DB for C#?

Has anybody seriously considered automating portions of DB?

I rarely am able to get myself mentally together enough for coding, but I just finished C# code for a small DLL that wound handle the Random Encounter Turn Tracker.

If I ever manage to slap a GUI front end on to it (GUIs being the hardest part of coding for me), is there any interest? Be warned that I have no clue what if anything would be needed to adapt Windoze C# GUI code for Mono.

DB Turn Tracker

Ladies and gentlemen, announcing my first ever software in wide release. (This fact may not be important to anybody else, but it is to me. )

DB Turn Tracker v1.0 is a small, very simple utility to manage the DB Random Encounter Turn Tracker. It provides the turn number, indication of a random encounter, and controls for adjusting the tracker in a standard DB progression.

::Geek Stuff::
For those interested in incorporating this functionality into a larger DB automation project, all "business logic" is contained within a DLL file, and the EXE simply provides the GUI interface.
::End Geek Stuff::

The GUI may not be pretty, but I'm a developer, not a graphic designer. It does NOT support visual styles. If anyone wants to create an icon for the program, feel free to upload it and I'll take a look.

DB Turn Tracker requires the Microsoft .NET Framework v2.0 be installed on your system to operate. If its not already on your system, it can be found in the optional software section of Windows Update. I do NOT know if this software will function with Mono (.NET for *nix) "as is", as I have virtually 0 *nix experience and none in development. This is Windoze software.

DB Turn Tracker is licensed (I know, dirty word, but wait . . .) under the FSF GPL, v3.0. It includes C# source code with project/solution files for #Develop, a free and open source IDE. If you aren't familiar with the GPL, it basically means that you're free to redistribute it, modify it, or do whatever else you want with it, except you can't claim it as your own work and you can't take away these rights from anybody else you give it to. More details here at the GPL FAQ.

(For the record, the .NET Framework qualifies as system libraries under GPL v3, and therefore it's source is NOT included or available.)
