IniRedit - a GUI Ini/Cfg Editor
« on: January 15, 2015, 06:18:17 pm »
Evening.

As part of another project, I needed a GUI ini/cfg editor in which you could use standard windows type controls (dropdowns, colour pickers etc) to set key values. Not many out there, so had to make one.

This allows you to view and edit ini/cfg files more easily than using notepad etc. It also allows you to construct schema/template files for inis. Full command line support - so people developing their own apps can integrate it. Dunno if it may prove useful to anyone.

On the advice of the wise, bit the bullet and plunged into Visual Basic. My first forray, so likely some runtime bugs. Just post any bugs on the codeplex site and I shall endeavor to correct...

Some screenies:

From this....

To get a feel for the basic utilization, just drag and drop any emulator ini's or cfg's onto the IniRedit.exe.

You can download it here:

I aint no coder by trade, so can't promise perfection, but will try to help out where can.

It looks very cool!
It would be perfect if It could also edit xml files.

Do you know a program that It can manage xml files?

Thanks!

Thanks.

Naw - it doesn't do xml files. That'd have to be a separate app entirely. Sure there's plenty out there via Google?
