Engel, Jr. : > It might be interesting to turn the core of the editor into a file server (in addition to its on-screen interface). Interesting thought. > Have a directory with files representing the individual layers so they can be edited directly using outside tools and scripts. Actually, that's what it looks like in the on-disk file format. Nothing prevents you from editing the individual layers in these folders, that's what I do for testing. > Have another for brushes (categories of brushes as subdirectories under the "brushes" directory, etc.). That's also planned. It's possible I'll have to change the current layout a bit though. > Find some way to represent tools as files you can write commands to or something perhaps... Interesting idea. The question is, do we need that? At the moment I can just edit all the files as they are: the layer files, the layer config, in the future also the brushes and the brush settings. You just can't change that on the fly. sirjofri
