-index# create an index, # specifies what column index (-1 for none)
|
||
|

-define# specifies what column the conditionals are in (default -1)
|
||
|
|
-D... specifies conditional
|
||
|
|
-strings#..# range of columns containing string values
|
||
|
|
-check check for duplicate strings (default off - this is O(n^2))
|
||
|
|
-ascii source file is ASCII encoded (default)
|
||
|
|

|
||
|

||
|
|
-lc<char> character to indicate left side of a comment (default none)

Notes: * Column values are 0 based. Column 'A' in Excel is column 0.
|
||
|
|
* Use -1 to specify a column does not exist
|
||
|
|
* Range syntax for strings is 3..6 for 4 columns of strings
|
||
|
|
* If no string range is given than all left over columns with
|
||
|
|
a column header are considered to have strings.
|
||
|
|
* Conditionals are good when you want to share strings among
|
||
|
|
different platforms. Put a pc or psx to limit the string
|
||
|
|
to a specific platform. Use -Dpc to get only pc strings.
|
||
|
|
* If using Unicode you must use tab delimited files
|
||
|
|
* In general tab delimited is better than comma delimited
|
||
|
|
* In order to use the new LOCALE_getstr API you must use the
|
||
|
|
-multifile option to get each language in it's own .loc file.
|
||
|
|
* Pathnames are taking from the top row of each column when
|
||
|
|
using the multifiles.
|
||
|
|
* Use -lc and -rc to allow for comments in the strings
|
||
|
|
ie, "[winning team name] defeat [losing team name]."
|
||
|
|
Use these options to handle the above example -lc[ -rc]
