It's basically just taking data from the text file and displaying it on the screen. So to make your own version that would actually save real working gani files wouldn't be that difficult for anyone with only a bit of programming knowledge.
There is a way to attach sprites together so that placing one places them all, and their positions within the editor all move in sync, if I haven't misunderstood what you mean.

It can be done within a text editor like this:

ATTACHSPRITE spriteindex1 spriteindex2 xoffset yoffset

spritendex1 being the parent sprite with index2 joining onto it at the specified offsets.
