Wahcade only lets you specify the generic arguments for the application, i.e. "fs-uae --fullscreen" and it only sends one other argument which is the name of the file you've selected, so unfortunately unless I can change the disk to any in the disks folder, it still won't be of any use.

I assume I can't navigate the FS-UAE frontend with a joypad though? The reason people use Wahcade is that it lets you browse through your libraries for different emulators and start games from a list that way.

See this for an example of what I mean - [ Show youtube player ] - essentially only emulators that you can start without their own frontends are of any use, else you get stuck needing to switch back to a keyboard and mouse.
