ConvertSchem

"but to copy the code i got CC-Copy, wish works fine for normal code, but not for schematics.

so i wrote a small program, to convert the schematic file into a table, searialize the table and safe the file local. Now i can copy the file with CC-Copy, on the Server i have the same converter running, to unsearilize the string, wish was given by CC-Copy and safe it as schematic file.

pretty easy thing, for "just" playing around with turtles and schematics ;) but in bigger projects i love it ;)


Usage:
goto your local minecraft world, copy the schematic file into your turtle folder, copy the "convert" script in the same folder

Run:
convert toStringFile schematicFileName convertedFileName

than Copy the convertedFile and the convert scropt with CC-Copy to the Server you are on and run:
convert toByteFile convertedFileName newSchematicFileName

as i said just usefull for ppl like me who are playing on a server without http and/or posibility to upload directly (like schematics)

fileName: convert" ]]--
