The history.dat in the new release of MEWUI is all messed up. It has all these special characters such as "[]" in between lines of text.

And what is this new, large file that is now included with MEWUI, called mewui.sys? This file has never been included in previous releases.

Could you post a screenshot?

Is the symbol file, useful in case of program crash.

This is what it's supposed to look like. This is a screenshot of the previous version...

If you are using the latest version of History (1.49), the problem does not occur.

For reasons of management, speed and compatibility with future versions, I abandoned the encoding used by the MameUI and I adopted that used by QMC2.

But technically it's not necessary for the program to function properly? Your file description makes me assume that it saves your edited settings during that session after it crashes. And if you didn't have that file, if the program crashed, then all settings that were modified would not be saved. Is this an accurate assumption?

The file is used to identify the point that caused the crash, for example, the program crashes if you enter a search in the main menu, then reset with ESC and always comes out with ESC. (error already solved, will provide for release of a corrected version in one day). At this point, repeating the steps from the command prompt (console) you have the exact report of what he did crash

In other words, it is useful in error reporting

Update 0.200 (always based on the code MAME / MESS 0.149u1), fixed some bugs and added support for JPEG images.

I'm still having that "[]" problem in the history.dat. I used the QMC2's history.dat and it decreased the amount of "[]", but didn't get rid of them completely.

Is the proper title of your MESS program called "MEWUI MESS" or "MEWUI for MESS"? I like to have my programs named correctly. I've seen it titled both ways from various sources, so I just wanted to know what the author says is the official title.

For info, which OS do you use?

For the name I'd say "MEWUI for MESS", although both are good

Unfortunately I can not replicate the issue, this is how I see it:

I finally found the issue (by virtualizing xp) and fixed in the next release.

Many thanks Big Karnak!
