So after starting to mod again after a lot of years I couldn't really get Excel not to f**** up my d2 .txt files.
I used the commonly used D2Excel tool which worked, but I found it was missing a lot of quality of life features.
So I made my own D2Excel and called it D2Excel Plus (because I'm bad with names).
