== Software to Use With Stendhal ==

* [https://github.com/Ryochan7/antimicro AntiMicro]

** Because of its text-based player-npc interaction and mouse-click battle systems Stendhal isn't really designed to be played using a gamepad or joystick. However, I myself still enjoy using a gamepad for walking and exploring. AntiMicro is the best utility I have found for mapping keyboard input to a gamepad or joystick.

** Another great feature that can be useful in Stendhal is its ability to define macros. For example, a button can be set up to execute a command to say "Hi". Just add a key combination like the following: "H" + "I" + "Enter".

** Cross-platform and open-source. I have tested it on these systems: Windows Vista and 7 (32/64 bit), Debian Linux 8, and FreeBSD 10.

* [https://mathewsachin.github.io/Captura/ Captura] (''<span style="color:darkred;">discontinued</span>'')

** An excellent screen capturing tool. Unfortunately, not cross-platform. It supports encoding with FFmpeg & some other tools (which I haven't used yet).

** Windows only and open-source.

* [https://hexchat.github.io/ HexChat]

** My favorite IRC client for chatting on the [https://web.libera.chat/?channels=#arianne,#arianne-chat Arianne libera.chat channels]: #arianne and #arianne-chat

** Cross-platform and open source.

* [https://quiterss.org/ QuiteRSS]

** An excellent desktop RSS/Atom feed reader. Use it to keep track of <span class="plainlinks">[https://stendhalgame.org/trade/ offers made]</span> with <npc>Harold</npc>.

** Cross-platform and open-source.

== Tools for Development ==

=== Graphics ===

* [https://www.gimp.org/ GIMP]

** The most popular free & open source photo & graphics editor.

* [https://inkscape.org/ Inkscape]

** Editor for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics Scalable Vector Graphics] (SVG).

* [https://krita.org/ KRITA]

** Just discovered this one. Don't know much about it yet, other than it is creating graphics.
