💖 GBS2GB 💖

okay bestie, so real talk — gbs2gb is a little developer tool from the Gameboy sound player world, and its whole job is converting module dumps from GBS to GB format. that's it, that's the dream. no cap. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gbs2gb [OPTION]...  [--] GBS-FILE OUT-FILE

like, options first, then the file it reads, then the file it writes. simple as. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically gbs2gb converts a Gameboy module dump in .GBS format to .GB format.

it's a developer tool — the whole point is making .GBS files playable on real hardware. not emulators, not vibes, actual hardware. iconic. 👑

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

  • -h — shows you a short help message and then dips out. exit, stage left. 🙈
  • -V — prints the version number and exits. that's it, that's all she does. ✨
  • -- — this marks the end of options, fr fr. the next argument gets treated as GBS-FILE, even if it starts with a -. periodt.
  • -t rom-template — reads the rom template from the file rom-template. the default is to use the boot rom of the GBS-FILE if it's available. > ⚠️ heads up: the conversion will fail if neither rom-template nor GBS-FILE can provide a rom template. so like, one of them has to come through. 😭
  • GBS-FILE — the sound file to read. it must be in uncompressed .GBS format, okay? no compressed nonsense here.
  • OUT-FILE — the converted file to write. it's gonna be in .GB format. > 🫶 and yes, an existing file will be overwritten. so check before you commit, bestie.
