The Fight for universe mod seems to crash the Codex.  I suspect that it's because of the TC tag it has.
I've found a problem, it has a '\' character in the description
uploaded new version with fixes for Fight for universe

I'm developing a "Codex" application whose main purpose will be to balance ships. For now it only display ship stat.

To install unzip it in the main starfarer directory and start codex.exe
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) may be needed.

Should this Mac user get his hopes up, or is this solely a Windows-only utility?

To run on linux i have to recompiles all the libraries, it would require many hours. For now the priority is to improve the windows version.

Sounds good!  And it works good as well.  Good job!

Just a little nitpick, is there any way that you can adjust the window size , I mean as in like so i can see the balance tab in the ship section? because atm it's just cut off except for the letter B.
I just kinda want to be able to see the balance value at a glance, but don't mind me, just a little issue.

To change the window size you can edit ogre.cfg or alt-tab and drag the border of the window, but the balance column will not appear. Anyway the color of the name hints the balance values

In the next version i have increased the window size to completely show the balance column

Ahhh! the pretty rainbows make it so hard to balance :D

lol. Anyways, it's starting to look real good now, and I finally figured out that you linked op cost to the predicted score as I had no idea how it was generated xD

Added Right click scrolling and it's not very good?  I use it all the time now. ;D
It's getting along nicely.  You said you would be able to compare ships side by side and see the "wings?"  I'm not sure if you said any of that, but both aren't working, unless I've got something terribly wrong.  I can click the panels for ships, but I don't know that to do next.  I can click the Wings tab, but nothing shows up.

Never said that, but both features are planned. The wings tab is currently a placeholder
