'''C:\Portables\rcomage-v1.1.1\Rcomage>rcomage.exe help'''
Rcomage v1.1.1, written by ZiNgA BuRgA
A general purpose RCO creation and manipulation command-line tool.

'''Syntax''': rcomage.exe <function> [options]
  Use 'rcomage.exe help <function>' for help on a specific function

'''Available functions''':

    extract        Extract a resource from an RCO file.
    dump           Dumps structure and contents of an RCO file.

    compile        Compiles a new RCO file from a dump.
    rebuild        Reads an RCO, then writes it out; in other words, it just copies it (and doesn't do it perfectly) - incredibly useful eh? ^^

    vagdec         Converts VAG to WAV.
    vagenc         Converts WAV to VAG.

    vsmxdec        Decodes a VSMX file into a text file.
    vsmxenc        Encodes a (VSMX) text file into a VSMX file.

    help           This help screen.

'''Available options''':

    --quiet        Only display warnings/errors.
    --ini-dir      Specify directory containing Rcomage INI files.

'''C:\Portables\rcomage-v1.1.1\Rcomage>rcomage.exe help extract'''
Rcomage v1.1.1, written by ZiNgA BuRgA
A general purpose RCO creation and manipulation command-line tool.

Syntax: rcomage.exe extract <rcofile> <resource> [<output>] [options]
  Extracts a single resource (image/sound/model/VSMX/text) with label <resource> and saves it to <output>.  If <output> is not specified, will default to using the label as the filename, with no extension. <output> can be '-' meaning stdout.
   * You should supply the '--lang' option when extracting text resources.
   * You should supply the '--channel' option when extracting sound resources.

Options:
  The following options only apply for extracting text resources.
    --lang <lang>     Language of text to extract. [English]
                      You can use a language ID or one of the following:
    ... .. . <!-- app crashes here -->

'''C:\Portables\rcomage-v1.1.1\Rcomage>rcomage.exe help dump'''
Rcomage v1.1.1, written by ZiNgA BuRgA
A general purpose RCO creation and manipulation command-line tool.

Syntax: rcomage.exe dump <rcofile> <xmlfile> [<resource_dirs>] [options]
  Dumps the structure of <rcofile> in an XML format to <xmlfile>. <xmlfile> can be '-' which means stdout.

Options:
    --resdir <dir> Folder to dump resources into, or '-' for no dumping.
                   Resources will be dumped to <dir>, but you can have custom
                   directories for different resources with the following:
                     --images <dir>
                     --sounds <dir>
                     --models <dir>
                     --text <dir>
                     --vsmx <dir>
                   You can also use '-' as <dir> for the above to disable
                   dumping resources of that type.
    --output-txt   Output separate .txt files for every text string. Each is
                   prepended with the appropriate UCS BOM.
    --conv-gim <ext>
                   Send GIM images through gimconv (Windows only) and
                   convert to type with specified extension (ie png, bmp etc)
    --gimconv-cmd <command>
                   gimconv command to execute; defaults to 'gimconv'.
    --gimconv-flags <flags>
                   Additional flags to pass to gimconv.
    --conv-vag     Convert VAG files to WAV.
    --decode-vsmx  Decode VSMX files to textual format.
    --no-decomp-warn
                   Suppress decompression warnings.

Note: for resource dumping, directories are NOT automatically created. If the specified directorie(s) don't exist, the dumping will fail. However, directories for text languages with the '--output-txt' option will be automatically created if necessary.

'''C:\Portables\rcomage-v1.1.1\Rcomage>rcomage.exe help compile'''
Rcomage v1.1.1, written by ZiNgA BuRgA
A general purpose RCO creation and manipulation command-line tool.

Syntax: rcomage.exe compile <xmlfile> <rcofile> [options]
  Compiles an RCO <rcofile> using structure defined in <xmlfile>. <xmlfile> can be '-' which means stdin.
  Note that the XML file may have linked resources which need to be present for the compilation process to succeed.

Options:
  For the following --pack-* functions, values can be 'none' or 'zlib'.
  --pack-res and --pack-cmp, if specified, override values stored in XML.
    --pack-hdr <val>  How to compress the RCO header. [none]
    --pack-res <val>  How to compress RCO resources (BMP, GIM & GMO).
    --pack-cmp <val>  Compression used on already compressed resources. [none]
                      This can be used to force additional compression on PNG,
                      JPEG, TIFF and GIF resources. 'none' is recommended.
    --zlib-method <val>
                      Zlib compression method/strategy [7z]
                      Can be default, filtered, huffman, rle, fixed or 7z
                      '7z' will use 7-Zip's deflate instead of zlib
    --zlib-level <n>  Zlib compression level [3]
                      Values can be 0-9, or 1-4 for '--zlib-method 7z'
                      Defaults to 9 if not using 7z

    --no-convgim      Don't automatically run images marked as format=gim
                      through gimconv if extension is not '.gim'.
    --gimconv-cmd <command>
                      gimconv command to execute; defaults to 'gimconv'.
    --gimconv-flags <flags>
                      Additional flags to pass to gimconv.
    --no-convvag      Don't automatically convert WAV sounds to VAG format
                      (based on extension).  Note WAV->VAG conversion is lossy!
    --no-encvsmx      Don't automatically encode text files to VSMX
                      (based on extension).
