For those who have volunteered, here is what you need to do.
The UI allows you to create custom text files for existing packs that we are going to import.
The table has 4 columns:
- pack info
- original pack text file
- fixed text file (by my script)
- an empty text area where you can copy the fixed text file to, and further fix it manually
The fixes that you need to make are as follows:
- Some packs merge Notes: and Package history:. Please separate these into distinct sections.
- The section names must be exactly Notes: and Package history:
- The Package history: section must look like this: version date author description. Example:
- The date and author may be missing, if the author is missing, the semicolon can also be omitted.
- If you can, try to word wrap it so the text is not wider than the header (47 characters), you can leave URLs whole.
Ultimately the file must correspond to viewtopic.php?p=759#p759

Please click on Save to save the file, it is also saved when you click one of the tool buttons at the top.
