I posted a new parser that outputs the mundane items twice. One output is formatted with cost as "string", the description as "flavor", and a "mitype" field. Those entries are under "reference.items" along with all the magic items. The other output is the same as before. Those entries are under "reference.mundaneitems". Going directly to the module works as before and references the old window types ("referencearmor", "referenceweapon", and "referenceequipment".) Going through the Items interface now also works.
I have higher priority items

Absolutely, thanks for the work you do put in Moon, and thanks valeros for keeping the parser working

Hi mrgrey this is a tool written by valeros - it exists in the form you see here. Im sure you could get it to run in a WineSkin with some effort though.

I don't suppose there's an alternative to this that works on Linux, is there?

The problem is, the web browser component of .Net doesn't work on Linux at all. If I had a copy of the source code, I could take a look at seeing if there's a way to do the same thing in Linux and get roughly the same output, but the only way to run this program on a Linux machine, until the Mono community come up with a replacement for libgluezilla, is with a VM running Windows.

The program doesn't start, near as I can tell. It certainly doesn't open a window of any description. As soon as I use wine or mono to open it, I first receive an error saying that libgluezilla is missing, followed by unhandled NullReferenceExceptions due to System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser not being available.

So another problem that I just found out that really makes removing the WebBrowser not an option is that the WebBrowser output changes the HTML. (It does things like changing the capitalization of tags and adding line breaks.) And the parser is extremely sensitive to the HTML being exactly as the WebBrowser provides. Sorry
