>Does the program I'm talking about exist for Diablo 1. ATMA and Flavie filled those roles for me in Diablo 2. I'm not sure how scanners work, but could they translate my character files for me? Even if I'm not on Battle.net?
Afaik, there is no exact equivalent of ATMA for D1, but there are programs that let's you copy items and therefore import\export them. The few that I used in the past also have handy things like character files back ups, and a few things that can be used to 'cheat'. Though in my opinion it does rely greatly in the context on how you use it.
>What is the communities stance on "legitness" of self-scanning?
Not quite sure what you mean here, since an item that scans as 'clean' can still technically be illegitimate. And an item that scans as flagged, can be legitimate. Someone more technical minded can probably provide more details, but from what I know some scanners use a list to check the items scanned. Due to the limitations of the game etc, that list can generate a false reading.
edit: Come to think of it Stu's backup program was fairly close to being the ATMA of it's time I guess. Until iirc, some jerk ripped off his work and modified it for a fairly blatant cheating purposes.
