I'm not a programmer but I have an idea of what are easy applications to make. Could somone who does programming whip up a text formatter ap , so that they guys that post the recon data can have the raw data turned into something that anyone would understand.

I don't expect the guys posting to format them to be easy to read by hand everytime , but a simple ap they could cut and past the messages into that reformats and into something that breaks down each line with lables , that they could then cut and past onto the forums rather then the raw data would be heavenly.

Anyone capable and willing to whip something like that up ?

I've already created a decoder in Excel. It's on the bottom of the Storm2k Recon Page at http://tropicalupdates.nhcwx.com/recon.htm
