Introducing EcmEdit

http://ecmedit.sourceforge.net

I've put up a very, *very* early release of a program I've been working on for bin editing. Right now it's somewhat functional (you can edit everything in raw values, calc the checksum, save it), but ugly.

The important thing is that it's cross platform. This means that you can use it on Macs, Linux, Windows, Palm, Pocket PC, etc.

It's just a developer's release for now, there is only source code to download from SourceForge, but it's a start.

There are tons of TODOs scattered throughout the code, so feel free to send me corrections.

Alex

Sweet! Keep it up. The more options, the better.

Edit:

You're going to want to be careful with space-delimiting the axis labels. There are ECUs out there have spaces for some of the individual labels (5 char Y axis), as they use strings. I don't have an example off-hand, but they're out there.

Also, you might consider writing your own definition format and just write an ECU importer for it. I'd avoid polluting the ECU format with your own modifications (trust me, I've done it myself), as it may break compatibility with other software that makes use of the ECU format.

Just a couple suggestions from someone who's familiar with the path. =)

Looks good, keep going!

Ya, right now you need to check it out through CVS, there are instructions on the SourceForge website on how to do this.

I don't have any executables yet so there's no point in releasing any files right now.
