Lmms: convert mmp into mmpz

Created on 30 Oct 2019 · 6Comments · Source: LMMS/lmms

What is the command to compress a *.mmp file into a *.mmpz file?

Basically I'm looking for the opposite of lmms -d inputfile.mmpz > output.mmp.

enhancement good first issue

Hi, I am a new to LMMS
This issue seems like a good first issue for a newcomer, so if it is still open, I can work on it.

There is an old python project at github (
https://github.com/AndiEcker/LmmsPrjMngr) that allows to convert mmpz to
mmp and visa versa.

The command line options -u converts mmpz to mmp and -c from mmp to mmpz. I
coded it 7 years ago and not touched it since then ... hope it still works
and helps.

If you have any problems let me know.

That I don't think we have. I'm pretty sure it's an easy task to implement it though and I guess it would be consistent with the --dump argument. Do you have an example of when this would be needed?
Example: lmms --compress inputfile.mmp > output.mmpz

@AndiEcker
Your project looks interesting but have'nt tried it out yet. I will provide feedback then.

My use case would be writing an application that do some stuff with the project files and then finally convert them back.

Wow, I was actually kinda looking for something like this without realizing it! I'm writing a converter from SDAT to MMP, so this would be a nice final step. I was thinking of implementing this, but it seems it has a PR already.
