       <---------------------------------------------------------------->
                               An app by person66
                 libWiiSharp.dll by leathl (mod by scooby74029)                         
/------------------------------------------------------------------------------>



/----DESCRIPTION
/------------------------------>

Sharpii is a command line app that I made, which uses leathl's 
libWiiSharp.dll to perform tasks such as:
         - Pack, unpack, or edit .wad files
         - Pack, and unpack U8 archives
         - Patch IOS .wad files with various patches
         - Download files from NUS
         - Convert a .wav file to .bns, and vice versa
         - Convert an image file to a .tpl, and vice versa
         - Send a .dol or .wad to the Homebrew Channel over Wi-Fi


/----USAGE
/------------------------------>

I won't go in to detail here, but to see all the commands, just start 
up the command prompt, navigate to the folder containing Sharpii, and type:

                                    Sharpii.exe -h

OR, if you want help with a specific function use

                             Sharpii.exe [function] -h

Where [function] would obviously be replaced with the function you want
help with.


/----NOTES
/------------------------------>

 NUS Downloading:
/------------------>
  When downloading single contents from NUS (using the -s argument) make
  sure you have both the path, and the file name when specifying the output.
  For example, if the output is set to '.\hello.app' then the file will be
  saved as 'hello.app' in the current directory. However, if the output is 
  set to 'hello.app' you will get an error.
	
  Also note that When Downloading single contents, it will only save the
  decrypted file.
  
  If you wish to download the latest content, use '-v latest' instead of the
  actual version number.
  
  If you have the output format set only to WAD, and your your output location
  has '.wad' at the end, or you have not specified one, then instead of being
  saved inside a folder, just the wad file will be saved.
	
 WAD Editing:
/------------------>
  When changing the type of WAD (using the -type argument) some of the types
  may not work, as they have not all been tested. Here is a list of what the
  different types are:
            - Channel: Regular channel WAD, nothing special
            - DLC: WAD for game DLC (downloaded game content)
            - GameChannel: Channels such as the Wii Fit or Mario Kart channels
            - HiddenChannels: A hidden channel, it wont show up on the Wii Menu
            - SystemChannels: Channels such as the Mii or Shopping channels
            - SystemTitles: Stuff like the System Menu and boot2 (but not IOSs)

  For more details see http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Title_database

 SendDol:
/------------------>
  When using Sharpii's SendDol function, please note that any arguments placed
  after the '-dol file' argument will be sent as dol arguments.

  Also note that for compression to actually work, 'zlib1.dll' must be placed in
  the same directory as Sharpii. This file is not included, but it can easily be
  found online. If you are sending a zip file instead of a dol, it wont be 
  compressed at all, no matter what.

  If you do not wish to enter an IP every time you use SendDol, then you can add
  the argument '-saveip' to the command. This will save the entered IP to the
  environmental variable 'SharpiiIP', and then, in the future, if you do not enter 
  an ip, Sharpii will use the one saved there instead. (Also applies to SendWad)

 SendWad:
/------------------>
  Since version 1.6, Sharpii has supported AHBPROT for installing WADs. This means
  that as long as you have HBC 1.0.7 or above, you will be able to install the WAD
  without a patched IOS. To use this feature, enter '-ahb' instead of '-ios IOS'

  If you do not wish to enter an IP every time you use SendDol, then you can add
  the argument '-saveip' to the command. This will save the entered IP to the
  environmental variable 'SharpiiIP', and then, in the future, if you do not enter 
  an ip, Sharpii will use the one saved there instead. (Also applies to SendDol)


/----Installing Sharpii
/------------------------------>

Since version 1.7, you have been able to install Sharpii. This allows you to run
Sharpii from anywhere without needing the exe in that directory. To install Sharpii,
just use the command 'Sharpii install'. This will copy Sharpii to your My Programs
directory, and create an environmental variable. To remove it, just use the command
'Sharpii uninstall' which will remove the environmental variable, then delete Sharpii
from My Programs.


/----SOURCE
/------------------------------>

The source for Sharpii is available at: sharpii.googlecode.com


/----CREDITS
/------------------------------>

Sharpii uses scooby74029's mod of libWiiSharp.dll by leathl, and 
it borrows some code from some of the examples included with libWiiSharp.

libWiiSharp can be found at: libwiisharp.googlecode.com


SendWad uses CRAP's installer by WiiCrazy/I.R.on, with any edits that leathl
may have made when adding it to CustomizeMii (which is where I got the source
from). Since version 1.6, the AHBPROT code it uses is just mostly stolen from
WiiMod by jskyboo.


I would also like to thank XFlak and JoostinOnline for doing a bit of beta 
testing for me (and giving me many ideas). Thanks!
