... is the beginning of a project to make an editor that will allow users to create stepcharts, and actually export them in Dance Dance Revolution's SSQ format.
And yes, the column on the left will have the beat / measure information, and not just a spamming of "BLARG!".
Despite the (wonky looking) support for doubles charts in appearance, this is currently cosmetic (-ish - as you can actually place step arrows for the P2 side whose values can be collected for actual SSQ file generation). Before I really support Doubles mode chart creations, I still have a ton of features to add support for - such as freezes, BPM changes, pauses, and maybe even shock arrows, as well as support for actually loading decompressed stepfiles.
I would like to, eventually, add support for compressing the data for re-insertion into a DDR title, but that requires either finding a tool that can compress data into Konami's brand of LZ77 compression, or making a tool hat does this, which ... frankly, I do WANT to try, but am not thrilled about, seeing that I am a bit derpy when it comes to reading and understanding how LZ77 works, at least until I find a guide that explains it a certain way.
