Is there any 'text file' editing?
« on: June 02, 2021, 05:55:26 AM »
For example -- I want to automate the process. So for example, I could automate adding in commands in a text file. As a basic example -- like, I run a script to add into the settings file that would do something like 'On VERONICA press V'. Is it possible? I know there is command line scripts and the like but I don't know about this. I tried looking for settings files and I only got indecipherable binary type files.

Profiles are stored in a database file, which is not intended to be edited with external tools (let alone be human readable).

Theoretically it's possible to create an XML-formatted .vap file that you can import, but that would not be supported, and the file format is not documented.

That's a shame, but it's not a complete roadblock, I can still use something like PYAUTOGUI to automate creating the commands.
