for retro ROMs, disc images, and Linux homebrew packages. Decodes iNES,
SNES, GBA, GB, GBC, N64, NDS, ISO-9660, and CHD binary headers, matches
nearby cover art, and stores favorites, ratings, and playtime in SQLite.
- Checksum Verifier and DAT Matcher: Streaming CRC32, MD5, and SHA-1
calculator with No-Intro XML DAT verification (Good, Duplicate, Unknown)
and audit CSV export.
- Linux Emulator Profiles: Auto-detects host emulator binaries, supports
