HANDLE CHARSETS action
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2023 7:24 pm
Here's a github action that can be used as a replacement to weidu's HANDLE_CHARSETS. Rather than converting tra files at install time on user machine, this action will generate and (optionally) commit them into mod repository.
Usage is described in the readme. Designed to be quite similar to HANDLE_CHARSETS, but there are some differences.
Advantages:
- Installation is a bit faster, since no conversion is performed.
- Native support for various OS console encodings.
- No mutability, no ambiguity about the installation. Everything is saved in the repository statically. (Or you can skip saving copies in the repo, and only perform conversion once during packaging process.)
For mods translated in Hive, this can be run as a part of poify workflow.
