Windows/Linux NKM Editor

I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum.
A while back, I made an NKM Editor for Mario Kart DS. It works on Windows and Linux, I made a Linux one. It is a fairly simple and straightforward program to use, and I hope that it helps some people.

The features in this program are adding/removing entries from sections, editing entries, and a map viewer for some of the sections. The map viewer can also display points on top of a loaded KCL, if there is one.

If this is all super confusing, here's a simple guide to using it.
To load an NKM file, you can set the NKM to open with the editor, run it with command line arguments, or just type the path of the file in when you open it.
Examples:
Run with command line arguments:

nkm course_map.nkm

Type file path into the program:

nkm
File name: course_map.nkm

The commands in the editor are:
add, autoy, calc, clear, delete, edit, exit, help, kcl, map, reload, save, saveas, select, switch, unselect, view, window.
Each command takes either no parameters or one parameter, so don't put quotation marks around parameters. It'll mess things up.
In order, these are how to use the commands.

add
Adds an entry to the current section.

add

Upon running the code add command, you will be prompted for section specific information.

autoy

autoy

Toggles auto-y, which is disabled by default, and can only be enabled when a KCL is loaded. This is useful for EPOI, IPOI, etc. for when you just know the x and z coordinate. When it is enabled, some sections won't prompt for a y-coordinate and will only prompt for it afterward if it determines that the specified x and z coordinates don't contain any triangles.

calc

calc

Only for the CPOI section, and is used for calculating things like sin and cos, as well as distance.

clear

clear

This clears out all entries in the current section.

delete

delete

Deletes the currently selected item from the current section. Although be careful, the program still crashes if the selected item is out of bounds. (28th item in a 27 item list).

edit

edit

Edits the currently selected item of the current section. This prompts the user for some section-specific information and writes the changes to the selected item. Empty fields default to zero and are still updated.

help

help

Views a list of commands, and a brief overview of their functionalities.

kcl

kcl

Loads a KCL. Upon running this command, the user is prompted for a KCL file to open. This KCL is then used for things like auto-y and the map view.

map

map

Views the loaded KCL from a bird's eye view, along with some of the sections. This only works once a KCL has been loaded.

reload

reload [i]section[/i]

reload all

Reloads a specific section from the file, in case you mess something up, or reloads the entire file.

save

save

Saves the changes made to the NKM to the disk. The file will not save unless you run this command.

saveas

saveas

This does the same thing as the save command, except it allows saving to another file or location.

select

select n

This selects the nth item from the current section. Useful for editing/deleting.

switch

switch s

This command allows you to switch to edit/view a different section. In the command, s is the name of the section you wish to switch to.

unselect

unselect

If you want to be sure that you aren't currently selecting anything, this command unselects the currently selected item.

view

view

This command views all of the entries in the current section, and all their information.

window

window

This command sets the viewport for the map command. It prompts the user for xmin, xmax, ymin, and ymax.

Anyway, I hope this helps some people, and isn't a completely useless waste of space.
