gamebookformat

A tool to format gamebooks into various formats useful for playing the gamebook on paper or a screen (or for debugging it).

Usage

formatgamebook.py [-h] [-M] [-t D] inputfile [inputfile ...] outputfile

positional arguments:
  inputfile             input gamebook file (eg test.gamebook)
  outputfile            output file (eg test.tex or test.rtf)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -M, --no-default-map  ignore default map file
  -t D, --template D    add custom template dir
  -y, --verify          verify gamebook structure

Supported Output Formats

Name Extension Description
LaTeX .tex Useful to generate PDFs using pdflatex or whatever LaTeX tools you prefer.
Rich Text Format .rtf Supported because the Windhammer Prize requires it.
Graphviz DOT .dot Use with the Graphviz dot tool to generate a flowchart graph of all sections in the gamebook.
HTML .html Play gamebook in browser.
Debug Plain Text .debug Plain text debug output of gamebook contents.

More to be added.

Gamebook Format

The input file expected by the formatgamebook.py script must be in a format containing information about all sections in the book plus some optional metadata. The format should (when TBD) be documented here.

By design the format is similar enough to Emacs Org-Mode that some edit shortcuts works in that mode without additional configuration (eg C-c C-q to edit section tags). References to sections can be followed using C-c C-o while editing the book in org-mode.
