- The above filter will download the Super NES core, but not the Genesis core.
- The filter above will download only the Super NES core, without its cheats, and nothing else.
- Anything listed after `filter =` will be downloaded, unless it's prefixed with an exclamation mark ❗ (which means NOT).
- Note that the symbols `-` and `_` are ignored by the filter, so terms like `pc_engine-cd` and `pcenginecd` are the same.
- Filter terms cannot have spaces in them. `!pokemon mini` will be interpreted as *no* to pokemon, *yes* to mini.

### Examples

- `filter = console !computer` will only download console cores. Even though !computer is explicity excluded, the positive `console` term is the *only* positive, and so it's the only inclusion.
- `filter = arcade !arcade-astrocade` will download only the arcade cores, except the astrocade core.
- `filter = arcade console` will download every arcade and console core, but nothing else.
- `filter= !computer` will download every core except computer cores.
- `filter = console !computer` will only download console cores. Even though !computer is explicity excluded, the positive `console` term is the *only* positive, and so it's the only inclusion.

👉 The `essential` cores will always be included unless you specifically remove them with `!essential`. The `essential` cores include the MiSTer menus, etc, and should not be excluded for most purposes.
