Hi,
i think it is really clear

You have your scummvm game, for example Maniac Mansion
Your Folder has also the name Maniac Mansionfor example.
Go into the folder and create "yourself" a shortname.scummvm file (how on dosbox with the "dosbox.bat" file, but here a simple text file renamed to xxx.scummvm).
Short name? What is it?
(the link to the shortnames is also in the readme).
http://scummvm.org/compatibility/

We see: Ah, Maniac Mansionhas the short name maniac
Great, you will now have to create a file called maniac.scummvm
You are ready to play .....after reboot!

You can also look into this thread:

Here are all short names inside.
