dsparse utility

Parses and displays dialog scripts.

dsparse dialog_script_name [initial dialog string]
This application parses a dialog script and displays the dialog without having to run Houdini. This can be used to quickly test dialog scripts without the overhead of re-loading Houdini.

This program generates .ui files which are cached for future runs of the application. When changing parameters, it’s a good idea to remove these .ui files to make sure that the dialogs are up to date. These .ui files are built in…

…so for testing, it’s usually a good idea to run:

rm -rf /usr/tmp/Dialogs/HDSParse
dsparse dialog_script_name
