CHT is the filetype that the EZTeam uses for their cheat files.

The files are simple text based files in a specific format/structure.

That structure looks like this :

[Cheat Description]

  Self explanatory header

ON=xxxxxxxx,xx

  The first part is required for all basic ON/OFF cheats. The second part is a 16 digit hexidecimal memory location. A comma then 
  separates the values to be poked (or put) into the memory location. Multiple values can be input, separating each one with a
  comma.

[Cheat Description]

Effect1=

Effect2=

  Cheats can also have a single heading and multiple choices. An example may be Street Fighter where you can choose your start up 
  character or a shoot-em-up where you can choose the guns you have.

[GameInfo]

  This tells EZManager/EZClient what details follow. I do not believe this information is used in any way.

NAME=

  Freeform text, usually specifying the rom release name / details.

System=GBA

  Details which specify the platform or target hardware the cheat file is for.

Text=

  Freeform text, again usually specifying the rom / game name.

Here is an example cheat file :

[Inf Gold]
ON=454E0,FF
[Inf Health]
ON=457AF,20
[Inf Lives]
ON=408D0,9
[Invincible]
ON=455E8,C8
[GameInfo]
Name=1077 - ¼ÓÀձȺ£µÁ [Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl]
System=GBA
Text=¼ÓÀձȺ£µÁ

Cheat Editors

Two cheat editors are available for users today. Both have been written by different members of the Unofficial EZ-Flash Forums.

CHTED was written by Slade and is a program designed to allow loading, editing, saving and verifiying of CHT files. Current version is 1.9. You can download the file here.

EZ-Cheat was written by Hankchill and comes in both a Windows and MacOS binary. From the read me: 'Basically, EZ-Cheat is a tool available for Windows 98/NT/2000/XP and Mac OS X that allows you to open, modify, and create your own Cheat (.cht) files for use with either the SuperCard (SD or CF) and EZ-Flash III. It's a pretty organized tool that sorts out all of the codes for easy access, and allows entering codes easy as well. There's not much else to say about EZ-Cheat.' Current version is 0.1. You can download the Windows & MacOS here.

Cheat Converters

Cheat2Cheat was written by Slade and is a small tool designed to convert VisualBoy Advance clt (cheat) files to EZ-Flash cht files. It will currently only process one cheat file at a time and is available in a Windows binary only. Current version is 1.2, which you can download here.
