Yeah but it's best if it scans the first few bytes of the content, in case someone has QuickTime Player a game/mario level starting with QT on his calc.

LOL

Ok, now that that's all cleared up...I can save the menu for later. New progress forthcoming!

Ok cool to hear new progress is coming! Good luck with the menu.

Thx...time to go check WikiTI for info on the VAT. Mario 2.0 did it, so can I.

The above overestimated my programming ability by leaps and bounds and should be disregarded

Here's some help on the subject: http://ourl.ca/7202/122628

Good luck on it.

Ok, progress:

I have kludged reading from appvars and created a human-unusable level editor.

Next step is to make all of this useful. This may take a while.

Nice to see new updates!

Yeah I hope you make it user-friendly, because then few people may use the level editor. There's a reason why so few people code for BBC Basic compared to Axe. (although BBC Basic can do great stuff too)

Haha yeah probably none of my level editors are friendly at all.  The least friendly one being the Portal editor, which is awful everything from the external level handling, to the way levels are edited is just horrendous. 

Well im not talking so much the way it handles the levels so much as the general interface.  In order to edit a level you had already made, you had to play it in the game, then press a special key which would save the pic, then quit, go back to the editor, recall the pic, erase all the things besides the tiles, and put back in everything else and every button had a different object, instead of like a menu or something.  And you could only have 1 custom level at a time, instead of as many as you want
