Hi,
I have recently bought a cylcods card, before about two weeks ago I never knew any of this existed!. It got me really keen on my DS again. I looked and looked and could never find any programs to manage NDS files how I wanted it to, they were either not what I expected or written specfically for a certain make of flashcart. I started looking into the programming side of things and already being a Delphi programmer decided to write my own. I would therefore like to ask the users what they would like to see in a program that manages NDS files. I would also like to ask for some help, if anyone could provide me with the theory on how trimmers work, I will incorporate that into my program, and if anyone could give me an insight into how the bricker software works and give me some info on if the file that does brick your system is always teh same or if there are variated then I will try and incorporate bricker software detection into the program also.
Before I posted this I made sure that I was up to the task by using some information I found on the header file of the NDS roms to create a program that extracts and lists the roms true names with their icons. Initially it was a slow process and extracting the rom icons took several minutes, I have now refined the technique my program uses and it can do it in a matter of seconds.
If the project takes off and people really do want to help, I'll look at designing a website for the program but first things first, what would you all like to see in an NDS management program for the PC (and later on MAC as I will be writing in a portable variation of delphi that can be compiled on the MAC).
Cheers,

Very Sorry, I've clicked no the wrong board. Can this be moved to the utilities section please.
