Extract all `said` strings from scripts

[ZvikaZ]

It's related to my previous post, but it's actually a different topic - what I really need now is to extract all `said` strings.
That can be accomplished with SCICompanion's 'Find in Files' feature, but it leaves work to do.
For example, there are cases like:

Code: [Select]

(Said
         'get,explore,climb[<on,onto,up]/bone,android,protrusion[<metallic]'
)
which aren't found.

And anyway, the find in files give results like:

Code: [Select]

Main.sc: ((Said 'pump,backstage/shark,pass') (proc255_0 0 3) (= global200 1))While all I'm intereseted at is

Code: [Select]

'pump,backstage/shark,pass'
I can solve this, but again, I don't want to re-invent the wheel, if someone has already solved it...

I'd point you to scidisasm from the FreeSCI package which does this (it works through the script file block by block, so you'd get the said strings in a block of its own). You may be able to extract the files from here:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/freesci

(I didn't think I'd be referring to old FreeSCI binary packages in 2020, let alone that there'd be one in Ubuntu Trusty - released in 2014 - and that it would work...)

It's even worse than what you think ;-)
I tryed compiling it on my Centos7, but it complained.

Then I started an old Ubuntu12 VM I had, downloaded FreeSCI from Ubuntu store, but it seems to be without the tools.
So, I compiled here, assuming that with this Ubuntu things will be easier.
But got the same error :-(

Code: [Select]

bdfgname.c:50:1: error: conflicting types for 'getline'
/usr/include/stdio.h:675:20: note: previous declaration of 'getline' was here

I hacked a little SCI engine in ScummVM, but now I never imagined that I will try to fix problems in the original FreeSCI 

EDIT

A simple change of 'getline' in that file to 'my_getline' fixed the problem.
Now I got the scidisasm working...

It's working great!
Thanks

For future reference, here's the complete guide:
1. Download FreeSCI source files from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/freesci
2. Compile
3. If it fails - just replace 'getline' in the failing file to 'my_getline'
4. Run 'src/tools/scidisasm' in the game's directory
5.

Code: [Select]

grep said * | grep lofsa | cut -f 2 -d ";" | cut -f 2 -d '"' | sort | uniq > said.txt

I wasn't being sarcastic. The package in Trusty worked for me. It was compiled statically and so ran easily. Building from source is another matter, but I think I actually tried a year or two ago, using my age old DARCS repository.

And I was thinking that parsing this part of the output would be easier:

Code: [Select]

; Obj type #4, offset 0x10b0, size 0x52:
.said
10b4: search , look , examine [ < at , around ] [ / room , area ] [ / !* ]
10d2: cast >
10d6: crawl , duck
10dc: use , force , pull , move
10e8: / wizard , dude
10ef: / frame , painting
10f6: / path , path
10fd: / staff

; Obj type #5, offset 0x1102, size 0x1c8:
.strings
1106: rm220
110c: Fire Wizard:
1119: Water Wizard:
1127: Earth Wizard:
1135: Air Wizard:
(etc.)

Well, I find it quicker to `grep` and choose specific line, rather than choose one block out of the file.
But I don't think that really matters...

Anyway, after another thought, I preferred the following Unix pipeline:

Code: [Select]

grep said *.script | grep lofsa > said_per_room.txt
Thus having all `Said`s in their context, it will be easier to translate.
