Hi all,

Update: Version 1.1 released - see this post for details.

I knocked this together to help me write my articles as I got fed up with typing BBCode tags manually but figured it might be useful to others

It's nothing fancy, just a Windows text editor that helps you out with a handful of buttons for inserting BBCode tags.

It's written in C# 2008 so requires the .Net Framework 3.5 to run and I've only tested it on Windows Vista so it may or may not work with XP / 2000

Big Important Note! This tool is provided as-is. That means that if it does go terribly wrong and delete all your files or turn your computer into a fireball, I accept no responsibility - you use this tool at your own risk

Some tips: If you click a BBCode button with no text selected it will insert the tags at the current cursor position then put the cursor between the tags. If you click a BBCode button with some text selected it will wrap the text with the tags then place the cursor after the closing tag.

Installation: Unzip the .exe file

Screenshots: (sorry, there really isn't that much to see )






If you notice any bugs, please let me know.

Thanks,
Alan
