DATMaker by Izaram

This program creates clrmame compatible DAT files for any kind of file format
regardless of whether the files are zipped or not. The generated DAT files are
used in a number of other applications. For example, anyone with a complete set
of GoodTools-named roms can share them with anyone else to verify the integrity
of their collection using the ClrMamePro utility.
