Search for screenshots is a one way match
the screenshot name HAS to include the whole rom name somewhere - 'filename must include ROMM filename' - need both way fuzzy logic, or at least a match is made the other way round: 'ROM filename must include screenshot filename'

"Searching for screen shots works by knowing the rom name and searching for it in all files. So you can look for 123 ( rom name ) in a batch of unknown file names. Is 123 in file one, is it in file two, etc… Since we don’t know the file name and the rom name is static we cannot reverse this. We could however chop the rom name by a known method.
Romname (u): we could just say look for romname and ignore the space and all other characters.
Romname_this_and_that: again would could ignore all right of the _
