# ResForge
ResForge is a resource editor for macOS, capable of editing classic resource fork files and related formats. Based on [ResKnife](https://github.com/nickshanks/ResKnife) by Nicholas Shanks and Uli Kusterer, this derivative of the project has been rewritten for modern macOS systems.
### Features
* Hexadecimal editor, powered by [HexFiend](https://github.com/HexFiend/HexFiend).
* Template editor, supporting a wide array of [field types](https://github.com/andrews05/ResForge/tree/master/ResForge/Template%20Editor#template-editor).
* User-defined templates, loaded automatically from resource files in `~/Library/Application Support/ResForge/`.
* Template-driven bulk data view, with CSV import/export.
* Generic binary file editor, via the `Open with Template…` menu item.
* Image editor, supporting 'PICT', 'PNG ', 'PNGf', 'cicn' & 'ppat' resources, plus view-only support for a variety of icons and other bitmaps.
* Sound editor, supporting sampled 'snd ' resources.
* Dialog editor, supporting 'DITL' resources (by Uli Kusterer)
* Menu editor, supporting 'MENU', 'CMNU' & 'cmnu' resources (by Uli Kusterer)
* Tools for EV Nova, including a sprite (rlëD) editor, a ship animation (shän) editor and a galaxy viewer.
### Supported File Formats
* Macintosh resource format, in either resource fork or data fork.
* Rez format, used by EV Nova.
* Extended resource format, defined by [Graphite](https://github.com/TheDiamondProject/Graphite).
* MacBinary encoded resource fork.
* AppleSingle/AppleDouble encoded resource fork.
