makerom is a tool which can be used to create [[NCCH]], [[NCSD|CCI]], and [[CIA]] files.

== Using Makerom ==

=== Command line ===

Since CCI and CIA are NCCH containers, makerom was built so CXIs could be built stand alone, or straight into a container format. It is also possible rebuild CXIs ~~as easily building a CXI~~ from an ~~elf~~. As a result ~~the~~ are many combinations which can be used~~, and~~ for simplicity specific functions will be explained by breaking them up into argument groups:

As a result there are many combinations which can be used; for simplicity, specific functions will be explained by breaking them up into argument groups:

=== Creating RSF files ===

Inspired by Nintendo's format for their makerom, is a yaml configuration file, required for creating NCCH files. CIA/CCI can be created without using a RSF file, but default settings will be used.

Inspired by Nintendo's format for their makerom, a yaml configuration file is required for creating NCCH files. CIA/CCI can be created without using a RSF file, but default settings will be used.

For CXI, RSF files can be used to specify permissions, and access control settings. ~~However makerom~~ can use default settings by use of the "-desc" option, which removes the requirement for ~~specifing~~ them in the RSF file.

=== Creating ELF files ===

ELF files created using the official SDK can be used with makerom. ~~But~~ ELF files created using [https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib ctrulib], can be used, provided they are linked with this linker script: [https://gist.github.com/yellows8/6da7984a80a825b10294 download]

== Compiling Source ==

Line 64:

For Linux, gcc/g++/make must be installed.

All additional libraries used by makerom, are included in the source, and are linked statically.
