Razor BoD Parser
A while back I started looking for some tool that I could use to list my BoDs and possibly piece them together for me. I couldn't find one that would work on my server, and do it with little effort. So, over the past 2 weeks I have been working on a BoD parser in my spare time. It parses the BoD Book packets logged by Razor(v1.0.0). If you look at my screenshots of the application it has a set of filters like on the BoD book, but it has one extra feature. It has the ability to piece together your BoDs and determine which BoDs you have the entire set for.
I also plan on adding more functionality if there is enough interest as follows:
The server I play on uses client version 5.0.6 up to just before 6.0.0. I think soon after OSI reworked a lot of their packets, and I'm not sure if BoD book gumps were affected by this change. I would expect this application to work on all servers pre-6.0.0 that haven't don't extensive remodeling to their BoD system.
So, the real reason for the post is to see if there would be a lot of interest in the application. If there is a lot of interest I would update it to account for new packet configurations and also make it more adaptable to heavier private server changes.

- The ability to see how many items within a certain non-complete Large BoD you own. (I plan on doing this either way)
- Saving and loading your BoDs.
- Multiple BoDs that are identical get stacked into the same list entry.
- New column for the list of BoDs for book name and page #.
- Item types represented in editable data for private server flexibility.
