m3x-text

For experienced users (or console fans like myself), m3x-text can be a great tool. It allows us to modify an m3x database without launching X. However, it requires some understanding of what goes on inside m3x. This shouldn't be a problem I think, it is pretty straigh-forward. Just look at the sample scripts and the example database, and you'll get the idea.

You can see screenshots of m3x-text in action by viewing Figure 3 or Figure 4.

For command-line syntax and options, please refer to the man page. In this documentation we'll focus on error messages and possible solutions.
