ArcadeOS runs off text based config files, which describe:-
the applications it frontends,
which items can be configured for those applications
and (optionaly) how you want the keys remapped for the applications

This allows it to support most DOS applications, currently there are .APP files for

MAME,Callus,System16,Raine,Rage
BRSMS,ColEM,KGen98,GENECYST,MGX,Magic Engine,NESTICLE,RockNES,SP,Z26 and ZSNES.

The documentation supplied with ArcadeOS fully describes how .APP files can be written
to extend ArcadeOS to front end other applications.

The executable and source are available here

ArcadeOS is a mixed Real and Protected Mode DOS application
written in C and assembler using DJGPP and Borland C++ 3.1
