      @Botolo genesis is a symlink and is present too. The problem is neither the dash nor the symlink.

        It was indeed the dash.
        The problem was in the urls.py regex that didn't match the name with "-".

        Now I think it's working. Can you try it?

          Do you mean no need for those annoying renaming process?! Great!!! :D

          I'm away from my rasp, but I'll try it this evening. :-)

            And of course another issue come up :D
            With the new regex the form seems unable to delete the files.

            It's a never ending job :/

                  @Botolo just out of curiosity how much overhead does this tool have?

                          @Botolo yeah I just tested it and it's very lightweight. Once we sort out the repository stuff we can add some things like the runcommand log. A few icon changes, maybe the colours too. I can get a working module that will automate the install somewhat and we can throw it on zerojays retropie-extra extra repository

                            Sounds good.
                            I'd like to add a syntax JS to the editor too.

                            Do you think we should get rid of the original recalbox variables?

                              I think yes. I'll try to do it tonight.

                                I found a problem. The RetroPie-Manager isn't able to show subdirs in ROMs directories.
                                For example, my /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes has the following subdirs:
                                0-9/
                                a/
                                b/
                                c/
                                d/
                                etcetera...

                                When I open the NES' ROMs dir in RetroPie-Manager, it's empty.

                                  I know, but this could be tricky to solve since that module has been designed for a single level folder structure.

                                        Hey guys!
                                        A small update:
                                        A did a small script to simplify the commands to start/stop the RetroPie-Manager.
                                        Take a look at https://github.com/botolo78/RetroPie-Manager again ;-)

                                          @herb_fargus made an adjustment and now the RetroPie-Manager can run on a ubuntu-based RetroPie.

                                          @Botolo maybe you should rename this thread to "RetroPie-Manager web server", what do you think? ;-)
