I prefer having roms sorted by genre. That way I can think 'shooter' rather than 'Truxton.' I can easily filter out sports games so I don't have to scroll past NFL 1947 - 1996. It also makes it easier to discover new games I haven't played before.
I couldn't find any automated tools to do this. So I put some together. These are small bat files that work with extracted GoodTools romsets. Put them in your rom directory and run them.
