LOC <-> TSV converter

**taw** · February 26, 2011, 01:04 PM

For easier editing of loc files.

Usage:

jruby loc2tsv file.loc file.tsv
jruby tsv2loc file.tsv file.loc

You might need to install fastercsv gem if you don't have it yet:

jgem install fastercsv

If you need any command line tsv tools, msg me.

loc->tsv->loc round trip conversion gets you every single byte correct if that's what you're asking.

Well the pfm one replaces charecters like Á with ".

This converter does no such thing, it generates and parses correct UTF-8 TSVs.

[Request] Is the Loc file too big for someone to convert the Vanilla Loc file and upload it somewhere so that others can just download the file without having to go through the conversion process?

I guess this same request could be for the esf files as well but I don't know how big they are and if it is possible to host them somewhere for downloading.
