    • generating a përs from a pilot file


      I know this isn't a forum for developers, but I thought some here might have an interest:

      Earlier this month I posted some working drafts of something I was calling persMaker. It read EVO pilot files and generated plugins that have per resources in them (along with govt and spob resources, if necessary).

      Well, the program was a mess of code. It was more of a proof of principal and a testbed for some new subroutines I'd been thinking of.

      I tore the whole thing apart and recoded everything, making everything as modular as I could for use in future projects. The end result is an open beta
      (url="http://"http://www.hellskitchen.org/~seant/EV/persMaker/PersMaker1.0b.sit")http://www.hellskitc...rsMaker1.0b.sit(/url)

      I still haven't implemented some aesthetic aspects, nor have I removed all the modular code I don't need, but I'm looking for feedback on how it works for people and what, if anything people would like to see.

      I thinks it's slicker that the PFE. PFE was my first RealBasic project, so the subroutines are fairly crappy. The code I'm using in PersMaker is much slicker. Less eye candy, but I'm pleased.

      Ditto.
