Introducing Kobo Patch GUI
This is a simple GUI for editing the unofficial kobo patch files. It is written in Python, and uses Tk/Tkinter for its interface.
The GUI is currently quite limited. It has the following features:
There is currently no way of making custom changes (such as changing margins, etc) or saving changes for the next version of patches. I hope to be able to create these features someday.
Download
Downloads are available from github here.
Installation/Usage
Unzip the archive to a folder of your choosing and run KoboPatchGUI.pyw.
Python 2.7.x or 3.4.x+ is required to run this GUI. For Windows users, a standard installation of Python should be sufficient. Linux users may require Tk from their distro's software repository. Mac OS X users will have to tell me if the program works or not, as I am unable to test.
The GUI works best with the latest versions of the Patch files provided by GeoffR, from version 3.19.5613. Note that GeoffR has added a feature in the patch files to assist this GUI, which was NOT in the initial release. It his highly recommended to download the latest version of the patch before using this GUI.
USE THIS PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK. WHILE IT SHOULDN'T CAUSE ISSUES, I CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL NOT.
Note that I am at best a part time hobby programmer. Therefore my code may not follow all best practices, or be all that efficient.
The code can be found at my Github account here. I welcome any improvements or added features.

- Disable all patches
- Checking for mutually exlusive options*
- Crude tooltip help
