options:

-p ...... Pack up specified folder
-i ...... Inject file(s) to specified darc

You can use '-d' option to contain multiple objects in a directory.

This tool hasn't been tested completely, so it may not work in some cases, please tell me while errors occur.

Thanks Smariter for help!

UPDATE:

By using CUE's lzx tool, this darc tool support compress/decompress darc files now. You can use these following commands to compress darc files(decompress is automatically):

-evb .... VRAM compatible, big-endian (LZ11)
-ewb .... WRAM compatbile, big-endian (LZ11)
-evl .... VRAM compatible, little-endian (LZ40)
-ewl .... WRAM compatbile, little-endian (LZ40)

You should place the lzx.exe in 'C:\Windows\' to make drag&drop unpacking available.

UPDATE 2:

Add inject feature, Modified files can work in game now.
