There is only one public map tool written by ultimation but I think he removed it. The one he released is flagged as a trial and will expire and crashes all the time... so yes, my advice is to look at how map files are handled in public sources and work on developing a tool to edit maps if that is what you want to do.
There is no public tool that will let you do it so my advice to "research the file structure and write a tool to let you edit it" is completely accurate

I am not offering to help for money. I haven't done freelance work in close to a year as it's not something that interests me or that I have time for.
My point is you keep posting new threads every day or two asking questions that either are easier to find answers to by searching publicly or have no answer that doesn't involve us simply writing the fix for you.
We're happy to answer actual questions that you've done your homework on but what you're doing (again, this is not in reference to this thread but to most of them) boils down to "I dont understand what I'm doing, fix my issue for me".
Take the time to do your own research and you'll find that when you post a question we'll actually be able to help you.
Example time!
Lets say you had dug into the map files somewhat, had looked at one of the dozen or so references for dmap structure already released on the forum and said something along the lines of
"I've been researching the dmap files in an attempt to add/remove portals. I'm getting stuck though when I try to write back to the file. Here's my current code." then we would be very happy to help with that because there's actually an answer we can give (that doesn't involve writing the full tool for you)
