Re: Software suggestion

I have considered looking into doing something similar myself as I had a few ideas. I think it would be nice if the RPO coder was updated, with additional information, and available without dependency on .Net Framework since many people don't install it but still think the program will work.

However, unfortunately, due to GM recycling RPO codes and not all of them being known (just the common/bigger ones), not all the information is known, available, or 100% accurate. I find best results with a mixture of using the program on here, and elsewhere, as well as searching the 3-character code within the forums.

If someone wants to do so, let me know as I'll do what I can to assist. You have all the information on the RPO program that we do. However, I think it would be best to rebuild the RPO coder as the current one is outdated and simply repackaging it would probably not be good enough.
