I'm more worried about my best friend and my mom. Not so cool with that. (Especially since my parents actually kinda look like Dwarves. Short, immensely mechanically inclined, rotund folks, and my dad is awfully beardy.)

Was this the Tool that you can program a special shape to be designated so it can be mined, without you needing to actually Shape out the thing 50 time/z

I have a Spiral Ramp I need to go down a few Half Century Zs and its all in 5x5 blocks that make the shape...

No.  You are looking for Quickfort.  (There might be others, but that's the one I've used.)

How does everyone feel about the time it take to write changes?

[Blade_Train3r]

Patience is a virtue, so they say. I've never minded waiting a bit if I know why.

[MaximumZero]

Write changes to the game? I've never noticed any lag at all.

Write changes to the code? It's your schedule, man.

Runesmith works with the current version so I'm fine.  I just can't make my own memory offset files so yeah. 

[sizeak]

To zee game you Krazeee foool.

Anyway, I'm just looking into the memory leak Devek mentioned and debating whether to implement the csv/xml export in this release or later

Also, what stats need exporting?

[xtank5]

I guess if we could choose to export a certain group, all, or from a list would be cool, but that's up to you.

[sizeak]

I meant what info for a creature should I export, I mean I'm guessing people don't want all 60+ flags exporting, but then I could be wrong

It probably should be selectable, with 4 modes of export:
Complete - All[most] information DFHack reads
Important - All[most] information except flags that are of unknown effect
Dwarf - All information needed for fort mode (ie, no "diplomat" "invader", etc flags)
Barebones - Name, Creature Type, Skills+Attributes, Location, Personality/Traits

Well making it selectable would probably be best, but also a tad harder to implement. It's main use (for me at least) would be for community/succession games, since I seem to have developed issues with imagehosts lately. For specifically what I want it would probably be traits, appearance and likes/dislikes (although the latter two would need to be implemented into Runesmith themselves first >,< ) so I can put dwarves up . Manually typing and/or individually copy/pasting the traits of each dwarf for a 20+ dwarf immigration wave is... time consuming. And I've always hated any form of data capturing XD

That said, Dree12's suggestion seems pretty workable, but I've never actually fiddled with DFhack myself so... yeah.

And before they were implemented in Runesmith, they'd need implementing in DFHack How does check boxes sound for what to export? E.g. you go Tools->Export and up pops a form with a list of exportable items and you select which you want
