I have sort of gotten sidetracked by other things (like the Real World), so I am probably not going to finish my SMA2 editor. I do, however, have a ROM map & a few other odds & ends.

ROM map (Sorry for the all caps.)

Here is what I had so far for the editor:

It uses GTK+ & supports up to 256 levels of undo/redo & cut/copy/paste of sections of the overworld map data (in addition to a tile chooser), but the paths do not redraw when you edit them (a bug I never fixed).
I also did not start coding a level editor.
Note that the toolbar items are in Japanese because my system language is set to that. (The menus, on the other hand, are hard-coded in English.) In the en locale it comes up in English just fine.

If anyone wants the code to the editor proper or any of my mapping tools (a graphics/tile data viewer & a graphical ROM layout viewer, both of which use SDL), feel free to ask. But note that they are only known to compile on Linux, & that there are no comments, so it might just be a better idea to start anew at this point.

Sorry for only being tangentially on topic, but if this is a Linux system, what stops you from running the applications that need a Japanese locale with a LANG=ja_JP.utf8 environment prefix instead of changing the whole system locale?

I am trying to learn Japanese, so I set everything to Japanese by default. (It seems to be helping...I find that I recognize the kanji for things like "save" in other contexts.) I just forgot to set LANG=en_US.utf8 for the screenshot, & I did not notice until I had already uploaded it.

I can't blame him for trying. I learned English that way.
