This script will convert the dsv save from drastic emulator to a melonDS save file
How this works ?
### How to use
MelonDS determines save type using exact byte count in the save file
Which needs to be a power of 2 as mentioned [here](http://melonds.kuribo64.net/faq.php).
This script calculates the closest power of 2 to the save file and removes the padding
You need python 3 installed.
Specify the input save file
This can be easily done manually by removing the padding using a hex editor.
Or using dd like this
```bash
./dr2mds.py "Pokemon Black.dsv"
```
This will make a "Pokemon Black.sav" file as output
You can also specify the output like
```bash
./dr2mds.py "Pokemon Black.dsv" -o "PKMN.sav"
```

In _Importing a savefile from another emulator_ part under _How to_ section
This script calculates the closest power of 2 to the save file and removes the padding.
### Other ways of doing this
This can be done manually by removing the padding using a hex editor.
Or using dd like this (on linux/macos)
```bash
dd if=Pokemon.dsv of=Pokemon.sav bs=1 count=524288
```
This will make a 4KiB EEPROM save from drastic to melonDS save.
I will add argparse later.
