+[I] the Unix/X11 ports of the MAME and MESS projects
+
+[T] MAME is an arcade machine emulator. Started in 1997 by Nicola Salmoria,
+[T] MAME started out as a series of emulators for individual games. This
+[T] series of emulators was combined into a simgle multi-game emulator.
+[T]
+[T] Xmame/xmess are the Unix/X11 ports of the MAME and MESS projects. It
+[T] makes MAME/MESS available on UNIX and similar systems using the X11R6
+[T] X-Window System (and SVGAlib/ggi/XF86-DGA/OpenGL/SDL too).
