Beardface has developed a new homebrew application for the Wii coders out there who want to try out new things on their Wii. It’s called EasyIOS v0.1.2, and it allows users to browse the device tree and try out quick IOS commands without doing builds.

Beardface notes in his disclaimer that the only people who should be using it are the folks who know why they are using it.

Furthermore, there’s a warning on top of the Wiki page with all this information that says that this may contain malicious code, so you should be well warned by now about the application.

That being said, if you know why you’re using this homebrew, and aren’t afraid of the file, here’s the changelog for the application from version 0.1 onwards.
