Welcome to the Wah!Ki - an unofficial support wiki for the Wah!Cade project (and derivatives) Wah!Cade; A GNU/Linux friendly clone of Minwah's excellent MameWAH is a front end for games, emulators (e.g. the M.A.M.E. arcade game emulator), music and applications. It has been designed with arcade cabinet controls & projects in mind but is versatile enough that it can be used with many different controller scheme. Originally authored by Andy Balcombe and released under the GNU GPL license. It was later picked up by Wayne Moulden as an introduction to python and has remained in an experimental maintenance cycle since as Mah!Cade (Modified Wah!Cade). Wah!Cade remains the primary stop for Linux users seeking a MAME frontend although there are other options available today. The main portion of this site will focus on the official Wah!Cade release. Branch manuals will also be made available where branches support additional features not found in the official release.
