Viktor, come on. It can't be that hard to make up a few categories to sort the tools...
Disk, graphic, music, other as the main categories I would say. You can then subdivide those main categories even further, like the graphics category into all the various modes, sprite- and charset tools...
Same with music: Music editors, ripper-tools, ...

Look at the main FTPs. They will have some idea. I suggest breaking them up into things like Gfx, Sound, Development, Compression, Archival/Backup, Disk, Noters, Misc. There may be some more you could add. Seems to work well for most places. |

Something else that might help is making the database accessible for beta testers. If you you see the database actually working new ideas/suggestions pop up that can be usefull. |

And what should i do with the multiple graphics mode editors? (ex: multi+hires) Need I a new category for these?

Yep, why not make subcategories for the various graphic modes? You could try if it is sensible to really split it up into all the submodes, or if Hires/Multicolour will do. Depends on how many editors you have gathered. |

I Check some editors, and there are many mixed type.
Editor with char and sprite, editor with multi and hires.
If i make Gfx/HIRES and Gftx/Multi groups, when i get an editor with multi AND hires support, in wich category must i put it in?

both, you can add that to the record, think not like a 'directory structure'or something where an item can only be put in one place. But make the record, and add the details for it, so in this example: program type: hires editor, multi editor

For the offline using, i use only simple directory like structure in the database.
