About

ZSNES is a free software SNES emulator written mostly in x86 assembly with official ports for Linux, MS-DOS, Mac OS, and Windows.

Configuration

Platform Version Device Exec Type commandline_format
Linux 1.51 ROM /usr/bin/zsnes D -m "[rompath]/[name].[romext]"

Reassigning Hotkeys

If you're using ZSNES with Wah!Cade in an arcade cabinet, you will probably want to disable the background layer hotkeys. Launch ZSNES from the Applications menu or from Terminal/Konsole by typing "zsnes". In the main menu that appears click MISC and then click on the first option called MISC KEYS. Delete or remap the BG 1-4 definitions however you like. Now you can map player 1 start and player 2 start to the 1 and 2 keys respectively without unintentionally toggling the background layers.

By using the -m parameter in the command line format (as shown above), ZSNES will be executed without the GUI. While in this mode, the ESC key exits the emulator.
