hactool is a tool to view information about, decrypt, and extract common file formats for the Nintendo Switch, especially Nintendo Content Archives.

It is heavily inspired by [ctrtool](https://github.com/profi200/Project_CTR/tree/master/ctrtool).

## Building

Copy `config.mk.template` to `config.mk`, make changes as required, and then run `make`.
If your `make` is not GNU make (e.g. on BSD variants), you need to call `gmake` instead.

If on Windows, I recommend using MinGW.

## External Keys

External keys can be provided by the -k/--keyset argument to the a keyset filename.
Keyset files are text files containing one key per line, in the form "key_name = HEXADECIMALKEY".
Case shouldn't matter, nor should whitespace.

In addition, if -k/--keyset is not set, hactool will check for the presence of a keyset file
in $HOME/.switch/prod.keys (or $HOME/.switch/dev.keys if -d/--dev is set). If present, this file
will automatically be loaded.
