A tool to generate simple/enhanced lyric file from existing UTAU project.
This application is programmed with compability in mind, i.e., using only platform-independent C standard libraries. However, kindly notice that strdup() is only merged into mainline ISO C standard since C2x.
Throretically, it could be utilised as an UTAU plugin as well, whose plugin.txt will be released later. FYI, as a plugin, statement of "notes=all" in plugin.txt or selecting all before execution is compulsory, or the lyric of [#NEXT] will overwrite the lyric of its preceding note.
This program runs in a shell environment. In Windows it could be executed in command prompt or ust file drag-and-drop.
Usage syntax: ust2lrc <ust file> [[-a|-b] [<delimiters> [<threshold>]]]
Examples
ust2lrc source.ust -a R,r 240ust2lrc this.ust -a "a R,i R,u R,e R,o R"ust2lrc "C:\Program Files\input.ust"ust2lrc D:\whatever.ust -b
-a refers to enhanced lyric output, where the delimiters of each lyric line (possibly with their length threshold) are specified in the succeeding arguments.
-b refers to simple lyric output, with each note treated as a separate lyric line.
You may want to use quotes or escape characters to pass an argument containing white character(s).
If the third argument is not specified, the program will interact with the user to acquire necessary arguments via command line.
