-i, --infile=VALUE              Input string table file.
-o, --outfile=VALUE             Output string table file.
-t, --textfile=VALUE            Input/output text file name. If not specified, defaults to name of input string table with extension .txt.
-a, --addlines                  Add lines from text file to string table as strings. Settings this sets -e to false.
-e, --exportlines               Export strings from string table to lines in a text file.
-l, --language-override=VALUE   Set to an integer to override saved string table language ID. Valid values range from 0 to 9 and special value of -1 (language independent).
-d, --debug-logging             If set, writes a log to a file in program directory.

The text files to convert into string table should contain string labels and values in format LABEL|VALUE, each on their own line. Characters \n together get converted into a newline.
