``modtools/*`` scripts provide tools for modders, often with changes
|
||
|
to the raw files, and are not intended to be called manually by end-users.
|
||
|
|
||
|
These scripts are mostly useful for raw modders and scripters. They all have
|
||
|
standard arguments: arguments are of the form ``tool -argName1 argVal1
|
||
|
-argName2 argVal2``. This is equivalent to ``tool -argName2 argVal2 -argName1
|
||
|
argVal1``. It is not necessary to provide a value to an argument name: ``tool
|
||
|
-argName3`` is fine. Supplying the same argument name multiple times will
|
||
|
result in an error. Argument names are preceded with a dash. The ``-help``
|
||
|
argument will print a descriptive usage string describing the nature of the
|
||
|
arguments. For multiple word argument values, brackets must be used: ``tool
|
||
|
-argName4 [ sadf1 sadf2 sadf3 ]``. In order to allow passing literal braces as
|
||
|
part of the argument, backslashes are used: ``tool -argName4 [ \] asdf \foo ]``
|
||
|
sets ``argName4`` to ``\] asdf foo``. The ``*-trigger`` scripts have a similar
|
||
|
policy with backslashes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Any of these scripts can be called with ``-help`` for more information.
