I accidentally hit the escape key and lost a lot of progress in a game. The terminal then told me that and oops file save me state. Now when I went to look through the man file not a single word is mentioned about this AT ALL. No documentation neither.
Does anyone know how these oops files work? or where there's some actual documentation? This is very frustrating
rename the .oops file to a numbered save state slot (.000 through .009) and then load with the corresponding F key (where F1 loads [romname].000).
for example, if you're playing awesomegame.sfc, save states will be named awesomegame.000 through awesomegame.009, and the oops file will be awesomegame.oops. if you know you've used save states 1 through 4 and don't want to clobber them, you'd rename awesomegame.oops to awesomegame.004 (which is slot 5), fire up snes9x, and load slot 5 with the F5 key.
