Re: Modders - Need a Data Format Checker?

Abilities.txt is just a reference file.

How are you writing your program? I've got a program written in C++ that is designed to create various forms of display files based on a mod's data, such as html files, CSV files, and MySQL database schema files. Perhaps we could combine our work? I've been meaning to rewrite the file classes to use a more intelligent inheritance model. Perhaps I should get on that!

Edit:
That modder by DavidG isn't necessarily what Wenin was thinking of, though. It doesn't necessarily act as a constraints checker of a manually edited file. Does it properly handle malformated files?
