dumpgame

ckmame(1) database.

can also find roms matching a particular
checksum.
dumpgame
supports the following
options:
-b
,
--brief
- Use brief mode: don't output ROM and disk information.
-c
,
--checksum
- Look for a ROM by checksum (instead of the default behaviour to look for a
game by name).
-D
dbfile, --db
dbfile
- Use database dbfile instead of the default
“mame.db”.
-d

--disk
- Look for a disk by checksum (instead of the default behaviour to look for
a game by name).

--help
- Display a short help message.
-V
,
--version

The game argument can also be one of the
following special keywords:
- /dat
- Names of the datfiles used for creating the database, and their
descriptions.
- /detector
- Name and version of the CMPro XML header skip detector used (if any).
- /hashtypes
- Types of checksums used (crc, md5, sha1). One line each for roms and
disks.

- /list/disk
- List names of all disks in the database.
- /list/game
- List names of all games in the database.
- /stats
