This is though informative and helpful, so I support it. Obviously it
would be better to minimize access, but from the wince perspective
either a small md5 or a quick list check will run just fine.
And while on the subject, Arisme has implemented an "automatic search
for games" feature for the wince port. By selecting the parent directory
where all the games are (typically) contained, all games are added in
one strike. The code for this is not that much, and is contained at
backends/wince/CELauncherDialog.cpp (automaticScanDirectory). Do you
think this is useful for our non-ce users as well?
