Homebrew Question Are there alternatives to vgedit?

[Muxi]

Unfortunately, the current version 1.1 of this tool does not close properly and will cause a system crash when run via the hb menu in applet mode. When running in high memory mode, it will close with an error message. However, the error-free version 1.0 cannot be controlled via the controller because the hid-fix is missing here. I already pointed this out on github, but so far there was no answer...
It is the only tool in my setting that does not yet run under ATM 0.10.2 (without having to edit the system_settings.ini accordingly to enable deprecated hid_mitm). Is there possibly an alternative that works under ATM without the "compatibility mode"?
Thanks in advance

The matter is settled. A friend of mine compiled the current build of vgedit for me, and the problem has been fixed.

Good to hear, as I'm not aware of any alternatives.

For those who want a working compiled version 1.1.1 of vgedit, I have attached the tool

I have found a better alternative to vgedit! The tool is called N-Xplorer!

N-Xplorer is great! I'm dropping by this thread though to say that I've updated vgedit to address a lot of these issues. It now handles much larger files, has line numbers, and has better cursor positioning..

Thanks for the feedback!

Is there any reason why you don’t use the system on screen keyboard?

I’m personally not a huge fan of console-specific APIs, and keeping it generic/controlled makes it easier to test and port to other consoles too.

I’m not opposed to someone helping PR in a form of system keyboard support, but I like how it feels currently, and how it’s consistent to debug across platforms.

I’d say this was a bigger problem in the previous version, the newer update addresses most issues that were had with the old keyboard.
