TextSmash is a Java-based text insertion tool designed to help you combine the contents of text files. For example, say you have an html file called "template.html." Within template.html is a <div> tag where you want the contents of your page, the file "article.html" to be inserted. Within article you want to place boilerplate copyright information, "footer.html." TextSmash is a simple command line utility that uses insertion variables to make this very easy.

Version 0.1.23.0 

Slag is a high-level, object-oriented, interpreted, programming language developed by PlasmaWorks. Slag is designed to be light and portable while retaining the benefits of more full-featured languages like Java and C#. Slag features an implementation of PlasmaCore, a hardware-accelerated graphics API also developed by PlasmaWorks. The combination of Slag and PlasmaCore allows cross platform games development in a high-level language without sacrificing the performance traditionally associated with native applications. All RiverMan Media games are now written with Slag and PlasmaCore technology.

The SlagEdit plug-in facilitates the use of Slag and PlasmaCore by providing a graphical Integrated Development Environment (IDE) built on the Eclipse platform.
