fdscheck can recognize game titles with the internal database. This database is converted from FDS Study database <http://www.geocities.jp/gponys/fmcmdskw11.html>, and it is originally developed by ena <https://web.archive.org/web/20080515232015/http://fdsstudy.hp.infoseek.co.jp/> and gponys <http://www.geocities.jp/gponys/>_. Thanks for the great work and the permission to use!

Usage

check::

$ fdscheck game.fds                 # with internal database
$ fdscheck --db fdsdb.json game.fds # with custom database
$ fdscheck --nodb game.fds          # without database

split::

$ fdssplit game.fds

build::

$ fdscheck -f manifest game.fds > manifest.json
$ fdssplit game.fds
... (modify files)
$ fdsbuild out.fds manifest.json

convert FDS Study database into JSON::

$ fdssjson fdsdb-be.txt > fdsdb.json

To convert Japanese database, encoding conversion is needed::

$ iconv -f cp932 -t utf-8 fdsdb-bj.txt > fdsdb-bj-utf8.txt
$ fdssjson fdsdb-bj-utf8.txt > fdsdb-ja.json

Install
