Oh my Goddess!

I just tried out your programs Zeno, and I want to kick myself for not using them earlier! They're awesome!

Thank you!

Uhh, how about a teensy bit more info on where to put these and how to use them? The readme doesn't seem to include these basics.

I can't get it to work, I get this big fat "File Not Found" error...

OK, got it, was a 3-step process

For the component modder -

1. Under File menu, select "Set SE4 Directory", change mask in the file selection window from *.txt to *.*, then locate the SE4 executable. Ignore error noise and message.

2. Under File menu, select "Select TechArea File". Browse to relevant data directory, and select the TechArea.txt file. Ignore error noise and message.

3. Under File menu, select "Load". Browse to relevant data directory, and select the Components.txt file. NOW you should see data in the windows, and a pretty picture where it formerly displayed an ugly "File Not Found" error message.

Like everyone else, I thank you for this. Maybe you could add the three steps above to the README, and spare boneheads like me the potential confusion

Yeah, me, back for a third post on this topic. I thought about where I'd left this, Zeno, and I wasn't happy with that.

I came off sounding like a total ingrate, and that's not right. You've invested effort here, and given something to the community, and it's not right to meet a gift with any criticism at all.

I'm sorry, Zeno. You done good, and we DO appreciate it.
