Any good text editor for R/B?

Seriously, if there's an alternative to hex editing, please let me know. I would like to change the text in my Blue hack.

I don't believe there's a R/B specific text-editing program, though I hear Thingy is good for general text editing. Do you have a table file?

Yeah, from that tutorial text file…. It's for some hex editor.

I used Thingy to edit the text in my hack.

In fact, I started writing a general-purpose R/B hacking tool 'bout a year ago. It was going to be able to edit Pokemon stats, game text, marts, basically the whole shebang (except for maps, seeing as how there's a decent map editor out there already)

That would be a great, seeing as there is no program that edits stats, marts, and etc. in R/B. :P

I got as far as writing the GUI before leaving it for dead, though. It might be a useful project to reconsider spending time on.

Sounds good. Anyways, where can I download this, Thingy? (lol.)
