I'm not in the chat all that often, but feel free to email me if you have any questions. If you do get Rex, note that the latest version available to download is really out of date, so it doesn't support some of the newest, somewhat rarely used, Smash commands. [Unless you're doing complex coding, you probably wouldn't need those commands anyway.] Also, I could email any Smash developers my current working version of Rex (Python source code only) which also somewhat fixes problems with getting it to run on Windows 7, but it's not ready for "official" release.
