I can see where he's coming from, I've been using the tool for a while now and I use the same commands a lot, but the minute I try to do something new, I still find I have to experiment to get a result.
for example, the majority of the time I am simply adding or extracting files so I am using:
To Extract a disc from the USB Drive to the current local folder:
wwt -p {devicename} extract {nintendoID}
wwt -p /dev/disk1s1 extract RABCDE
To add a disc from the current local folder to the USB Drive:
wwt -p {devicename} add {nintendoID}
wwt -p /dev/disk1s1 add RABCDE
To add all new files in current local folder:
wwt -p /dev/disk1s1 add *
{I use the above command a lot, because wwt will only add files that do not already exist in the drive, so its safe to always use this even if only adding a few new files amongst hundreds of existing ones!}
however, I have a local storage of my WDF files and I wondered if I could use the ST command to settitle of the files locally? or does wwt and wit only work with the USB wbfs partition exclusively?

Formating tips:
1.) try "wwt find -l" to see all partitions
2.) select the right partition
3.) use "wwt init /dev/the_right_one --force" for formatting
add game with one of:
Use "update" instead of "add" to avoid warnings about existing games.
Use "--verbose --verbose" or "-vv" if you want a progress counter.
Define a environment variable "WWT_OPT" with "-vv" if you always wants verbose output.
List WBFS:
1.) try "wwt find -l" to see all partitions
2.) select the right partition
3.) use "wwt init /dev/the_right_one --force" for formatting
add game with one of:
Code:
# add all games of 1 directory
wwt -a add source_dir
# add all games of current directory
wwt -a add .
# add all games of an other wbfs partition
wwt -p /dev/dest_wbfs add /dev/source_wbfs
# add a specific game of an other wbfs partition
wwt -p /dev/dest_wbfs add /dev/source_wbfs/ID6Use "update" instead of "add" to avoid warnings about existing games.
Use "--verbose --verbose" or "-vv" if you want a progress counter.
Define a environment variable "WWT_OPT" with "-vv" if you always wants verbose output.
List WBFS:
Code:
# list the one and only wbfs drive
wwt ll
# list and don't use the title database -> show the internal names
wwt ll -T0
# dump the WBFS data structure completely
wwt dump -llTo modify iso images try "wit settitle -s file id6=new_title"drh said:
wwt+wit prints always the title of the title database. Try option -T0 to disable the title database.
The command "wwt dump -ll" gives you all infos about the WBFS.

'wwt' and 'wit' support different commands. Some commands are "read only" and
the other commands modify files and devices.
The "read only" commands of 'wit' scan automatically for partitions. The
"modify" commands needs an explizit subject (WBFS) to change. This subject can
be given with "--part partition" (short: -p) or by enabling the auto search
with option --auto (short: -a). See section "Processing partitions" in file
"wwt.txt" for more information.
All "modify" commands of 'wwt' and 'wit' knows the option --test (short: -t).
If set the programs tells you what they would do.
'wwt' and 'wit' work silently. The option --quiet (short: -q) make them more
quiet. The option --verbose (short: -v) enables more verbose output. You can
use --verbose multiple times for more verbose outputs. Using --verbose at
least 2 times will enable a progress counter.
The environment variables 'WWT_OPT' and 'WIT_OPT' can be used to predifine
options like "-vv". Under Unix decalre them in you local script init file.
Under Windows go to "Setting | Systems Settings | Extended | Environment".

All command are based on the assumption that exact 1 WBFS drive isa connected

The problem could be that your drive have no logical partitions. Not Problem for linux, but perhaps a problem for Windows (and for USB loaders)
Possible solution:
1.) Format the drive with ntfs/fat
2.) format the new logical partition (/dev/sdb1) as WBFS
-- OR --
No write access to /dev/sdb
EDIT:
It seems that libwbfs did not tell the caller about the write error while formatting. A next little bug.

Awesome Wiimm.
By the way the wit settitle command worked great, it confused me because with wwt I use ST to change the name of the (remote) file on the device by just defining the ID="name" where-as with wit, I have to use that also prceeded by the actual local file name.
Everytime I got a disc with a strange name or all in capitals etc, I added a wwt st command line to a script file I ran against the drive (to correct all the names). I no longer need to do this now I have physically changed the source file :-)

@drh:
Have you ever testet:
or after adding to WBFS:
The later one do not modify the iso images but only WBFS header.
Have you ever testet:
Code:
wit -s dir settitle +=%t --test
Code:
wwt -a settitle --wbfs +=%t --testWow, I wish I knew about that command before, that would have saved a lot of time!
I would have only needed to do a small amount of work to fix the titles after that.
e.g.
- WOULD Modify [RFFPGD] ./Final Fantasy Echos of Time [RFFPGD].wdf
- WOULD Set title to `FFCC EOT'

e.g.

After writing the WBFS header (offset=0) the programm seeks to offset 3fe000 to write the free blocks table. And this seek fails, I don't know why ???tomhead said:
Have you run wwt in admin mode?
I used your wit to create sparse Isos for my ntfs drive and it worked well from a NTFS formatted SD card in card reader in cfg loader (only tested smaller games yet, I'll check the fragmentation when the other/big games finished). I hope it doesn't fragment sparse files as much as wbfs_file.
