How to start BigBox / Launchbox from Pinup Popper frontend "MAME" option?

[Mopple]

Hi everybody,

 

I have a regular 3-screen Virtual Pinball cabinet and, after a long hiatus following a total PC / VP crash about two years ago, I finally found the time and personal strength to rebuild everything from scratch.

 

I chose Pinup Popper since it seemed the optimal plug and play VP option, and I (more or less) have it up and running.

 

And here comes my topic question:

Besides playing pinball I also have, on another partition, a Launchbox / BigBox installation with a lot of Sinden lightgun games.

Since the official documentation about starting a frontend out of Popper is a bit short and vague IMHO, can somebody help me out here?

 

From what I understand, I need a batch script file which, using the "MAME" option in the Popper pinball frontend, is able to start LaunchBox (and even, apparently, to go back to Popper upon closing LaunchBox!).

 

Please, can anybody provide me with the proper way to do this (script, where to put it)? I'm really not too good at this.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks so much in advance!

 

Here's the original documentation page for reference:
