Requirements
============
The compilation and usage of these utilities requires following
software packages or functional equivalents installed:

 - GCC or some other C99 compatible C compiler like Clang.
 - GNU Make

 - th-libs library (included in the tar/zip packages,
   for building from mercurial repo, see "how to build")

 - libiconv (optional, for converting ISO-8859/Latin-1 encoded
   text used in HVSC SID files and STIL database to whatever
   character set your system is using, like UTF-8.)


For Linux -> Win32/64 cross-compilation I have used the MinGW packages
from Debian Testing (wheezy), installable via "apt-get mingw-w64".

Please don't ask me for help to get cross-compilation working.

=======================================================================

How to build
============
0) If building from Mercurial repo, you need th-libs:

   $ hg clone https://tnsp.org/hg/th-libs

1) Possibly edit Makefile / Makefile.w32

2) $ make

   or, if cross-compiling to Win32 via MinGW

   $ make -f Makefile.w32

3) ???

4) If it works -> Happy fun times \:D\

5) sudo make install

6) Optionally set "HVSC_BASE" environment variable
   somewhere to point to your HVSC root directory
   aka "/somewhere/C64Music", so you don't need to
   specify it via the -H option. This way sidinfo
   will use the song length database and STIL
   database from HVSC.

   (This setting is also used by some other SID-
   related utilities such as stilview and sidplayfp.)

Display all information about one file in "entry per row" format:

$ sidinfo /misc/C64Music/MUSICIANS/J/Jeff/Anal_ogue.sid
Filename             : /misc/C64Music/MUSICIANS/J/Jeff/Anal_ogue.sid
Type                 : PSID
Version              : 2.0
Data offset          : 124
Data size            : 7154
Load address         : 0
Init address         : 4017
Play address         : 4027
Songs                : 1
Start song           : 1
Name                 : Anal'ogue
Author               : Søren Lund (Jeff)
Copyright            : 1996 Jeff
Hash                 : 6d5b7f0ff092e55abf27c37c8bc3fc64

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

Display in "parseable" INI-style format, with hexadecimal values:

$ sidinfo /misc/C64Music/MUSICIANS/J/Jeff/Anal_ogue.sid -p -x
Filename=/misc/C64Music/MUSICIANS/J/Jeff/Anal_ogue.sid
Type=PSID
Version=2.0
DataOffs=$0000007c
DataSize=$00001bf2
LoadAddr=$0000
InitAddr=$0fb1
PlayAddr=$0fbb
Songs=$0001
StartSong=$0001
Name=Anal'ogue
Author=Søren Lund (Jeff)
Copyright=1996 Jeff
Hash=6d5b7f0ff092e55abf27c37c8bc3fc64

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

One-line format with "|" (pipe character) as a field separator, and
also specify which fields are to be included:

$ sidinfo -l \| -f type,ver,hash,name,author,copyright Anal_ogue.sid

PSID|2.0|Anal'ogue|Søren Lund (Jeff)|1996 Jeff|6d5b7f0ff092e55abf27c37c8bc3fc64|

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

By using the format string functionality you can control the output
format very specifically:

$ sidinfo Anal_ogue.sid -F 'NAME="@name@"\nHASH=@hash@\n'

NAME="Anal'ogue"
HASH=6d5b7f0ff092e55abf27c37c8bc3fc64

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

You could, for example create SQL INSERT statements:

$ sidinfo Anal_ogue.sid -e\' -F "INSERT INTO sometable (filename,name,author) VALUES ('@filename@', '@name@', '@author@', '@copyright@')\n"

INSERT INTO sometable (filename,name,author) VALUES ('./Anal_ogue.sid', 'Anal\'ogue', 'Søren Lund (Jeff)', '1996 Jeff')

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

Furthermore, you can use "printf"-style format specifiers for
formatting each @field@, see this example:

$ sidinfo Anal_ogue.sid -F 'NAME=@name:"%-64s"@\nHASH=@hash:"%64s"@\nLOAD_ADDR=@loadaddr:$%04x@\n'
NAME="Anal'ogue                                                       "
HASH="                                6d5b7f0ff092e55abf27c37c8bc3fc64"
LOAD_ADDR=$0fb0

Many of the standard C-style printf() format specifiers are supported,
but not all, and obviously only integer/string formats are supported.

Since sidinfo v0.7.6 it is also possible to automatically scan and
recurse directories via '-R' option, for example:

$ sidinfo -R "/misc/C64Music/*.sid"

The above will start from /misc/C64Music/ and scan any accessible
subdirectories for files that match "*.sid" pattern and handle them.

Using previous example about SQL inserts:

$ sidinfo -R "/misc/C64Music/*.sid" -e\' -F "INSERT INTO sometable (filename,name,author) VALUES ('@filename@', '@name@', '@author@', '@copyright@')\n"

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

SIDInfo 0.9 adds support for the HVSC STIL database. Unfortunately
controlling the output of STIL information in the "-F" format string
option is quite limited, as all fields will be concatenated into
one long string field.

You can change the field separator by specifying the "-l" option and
also optionally omit the STIL field names by using the "-n" option.
