Message: <blockquote data-quote="DMFTodd" data-source="post: 85876" data-attributes="member: 1202">"Exchange what data?" would be the first question. For my program, DM's Familiar, importing characters/monsters would be the important feature. My thinking is that I will import a stat block in text format. Most programs that create characters are going to be able to create stat blocks (PCGen, MasterTools, etc.-- I assume). If I can import a stat block then my program will work with most of them. There's no need for a XML data layout when simple text will do the trick. I'll be following CR's Standard Stat Block layout once I get to it.As for working with other programs, hadn't really considered it to much yet. Being able to link to a mapper program would be nice. It would be cool if I get Tablesmith to use my tables somehow (give me a random scroll based on the spells enterd in my program).</blockquote>
