What
"in_game_shortcut": trueare considered valid for assignment; feature is opt-in for pak makers."short_name"value for display comfort. Otherwise it limits it to 12 characters.Why
How
Proof of Concept:
GameGuide.pak.zip
GameGuide.pak is a very basic text file reader that, if launched from in-game, looks for a .txt file under:
<ROM folder>/.media/<ROM filename stem>.txt<ROM folder>/<ROM filename stem>.txt/Guides/<emulator tag>/<ROM filename stem>.txt/Guides/<ROM filename stem>.txtand launches it automatically, as well as remembering the user's place in the file. Can also be launched from Tools with a SD Card file browser.
