* Fix console history path, homepath is a core option
* Create missing directories recursively in lua plugins.
* Add lfs to global environment in a less magical way.
require normally doesn't bind the name globally just returns the
module, mame sets a preloader that does bind lfs globally, but
maybe it's less surprising to do it explicitly
Made the sound manager mute controls readable, and got rid of system
enable since it just controls system mute anyway. This was causing
confusion: phantom2 was trying to use both independentlyt casuing the
mute bit to be ignored.
THe Lua interface changes are mostly changing methods to properties,
some renames to make things clearer, and some additional properties for
better control over snapshots.
* added support for reading/writing hiscore files from cart images
example hiscore.dat entry:
````
nes,smb:
Super Mario Bros. (World).nes:
Super Mario Bros. (W) [!].nes:
@:maincpu,program,7df,4,0,0,ff
````
* store console hiscores in subdirs, added cart hashes support
* added back my prev changes
* added missing end
* using simpler regexpr for hiscore.ini parsing, fixed typo
* minor cleanups
This effectively reverts b380514764 and
c24473ddff, restoring the state at
598cd52272.
Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.
hiscore.dat and hi folder path were not resolved as expected (their path was relative to mame executable, not to the plugin folder). Explicitly writing them as absolute paths gives the desired behavior.
