CHDK Config File Editor

Photography aficionados who use tweaking software such as the Canon Hack Development Kit on their cameras might prefer to adjust their configuration files even more. CHDK Config File Editor was developed in order to provide users with an accessible way of browsing and editing the CFG files for the CHDK configuration.

Normally, the configuration files used by the CHDK package aren’t available in a user-friendly form and CHDK Config File Editor will help people by providing a readable preview of the files.

In order to offer an in-depth editing of the parameters that control the camera enhancement package, this application allows users to edit both the CFG files as well as the OSD entries contained within them.

Being based on the tables that constitute the CHDK package’s architecture, these two editors can easily be updated if the package’s features are altered. One needs to update the tables and the configuration files will relay the changes sustained in the package.

In order to increase the handling efficiency, the application allows users to save the edited OSD entries to text format, which can be later on imported into the CFG files. Having said that, people are advised to use the files produced by the OSD editor and not attempt to create the text files from scratch.

Experienced users who prefer to deal with the editing process even more in-depth, might be happy to know that upon the completion of the editing process, the application yields a debug log file.
