changes to mythgame.
The biggest change to mythgame is the addition of a screenshot based
selection screen. In the mythgame-settings.txt file there is a setting
called ShotCount. If this is set to any number greater than 0 the
screenshot selection menu is used. Otherwise it defaults to 0 which
uses the title list menu. On the screenshot based menu pressing tab
will switch between the upper list and the screen shot list. pressing
'e' when a game title is highlighted will launch the game settings
editor. pressing 'e' when the system name is highlighted will allow you
to change the default game settings and rebuild the game list. The game
list is built by default the first time you run mythgame but will not be
run automatically after that. If you add new roms or change your path's
you will have to rebuild the game list. Can't think of anything else
right now.

Looks real nice, works well -- I had to add an include, but that was all..
I'll have some more comments/code in a bit, I think.
