All subcommands have their own help and arguments. Use --help or --help-all to see all available options.

It is common to use IMAG files as a background that is used to clear the screen between screen updates by leveraging SPORT VRAM -> VRAM copying. However, due to alignment requirements and needing to read data off of a CDROM the LoadImage() function utilizes more resources than needed. Especially given LoadImage were never expanded to support anything but 320x240 @ 16bpp LRFORM images.

Having a raw LRFORM file allows the user to load it using LoadFile and saves on resources. See LoadImage's code for more details.

int memflags;
int filesize;
char *image;
char *filename = "image.lrform";

memflags = (MEMTYPE_TRACKSIZE|MEMTYPE_STARTPAGE|MEMTYPE_VRAM);
image    = LoadFile(filename,&filesize,memflags);

Any command with an --output-path option supports templating to make scripting easier. It uses a currly brace notation such as {foo}. Below is a list of supported values per subcommand.

All support:

• {filepath}: Full original input filepath.
• {dirpath}: Parent path of {filepath} if it has one. "." otherwise.
• {filename}: Just the filename without dirpath or extension.
• {origext}: The original filepath's extension. Includes prefixed '.'.
• {ext}: The standard extension for the target file.
• {name}: If supported by the input the internal name for the image. Prefixed with "". Otherwise "".
• {index}: The index of the image if the input had multiple images.
• {index}: The index prefixed with "" if input had multiple images. Otherwise "".
• {w}: Width of the output image.
• {h}: Height of the output image.

• {coded}: "coded" if coded else "uncoded".
• {packed}: "packed" if packed else "unpacked".
• {lrform}: "lrform" if lrform else "linear".
• {_lrform}: "_lrform" if lrform otherwise "".
• {bpp}: The CEL bits per pixel.
• {flags}: CCB flags in hex.
• {pixc}: CCB PIXC/PPMPC in hex.
• {rotation}: "0", "90", "180", or "270"

• {bpp}: Always 16.
