When a string exceeds its original slot, all strings are relocated to an appended block with patched cross-references.\n\n## Usage\n\n```\ngravedigger unpack \u003cgame_dir\u003e \u003coutput_dir\u003e\ngravedigger repack \u003coutput_dir\u003e \u003crepacked_dir\u003e\n```\n\n`unpack` reads original game files (`.DD2`, `.EXE`) and produces editable assets: text strings as XLSX, graphics as PNG.\n`repack` takes the edited translations and rebuilds game files ready to play.\n\n## Installation\n\nDownload a standalone binary from [GitHub Releases](../../releases).\n\nOr run from source (Python 3.13+):\n\n```\nuv sync\nuv run gravedigger --help\n```\n\n## Development\n\n```\nmake lint    # ruff + mypy\nmake test    # pytest (100% coverage required)\nmake build   # standalone binary via nuitka\n```\n\n## Acknowledgements\n\n- [dangerous-dave-re](https://github.com/gmegidish/dangerous-dave-re) by Gil Megidish — reverse-engineered game format documentation and reference implementation\n- [gamecompjs](https://github.com/camoto-project/gamecompjs) by Adam Nielsen — PKLITE decompression algorithm reference\n- [OpenTESArena ExeUnpacker](https://github.com/afritz1/OpenTESArena) by afritz1 — PKLITE decompression reference\n- [depklite](https://github.com/hackerb9/depklite) by hackerb9 / NY00123 — PKLITE decompression reference\n- [UNLZEXE](https://github.com/mywave82/unlzexe) by Mitugu Kurizono / Stian Skjelstad — LZEXE decompression algorithm reference\n- [unpacklzexe](https://github.com/samrussell/unpacklzexe) by Sam Russell — LZEXE decompression reference (Python)\n\n## License\n\n[GPL-3.0-or-later](LICENSE)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frefaim%2Fgravedigger","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frefaim%2Fgravedigger","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frefaim%2Fgravedigger/lists"}
