me know.

ckmame is a program to check ROM sets for MAME, the Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.

ckmame project tells you which ROM files are missing or have a wrong checksum, and can delete unknown and unused files from the ROM sets, and rename or move ROM files.

The Romalizer project is a Tcl script to analyze your MAME roms and report errors.
The ROMalizer is a Tcl script that examines your .zip files for MAME ROMs and lets you know if you have any extra data in them. It can also report incorrect filenames, CRCs, etc.
Enhancements:
- romalizer will no longer move the zipfiles it has fixed into your roms directory unless you specify the -M option. This will allow you to run romalizer as a normal user on a roms filesystem that is only writable by root or some other games administrator. If you use the -M option, romalzier will back up your old roms into the working directory as usual, if the -M option is not used, the new (fixed) roms will be located in the working directory.
- romalizer now fully supports two new styles of merging your roms. You may now use the -g or -G options to tell romalizer to use one of these new merging formats. When -g is used, romalizer will merge all clones into a single zip file. When -G is used, romalizer will create clone zip files that are capable of being run independantly of the parent romset. I have tested these new merging features on my pacman romset and it works beautifully, however more testing probably needs to be done on a complete romset for these options.
- neogeo games are now supported, romalizer will just ignore any CRC that matches 354029fc (ng-sfix.rom), 9036d879 (neo-geo.rom), and 97cf998b (ng-sm1.rom). Thus neogeo roms are now fully supported except for these 3 which should be placed in a file called neogeo.zip.
- romalizer requires usage of UnZip version 5.41 or higher due to a Y2K bug in UnZip. This patch will now check your unzip version and abort if you do not have a recent version of UnZip.

AdvanceMAME and AdvanceMESS are unofficial MAME and MESS versions with an advanced video support for helping the use with TVs, Arcade Monitors, Fixed Frequencies Monitors and also for PC Monitors.
They run in GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, DOS, Windows and in all the other platforms supported by the SDL library.
The main difference compared with the official emulators is that the Advance versions are able to program directly the video board to always get a video mode with the correct size and frequency.
Generally the Advance emulators are able to use a video mode which doesnt require any stretching or other unneeded effects to match the original arcade display.
The direct video board programming is fully supported in Linux and DOS. Its partially supported in Windows. AdvanceMAME isnt supported in Mac OS X and other platforms.
