Thanks to the people for first donations, seems some Romulus addicts exists :P
Added tutorial for beginners, with it i wish more people will try Romulus
Another Romulus Update and this are the changes for 0.011 version.

- ADDED Stop button in processing window available in a lot of actions.
- ADDED Automatic romspath maker and configuration. This is available in popup menu in profiles list and using a base path Romulus can detect or create folders for romspath based in Profile name or Profile description. This is a very usefull option for manage a new or already created folders. TODO LIST DONE.
- ADDED Send to generator option available in Profiles list and Scanner tool buttons. This can send the selected profile to Generator to export to other format or select/unselect roms before export or for example split a profile.
- ADDED popup menu for Scanner - loaded profiles tabs to send to first, send to last possition and delete tab.
- ADDED Automatic detection of OS Language and if is available in Romulus automatic setting up. This will be done the first Romulus run or when no INI file exists.
- ADDED possiblity to maximize / minimize when processing windows is making a process just making a click in taskbar.
- ADDED flashing window message in taskbar when Romulus is not the active application.
- ADDED Windows theme Vista and 7 for Treelist, Listview, Opendialog and Savedialog for all Romulus components.
- CHANGED Removed Listview dotted rectangle when a line is focussed like Windows Explorer.
- CHANGED File extensions different to ZIP RAR or 7Z are checked as compressed and manage it if is necessary, else are managed as uncompressed roms.
- CHANGED Generator checkboxes are used from windows theme. For example in Windows XP and Windows 7 are diferent bitmaps for checkboxes and Romulus display your correct OS checkbox bitmap.
- CHANGED All command line params are converted to OEM, this will fix problems with some special filenames when making some actions like compress, uncompress or run emulators.
- CHANGED Importation removed "." changed with empty at end of set names because a compressed file can have this filename "romname..zip" but a uncompressed mode a folder can not be "Setname." with point at final.
- CHANGED Importation removed ".\" changed with "\" at start of filename reason same as the other change.
- UPDATED 7z binary to 9.22 version.
- IMPROBED speed hack for Scan compressed files with a lot of folders inside.
- IMPROBED speed in some general functions.
- IMPROBED speed for Log displaying lines.
- FIXED some problems applying headers when correct filename to rebuild is the same of header check.
- FIXED when header is activated for a profile was not closed correctly and is active for the next profiles without header selected.
- FIXED compressing files that filename is same as filename compressed.
- FIXED move to backup function fails when filename to backup is the same of existing folder.
- FIXED When stay on top of Romulus is active the messages window was on back and not in front.
- FIXED Update Offlinelist profile using Updater option causes errors.
- FIXED Sometimes when DAT import fails next DATs tryed to imported fails too.
- FIXED Some problems when processing window is active and user can use other options that must not be used when processing window is making the process forzing sometimes an exception.
- FIXED importation filesizes in HEX format 0x0000, i found only a DAT file using this kind of expression.
- FIXED XML some special chars in export profile options, (",&....).
- FIXED donation bug link in settings window.

Can I ask ... is Romulus any good. I've not tried it myself yet just in case! a v0.011 sounds like a very early version.

The name is interesting, yeah Roman

Any competition in a world dominated by clrMAME and ROMCenter is, at least, a gesture of bravery. Congrats and I wish to the author success.

Romulus and Remus, co-founders of ancient Rome. As robbbert is IIRC from Italy, and we are handling ROM sets, it makes sense.
