Emu Loader v8.0

Emu Loader v8.0 is released. Emu Loader was created to manage an arcade games emulator called M.A.M.E. With this frontend, you can change practically any option that is available in the emulator, like the screen resolution, sound quality, game options, etc. There are lots of extra features that makes your life much more easier, like the snapshots viewer where all captured images from M.A.M.E. games can be viewed when selecting games.

Emu Loader v8.0 Changelog:
- Frontend games list files format have changed to use tags, to avoid problems with non-English code pages and localization ("eldirarcade" folder). EL will try to convert your current games list files at startup; sadly, games list file sizes have doubled Sad
Additional changes were made to help reduce file sizes and to avoid adding pointless data
- fields "emulation/color/sound/graphic status" are only added if driver status is "imperfect" or "preliminary"; no need to add them if driver status is "unknown" or "good"
- field "game size" is only added if value different than 0 (zero)
- following fields are only added if they appear in MAME´s -listxml output: "buttons", "mechanical", "controls", "number of players", "screen type", "screen orientation", "screen resolution", "screen refresh rate"
- Updated softlist games list files format to match the new arcade list format; "softname.el" file sizes are smaller than before Smile
WARNING: you must manually delete all files from "eldirsoftwarelist" folder before using this build or the frontend will crash (no auto-update)!
- Updated "ini_files imes_played.ini" to replace " ¬ " char by " ; " char to avoid problems with non-English Windows code pages and localization. File will be updated at startup if found and not already updated
- Replaced a bunch of Pos() calls by a faster assembler optimized PosEx() function (sourceuCommon.pas)
Note: PosEx() function doesn´t work with Unicode strings (Delphi WideString)

- Disabled deprecated settings in MAME setting screen: "HTTP Server" and "Enable LUA Console" for MAME v0.168 and up
