- The app tries to follow the Garlic OS theme.

Installation
-
Back up your ../CFW/start
file. The following changes will be performed
- copy the folders to the
Roms
partition
- in a dual card setup
CFW
folder must be copied to SD1 card and the ROMS
folder can be copied to either SD1 or SD2.
Technical details
- Before launching an app or a ROM via retroarch, Garic OS creates a file
command.sh
in the ../CFW/retroarch
folder.
- After the script is created, the main app closes and the script will be run
- This is done to free up the RAM allocated by the main app
- romSearch does a similar thing, creating the
romsearch.sh
at the same location
- I could not find a way to implement the same behaviour without changing the start script.
