If you have similar things like this (trivial typos, misspellings), I'd like to see them posted at the SDLMAME forum. It'll be less work for everyone and it will be seen just as quickly if not quicker there. Better yet, a properly made .DIFF file making the change and submitting to: submit@mamedev.org Info on .diff making and submitting: http://mamedev.org/devwiki/index.php/Submitting_Source_Code
