- OBEdit is a small command-line utility that can import/export values from
- X-COM I and II's OBDATA.DAT file to tab- or comma separated ASCII files. These
- files can esily be manipulated by most database or spreadsheet programs.
-
- OBEdit is written in Amiga E, and the source code is available at
- dev/e/OBedit_src.lha
-
- CHANGES FROM v1.0:
-
- - Successfully implemented "$VER:" version string. (Finally got it working!)
- - Improved import-file exception handling. No longer aborts if procline() or
- impvalues() encounter out-of-range data, but rather skips the object
- (line in CSV/RFF file) entirely and prints it to the console.
- - Added the "Verbose" option just for the heck of it.
- - No bugs fixed because: no bugs found.
-
- CHANGES FROM v1.1:
-
- - Implemented short versions of most commands.
- - Added the 'exporttsv' argument to export TAB-separated ASCII files without
- RFF headers.
- - Added the ability to scan exported files and report errors encountered in
- them. Not terribly useful as such, since the import methods apply the same
- comprehensive error checking routines. However, it provides a quick way of
- comparing exported files without actually printing them out.
