Changelog

GNU/LINUX 2021/03/29

Fixed full rebuild. Problem was that the variable content changed cause at some point I switched from numbers to strings in the case.
However, I did not test the created HomeMenu after this change but don't think something broke. Btw. those errors at the last step — the BUILD step — are normal cause WINE is still used there!

GNU/LINUX 2020/11/14

Broke full rebuild with some changes. Choose previous commit or call each step individually until I fix it.
Added bclimtool and darctool and a script extractLZ so that GNU/Linux users don't need to wait until Kuriimu2 (which uses dotnetcore!) finally works to be able to view PNG files within bclim files..
Useful tip: Use magick display 'vid:*.png' (needs imagemagick) to view all png files in a folder at once.

GNU/LINUX 2020/09/02

A full rebuild COULD work (on GNU/Linux after a few tries) and IF it builds a edited CIA then it SHOULDN'T lead to a softbrick.
It should be possible to exchange files between Windows and GNU/Linux regardless of the steps that were executed.
(Design choice: for files extracted from or modified on linux the LZ extension is lowercase -> we won't need to ask which plattform people use).

-The GNU/LINUX version currently uses WINE, but the developer plans to move away from it and improve some parts of the script, including giving users more information, better UI, and integrating extractLZ.sh into HMRT.sh. Other plans for the tool include adding a tool that lets users easily search for Strings, Offsets, Hex values, Words, and an option to patch files with new values.
