Using the [GlyphTranslator] on Linux and MacOS

  1. Open the Terminal in your [Glyph Tools location].
  2. Copy this into the Terminal but do not press ENTER just yet: python3 GlyphTranslator.py <LabelFile>
  3. Replace <LabelFile> with the path to your [Label File] you exported earlier by drag and dropping the file into the Terminal window.

Your command should look something like this now:

python3 GlyphTranslator.py '/home/vm/Downloads/custom-nothing-glyph-tools-main/Labels 1.txt'

Note

I highly recommend to also use a [Watermark File], especially if you plan to share your [NGlyph File].

The watermark could look like this:

╲                       ╱
 ╔═════════════════════╗
 ║  Glyphed by SebiAi  ║
 ╚═════════════════════╝
╱                       ╲

Save your watermark into a text file called Watermark.txt and append this to the command: --watermark <WatermarkFile>

E.g.:

python3 GlyphTranslator.py '/home/vm/Downloads/custom-nothing-glyph-tools-main/Labels 1.txt' --watermark '/home/vm/Downloads/custom-nothing-glyph-tools-main/Watermark.txt'
  1. Now you can execute the command with the ENTER key. If everything went good you will have a new file named like your input [Label File] but with the .nglyph extension. This is the [NGlyph File] which you'll need in the next steps.

Caution

An existing [NGlyph File] with the same name will be overridden without notice!

Note

The script might ask for your input in the form of yes (y) and no (n).

Tip

Read the output and act accordingly if it tells you something. If you get stuck read through the Troubleshooting entry first. If you still need help you can join the Discord (link at the root of the wiki).

Important

If you make changes to your [Labels] then do not forget to export them again!!
