MSVC8 gives various compile error relating to templates that were changed back in 2008, leading me to belive that no one is using it, and that there is not point adding work arounds for a 9 year old compiler no one uses.

This directory contains various tools which aid the ScummVM developers
|
|
in their work. They are not intended for the general audience, and are
|
|
only sparsely, if at all, documented. Use at your own risk. You have
|
|
been warned :-).

agi-palex.py (buddha)
|
|
------------
|
|

convbdf
|
|
-------
|
|
Tool which converts BDF fonts (BDF = Bitmap Distribution Format) to
|
|
C++ source. That source, after being slightly tweaked, can be used to
|
|
replace or add fonts for the ScummVM GUI.
|
|
|
|
There is also a ttf2bdf tool which allows you to convert TrueType
|
|
fonts to BDF.
|
|
|
|
Hint from SumthinWicked: If you use ttf2bdf, it'll convert all glyphs
|
|
to bitmaps, but ScummVM only needs some of them. So you may want to
|
|
do your conversion like this:
|
|
ttf2bdf -p SIZE -l "32_160" -o FONT.bdf FONT.ttf
|
|
where SIZE is replaced by the desired font height.

|
dist-scummvm.sh
|
|
---------------
|
|
This shell script is used to create source release archives for
|
|
ScummVM releases. After tagging a branch for release, you can invoke
|
|
it like this:
|
|
|
|
./dist-scummvm.sh scummvm 0.7.1
|
|
|
|
Note #1: This creates .zip, .tar.bz2 and .tar.gz archives in /tmp by
|
|
default. To do that it performs a "cvs export" in /tmp first. If you
|
|
want to use another location, you can specify it as the thirds param
|
|
to the script.
|
|
|
|
Note #2: This assumes that our naming conventions for release tags
|
|
are being followed. I.e. the tag must be named "release-0-7-1" in
|
|
the above example. You can, however, specify an alternate tag as the
|
|
fourth param.
|
|
|
|
Note #3: Since SF.net anon CVS tends to lag behind developer CVS, if
|
|
you just tagged CVS, anon CVS may not yet have this. So if you are
|
|
in a hurry, modify the cvsroot in the script to use your dev CVS
|
|
account.
