Does anyone actually use these? I think using one might make things a bit quicker, but none that I've used have worked very well, or haven't been very easy to use.

I'm actually working on a table editor (just to warm up my programming skills a bit, before I restart my script dumper ) and I'm wondering what features people would find helpful enough to actually use a utility to make/edit tables.

Here are some things I've thought of:

Intuitive interface - I'm thinking something with cells, kind of like Excel
Ability to insert alphabets at one time (English, and Japanese)
Unicode support

Maybes:

Relative searcher to find text in ROMs

I use TaBuLar too, I just wish that there was an option for the hiragana and katakana to be in Shift-JIS format instead of EUC. It would save me a step in converting my table with JWPCE.

I may as well say it before other people step in. UTF-8 support should also be an option. Several people argue that you shouldn't use anything else.

obviously flexibility wins everyone over. Selectable encoding from ASCII, S-JIS, EUC, and UTF-8 covers everybody's needs..
