MCTool has just been updated to version 0.16. This is mainly a bugfix release, although it offers a couple of new features as well.

MCTool is a program to fix the errors and sort the entries of your media cards straight from the DS.

Changelog:
- Added ability to choose how to repair every single error.
- Added automatic repair mode.
- Added MC switch feature.
- Display detected flashcart.
- Wait for all keys to be released upon initialization.
- Patched double files count when verifying.
- Tested and added new SC Lite driver.
- Cleaned up code.
- Started development of a GBA version (which will not be released soon, so don't ask! ;)).
- Compiled with new DevKitPro r20.
- Other bugfixes I cannot remember :).

Make sure to read the README, as it has been updated with tons of info!

The program is released under the GPL. Please report any comments/bugs/appreciations :). E-mail is the preferred way, as there are too many forums out there and I can't read them all!

Disclaimer:
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PROGRAM MESSES WITH THE FILESYSTEM OF YOUR MEDIA CARD, WHICH MIGHT RESULT IN A DATA LOSS. THEREFORE, BEFORE USING IT, ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF ANY IMPORTANT DATA.

Not a lot of response for a very useful tool. DSOrganize still screws with my card (orphaned long filenames and such), yet I can repair it without a PC using this tool. Great stuff.
