Kyrandia compress_kyra.exe Command Line

[keirondrk]

hi there,

just trying to make compressed versions of my games for portable use, located and understand the usage of compress_kyra.exe

just really put off by having to type a line for each and every vrm
file.. eakkk... (batch processing)

just wondered if anyone knows a possible command line which will process all of the vrms via compress_kyra.exe automatically.

I did find a line on the forums but unfortunately it did not work, the feeble file examples worked perfectly which i'm veryyyy greatful for because that would have been a nightmare ...

used dos for a lonngg time but I must admit I never quite got into that kind of command line work, my if statement's and the like are very basic.

ScummVM's such a awsome piece of programming.... look forward to seeing them old great adventures appearing in it over the future months (big larry fan, and they just don't make games like these anymore!!!)

Thankk youuuu

[whatever]

windows/dos:

Code: Select all

mkdir compressed
for %d in (*.vrm) do compress_kyra.exe "%d" "compressed\%d"

note: you have to use %%d instead of %d if you put this in a .bat file.


linux/bash:

Code: Select all

mkdir compressed
for d in *.vrm; do ./compress_kyra "$d" "compressed/$d"; done
