Potential WinAPE issue with SNA command line loading?

During some tests with SNA loading from command line in WinAPE, we have found this potential issue (See SNA and CPCtelera project with sources attached):

       
  • If you run WinAPE normally, wait untill it boots up and shows firmware messages, and then press F5 and load the SNA, it works as expected.
  • If you run WinAPE from command line, adding /SN:snapshot, the snapshot loads and runs, but an odd thing happens:

       
  • During some initial seconds (don't know how many, but 5-6 more or less), some keypresses are detected by key scan routines. In some cases, this keypresses affect the running software, when this software expects them.
After some debugging and digging, I have come to the conclusion that these keypresses seem like some sort of initialization routine from the emulator. Seem like simulated keypresses to produce DSK autoload or something similar. I may be totally wrong: it is just an educated guess.
@Executioner, could you please have a look at it?
I'm using WinAPE 2.0 beta 2.

Profe mirate esto:

Yo lo he probado con un WinAPe a parte y me ha funcionado, cuidado con la ruta, si es muy larga no funciona, al igual que un DSK, el CPC se pone a escribir la ruta completa, y como no le entra lanza un error.


English people.
Take a look to this,
