Yeah, a Linux version would be nice as well.

I'd be happy to release the source for DSCovery.exe in the next build of someone can guarantee porting it to linux/mac. I currently have neither and wouldn't know where to start.
Or if anyone wants to start from scratch with a linux/mac version I'd be more than happy to give out the details of exactly what DSCovery does, but then, most of that can be guessed anyway.

Well as DSCovery.exe is written in C# porting might not be difficult except drive letter thing(if I can find how to "make").

Where do I get it from?
m3sakura_make.7z in mshl2tools page

Wow! It works much faster than I thought it would, even on my DSi (it seems that my m3iZero works faster on DSLite than on DSi).
Xenon, you truly are a homebrew hero.

OK, about the Linux/blah support requests, spinal_cord, you don't need to move to C# if you want cross-platform compatibility. Look into the Mono runtime, it's a cross-platform reimplementation of the .NET runtime, and .NET versions up to and including 3.5 are supported. You might be seeing mentions of C# around the site, but that's for a C# compiler.

Basically, just install Mono, open Terminal and go "mono /path/to/program.exe".

There may be changes needed though for things that are explicitly Windows

Considering the date of this project and how new .NET 4.0 is I would expect that you're not programming this on .NET 4.0.

^linux is free, why can't you try it out?

Have a couple of times, don't like it.
I'm with you Spinal.

I had Ubuntu with the Breryl 3D desktop all running beuitifully on my laptop. I loved the look and feel but everytime I wanted an app 9/10 it was for windows so I had to F around and use crossover or wine with mixed results.

In the end it drove me nuts and I went back to windoze.
