Rafael Vuijk (https://github.com/darkfader) : For his useful simple tool called NDSTOOL which used by most NDS modification tool
Imam Chalimi Bin Moeslim : For the header ripping script, teacher !
@Pk11 : For debugging, Hint and Help text suggestions, would be embarassing if the Help still using my terrible english :rofl2:
@LeonPro12 : For suggesting the NDS ROM Title, its cute to know how the developer name their game in no more than 12 characters, like old gen Pokemon names :ha:
@The Real Jdbye : Thanks Cyndaquil guy, for your suggestion to additional parameter options for Region and Code, this really help me to collect NDS Data to make future renaming faster :lol:
@MythicalData : For emulator configuration supports, im forget that emulators always save their special configurations for each ROM on their configuration file, dont worry i keep working on it, making sure that with this your great idea, everyone that running NDS on Consoles or Emulators can enjoy NeatDS without losing their last configuration :yay: (suggest me more Emulators that saving their configuration on separated file, so i can learn it :()
@alexander1970 : This man keeps support me, and like saying "you can do it !" in his silence on liking each of my post :blush:

NeatDS is a tool to tidy your NDS ROM Collections name, by utilizing its built-in information. Yesterday, i have made the NeatDS 1.0, but its very simple compared with this version, and this is 12 main features made it not simple anymore :
  1. BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY : Even NeatDS using modern components made since Windows Vista, NeatDS still works on Windows XP and older.
  2. HELP MODE : It will show you each of components description inside the NeatDS.
  3. CACHED : All processed NDS ROM File information will be cached to NeatDS configuration data, to speed-up renaming if you have newer idea how your NDS ROM Files should be renamed.
  4. STORED : All NeatDS configuration data is stored to system, never lost your last work setting again.
  5. DIRS or FILES : NeatDS now able to process all NDS ROM Files inside a directory, or just specified files.
  6. EDIT : Have mistake on adding directory / file? just edit it, select the file you want to change, then click edit
  7. FILE TO MODIFY : Some emulator store NDS ROM configuration into a file which is loaded everytime the related NDS ROM File loaded to it. With "File to Modify" you can add those file which contains name of the NDS ROM File, and we'll change it too
  8. SCANOVER : When your save or related files is saved on the different location with the NDS ROM files, we can rename them too, just add that location on list, and choose the Scanover method.
  9. RESET : Clean up all saved NeatDS configuration data.
  10. HISTORY : All renaming session will be logged into History list.
  11. RESTORE : Restore renaming session, the files and directories item on a selected session in history will be restored, make it simply to do the new renaming session to the same specified files and directories.
  12. UNDO : Restore renamed file(s) to its original name (the last name before renamed) on a selected session.
{known bugs}
  1. When you try to rename file which has the same format with given format, it will be added (n) n = the number of count of same file name, in the same directory. solutions : you can select specified file which not have the same naming format, or rename the file to other name first before renaming it using NeatDS
Please tell me when you find another bugs.
If you will, for faster respond, you can mention me :)

{tutorial : the simplest way}
1. Run the program, then on Targets section,
click "+DIR" to add folder which contain your NDS ROM collections or folder which contains file that related to NDS ROM you want to process.
Use "+FILE" to add specified NDS ROM file instead

2. On Parameter Options, configure your naming formats, you can right-click each textbox for guide.
The first text box contains naming format.
The second textbox contains file extensions that related to your processed files.
".SAV" and ".DSV" will renamed automatically, so you dont need to add them here

3. If you're using an emulator that store NDS ROM information in a configuration file, you can click the "Dirs / Files with NDS" button to switch to "Files to Modify" section.
Here add that configuration file, so we can edit them too

4. Choose the scanover mode, this scanover will scan all given folders for any related files with extensions given on "Additional Extensions" in "Parameter Options" section.
