Frontends are programs that allow a user to execute a program, usually a command-line one, using an interface. Examples of such are shown below.
ePSXeCutor
ePSXeCutor is a configuration utility for the ePSXe emulator (and maybe for PCSX-R too?) this comes in handy if you are juggling with many psx games and plugin configurations and want specific settings for each individual game and an easy way to swap between settings. It also allows for easy memory card and savestate managing. Latest version is ePSXeCutor 1.0.6.3.
HyperSpin
HyperSpin is a frontend for several emulators, however the focus tends to be for arcade emulators (e.g. MAME). Officially suggested emulators available for HyperSpin include MAME, MESS, Nestopia and ZSNES. For general use, though, do not use ZSNES; see SNES for more information on better emulators. Latest version is HyperSpin 1.0.
RoM-Jacket
RoM-Jacket is a frontend for a wide variety of emulators, in order to provide a consistent interface between them. In addition, it provides a simple interface download emulators and manage HTPC frontends. Latest version is v0.97b.
MAME frontends
Work in progress, needs expanding.
DOSBox frontends
There are several DOSBox frontends, all of which exist for similar purposes. A popular example would be D-Fend Reloaded, which allows you to sort/search and run DOS games without having to use the DOS command prompt. Other examples can be found on the DOSBox website.
