Status: offline 		Hey you guys....I wrote an equipment editor in JAVA and it seems to be almost working. Anybody want to be a beta tester?

I'm not sure it's really needed since we have BioEd already but I thought I'd ask.

Send me an email if you're intestested: larryfulkerson2002 (at) yahoo (dot) com

Source code is available also.

I'm assuming double clicking on equipmentEdit.jar will start it for you. You gotta have Java's runtime installed on your system for this to work of course.

When it starts you'll be prompted to load the equipment file you want to work with; just navigate to the file and double click on it. Then just edit away and don't forget to save your changes.

Lemme know if you have any problemos.

It appears that when you used the "&" sign, the text displayed a "&" in the tab descriptions on the top.

I would use "Attributes" instead of "Stuff" for the descriptions in the lower tabs, so that it'll look more professional. That, or if you're short on space in the tabs, do away with "Stuff" altogether on each of the tabs and make a title pane above the bottom tabs saying "Attributes".

Status: offline 		This is odd. There is something screwy with the text formatting on this board. I tried to list in the above post an "&", an "a", an "m", a "p", and a ";" all together in a string and within quotation marks, but it keeps returning simply an &...

I've tried to DL the file, but it comes out as a gibberish string of letters and numbers in a ZIP format. It looks nothing like the file name you have posted for the link.

Is this correct?

Um.......it's a JAR file. You're not supposed to read it. Sounds like you didn't delete the *.txt off the end of the file name. Just rename it to "equipment.jar" ( without the quotes )
and that will make it an executable that you should be able to double click on to get JAVA to launch it.

And by the way, here's an updated version of the program in question:

[ any *.eqp file ( equipment XML file should work as an input file and it will write out an XML file to be used by TOAW. ]
