ive tried to use this but when i tried doing the sample part and open up the map, it said the could not open file like i had protected it or something. the file was still 83 kb but i didnt do anything except delete the old chk file and put in the SAMPLE one.
i would use this a lot if it was easier but in future versions i think youll make it easy to use

So, about how long until you can release this program? I am anxiously waiting for it.

its in the DLDB already.
its very confusiong to use. but im waiting for the user interface thingy.
can you make it read scm/scx maps and then make it in chk? thatll be easier for me since my mpq thingy is weird...(maybe i dont know how to use it) i never used it before...just once when i tried to mod the units.
gj though...when i looked at prgram it was nice.
a bug: when it cannot open the file it crashes.
also a way to delete the temp file is that when you start the program it could check the comp for it, and if there is one, delete it.
saves a while for a the user.

My ideas for a copy-trigger program:
You have the triggers in some easy menu, be able to select certain, or all, triggers like selecting icons on your desktop(holding ctrl, shift, etc.) You can copy, cut, and paste. You can copy and paste, changing one number(Example: You can paste, and increase a certain number like
Players:
• Player 1
Conditions:
• Always.
Actions:
• Give all units owned by player 1+1 to player 2.
• Preserve trigger.
(Unrealistic trigger)
So, every time you paste it, it will add 1 to the player in the first player slot, and stuff like that. Allow it to do many math skills for that option though.

It's very nice already, just make all the players current player and let the program change just locations and switches

Wow, so many new replies...
To everyone who got the program to work for them: nice job! It's really not that hard, is it? Yeah, I know it might be a little hard or just weird to use, and being the first version, I'm not much surprised by some of the bugs.
My current project is developing a user interface to eliminate the need for the config file (it can be a hassle sometimes, I know). I've already got the basic programming down for stuff like push buttons and checkboxes (It's still a text-based console program), but I'm running into some funky issues. Like if you click the center of a checkbox, it won't toggle it. BUT, if you click slightly to the left or right, it works fine... kind of weird, huh? But after I can clear up all the new GUI issues, I can add in some new features, like being able to individually select what triggers to copy.
About being able to automatically read SCM/SCX files, I'm not sure how that will work. I think there's some developer's stuff out there for opening MPQ files, but for now, you're going to have to do the CHK extracting yourself. I personally use WinMPQ, and for me, it's easy to use and works great.
If you have any severe problems, PM me so I can try to fix the bug for the next release.
EDIT: fixed the checkbox bug... piece of cake

ok then, though you could this atleast attach it to the file for people that dont have it!
but anyways, ok then, maby you could rip off some of the program? but i think it has a copy right.
or u can make it when you open the scm/scx file it will open the MPQ thingy and do it automatically.
i know i can do this, i made a program to open other programs, like an mp3 so it opens windows media player. though i did that on visual basic, dunno about your compiler....
anyways...goodjob, i get it now, after i read the help like 20 times
