Do anyone know any cross-picture-editor for VG5000 similar to cgedit? (
http://www.openspc2.org/~bgm/CG700/index.html - it runs fine on Wine, btw )
(btw, talking about cgedit, here is some stuff made from that:
http://text-mode.tumblr.com/tagged/SharpSCII - i guess more can be find somewhere at
http://twitter.com/youkan700 ,
http://twitter.com/kirai_s ,
http://twitter.com/ktwfc ,
http://twitter.com/mtchocolate , etc. - so woud be really great seeing similar stuff made for VG5000/Alice32-90 vdp!

i found some code sketch, or mockup, about how would be such editor:

of course that a lot need to be improved and become more accurate (load, save, import, export, text/“setet” x2 scale, multicolor, etc.), and perhaps it might have ideas for people that wanted to develop a similar editor
it would be like cgedit, rexpaint, etc. - i guess it is really needed for VG5000 (actually it is really needed for me!
)

Considering your first message, I was not sure you were creating the editor. Are you?
Is this in SDL Basic ?

while i’m not finding, i’m trying to develop one (a bit slowly i confess)
it’s in sdlBasic indeed - on GNU/Linux it uses Zenity for accessing the file manager via command-line (on other operating systems i have no idea how to do that) - the binary format used is still embryonic, and no setet/seteg bitmaps there yet as well, and the editor still doesn’t edit setet/seteg yet
i might recode it in Python-Pygame or Löve (Lua+SDL) soon, but i have no idea when i’ll do it
besides getting a minimally useful editor, would be great if anyone could get ideas from this one (and whatever similar editors), and perhaps improving it a lot, and using other technologies (like using html5, java, lazarus/delphi, etc.)

a minimally working version:

now we can edit setet/seteg, load and save - i’ll try to test it more

Nice. From where are you loading the picture ?

thanks!
i remade it on my own, using this editor i started to code on sdlBasic (see that the editor is still very far for decently usable, but was enough for making this one - so i guess anyone is invited to improve it, or coding an editor better than this one!
)
i’m sharing as attachment in this message the resulting file
it allows saving and loading, but i didn’t test it anywhere else, like using it on Boriel’s ZX-Basic Compiler
the format is a mere dump of setet+seteg+text+attribute areas (960+960+1000+1000 bytes = 3920 bytes)
(i didn’t try to analyze Salut l’Artiste format enough yet, it looks a bit confusing for now, i wonder why it used 6kb when 4kb was enough...)

perhaps we could extract these pictures from .mrx files, couldn’t we?
(i imagine that .mrx files also contains ef9345 memory dump?)
but anyway, i think i’m not “losing time” using this “editor”, since i need to test it as well
