Description

Description:

Full workspace

Complete script tool suite Bohemia Interactive's game engine used in ARMA II and ARMA 3. Poseidon Tools supports all text files (Scripts & configs) used by the Real Virtuality. It includes:

Poseidon Tools
FSM Editor
TexView 2
TM4 Indenter
Tail for Win32

Initially, this project was named "BI PTE" (BI Plain Text Editor) and was renamed Poseidon Tools when it was publicly released, in august 2013. So, the name, Poseidon Tools, is a tribute to the very first version of the Real Virtuality engine, "Poseidon", which is the base of all the Arma series.

Distraction Free Mode and full screen
Split Editing (Can display up to four file on the same screen)
Auto Completion (based on commands and existing text in the file)

Persistent sessions
Snippets (eg: file header, control structures, game functions etc…)
Syntax highlighter (for SQF (from Operation Flashpoint to arma 3), SQM, HPP, CPP, EXT…)
Full support of SQF & SQS, XML, Cpp, CFG, RPT
Can open RPT from the menu (Arma 3, Arma 3 diagnostic, Arma 2…)
Can open SQM, BIEDI with Arma 3
Magic key F8
File diff
Support of Mikero Tools
Support of Arma 3 Tools
Refresh the opened files everytime you get back to it
Macro creation
Documentation link
and so on...

Notes

Some features require Arma 3 Tools installed;
Some other features require Mikero Tools installed;
Every new release require a full clean install;
This is not an official tool, use at your own risks;
Documentation is here: http://tom4897.info/projects/poseidon-tools/
