As far as I'm aware it's not possible for stock shipped MAME to do that. Are you using the official binary from mamedev.org (not MAMEUI or MAMEPlus or other derivatives)? And do you have a good virus scanner on your machine?

I've run both regular MAME and MAMEUI and do not have that file.

mame pacman >c:\a.txt

maybe he runs it via a shortcut or batchfile...or frontend

That doesn't make a textfile that contains.

Edit: I just tried what you posted and my a.txt file contained..

That is what I would expect to see.

my remark was more meant to be an example... I know what the redirect will create in the file
