Hi,
When you try to run a cartridge from the command line, if the name has an "apostrophe", the game is not loaded:
Galaga '90.pce
Bon's Adventure.pce
etc...
those games are not loaded from the command line, but if a game don't have the "apostrophe", it works (even if it has spaces in the name).
I know I posted a message in the "General" section about a request to run games from the command line, but I just realized that the emulator already does that (it only misses the CD booting from the command line )
regards,

Indeed :)
Regarding the filename: did you try encapsulating it in quotation marks? Ex:
pce.exe "Bonk's Adventure.pce"
That could do the trick. |

yes, I tried that and it doesn't work.
I'm using Windows 98 SE (Brazilian version).
There are some games/applications that work fine in English Windows, but if the OS is in another language, it doesn't work.
I wonder if that's the case about Magic Engine.
Oh, my consoles frontend, EmuCon already include the quotes arround the game's filenames.
