+Cheats
+------
+
+PCSX and cwcheat cheat formats are supported. PCSX .cht file can be loaded from
+"extra stuff" menu after game is loaded, while cwcheat cheats are automatically
+loaded from cheatpops.db file, if one is present in emulator's directory and
+has any cheats for the loaded game in it.
+If any of those files are successfully loaded, 'cheats' option will appear in
+the main menu where it is possible to enable/disable individual cheats.
