# GeckoLoader
**GeckoLoader is a command line tool, providing an easy way to have near unlimited code space, allowing thousands of lines of gecko code for every Wii/GCN game.**
**Steps to prepare a codelist**

1. Download `Ocarina Manager`
2. Open `Ocarina Manager` and supply it with the codes you desire, checking the boxes of the codes that you want to be used in `GeckoLoader`
3. Save it as a txt file in your `current working directory`
**Codes**
**Steps to prepare a .dol file**
`GeckoLoader` supports 2 methods:
1. Copy a clean `dol` file from your choice game into your `current working directory`
1. GCT files (Raw codelist)
2. Textual Codelist (Ocarina Manager or Dolphin Format txt files)
`GeckoLoader` also supports the ability to use a folder filled with GCT files and/or Textual codelists as input for multi codelist patching
**DOL File**
`GeckoLoader` needs a valid `dol` file to patch with your codes. Simply supply the path to your `dol` file in either the GUI or the CLI
`GeckoLoader` also supports patching the same `dol` file multiple times until the file becomes filled with section data.
**Steps to compile GeckoLoader**
1. Run the installer and choose to install `GeckoLoader`
2. In command prompt, input `GeckoLoader -h` for help on syntax and options
3. Run the command `GeckoLoader <dol> <codelist> <options>` filling in the variables as needed
Run the installer and choose to install `GeckoLoader`
Then you can do either:
1. In command prompt, input `GeckoLoader -h` for help on syntax and options
2. Run the command `GeckoLoader <dol> <codelist> <options>` filling in the variables as needed
Or:
1. Fill out the relevant data in the GUI
2. Click the RUN button
Your new patched `dol` file will be in the folder `./geckoloader-build` by default
*NOTE: <codelist> can be an Ocarina formatted txt file, a gct, or a folder containing the previous mentioned files.
