There is a plug-in for Photoshop.

Look into the "List of Modifications" section, there is a Tools pack made by NvDrifter...

That's ".act" files, normally you would not need to touch that stuff. Its basically Visual Studio stuff "Microsoft Visual Fox Pro " etc.

I guess if you are good at VB or C++ it might be worth it.
